reaperduction
A "false profit" --- I mean, "prophet" --- who goes around impersonating "Da Grim One" in an effort to con hapless believers into converting to his religion, giving him what he wants, etc.
Warren Jeffs was an infamous example of a "reaperduction" in dat he went around spouting "doom 'n' gloom" sermons in order to unreasonably force his followers to bow to his will and do his bidding.

Gullible's Travels
What Jonathon Swift's "pygmies and giants" book should really be named, since you'd have to be outrageously naive to actually believe any of the crap that he relates.
If it would be possible to find someone who genuinely thought that the "Gullible's Travels" book was based on true events, you could likely also get him to swallow two additional "fanfic" chapters wherein the book's narrator also was able to assume ownership of the Brooklyn Bridge and establish a homestead in the Florida swamplands.

an eye for an aye
Some overly-confident guys think that they have "an eye for an aye" when they go out seeking gals with whom to get laid, but determining which chicks are actually that quick/casual about spreading their legs is usually quite a bit more difficult than that.

hireoglyphics
What da absurdly-complex questions on a job-application form might as well be for any ordinary person to "decipher".
I've occasionally been derisively upbraided about my inherent difficulty in obtaining employment ("You don't even know how to fill out a job application!"), yet whenever I snortingly retort, "Okay, well, if YOU'RE so smart and capable" and then ask said criticizing/ridiculing individuals to assist me with said writing task, they themselves are often unable to figger out da hireoglyphics on da forms, either!
