An activity that involves being packed up by your city slicker friends and towed 4 hours away to an place almost as urban as the one you just left to spend the weekend in a "cabin" that is nicer than your own house. There you spend 2 days watching your city slicker friends occupy themselves with the hot-tub (what is so fun about sitting in hot water?), going to local wineries (ick), and fussing over there 4 small dogs who hate the outdoors and shake as if they having a seizure whenever they must venture outside the "cabin".
Boy, I sure am glad I had that extra $150 to drop on listening to you and your dogs whine every time there is a bug withing 35 feet. I LOVE FAUX CAMPING...not.

When a person behaves as if they are sick to give the appearance of having the flu. In reality this person is not sick but wants others to think they are for some sort of personal gain.
She: Wow, isn't our coworker really sick today, she sounds terrible.
He: Oh no, she is fine.
She: I don't think so did you hear her cough?
He: Yes I did, but it's just the faux flu. She has a big party to attend tonight and is setting up for a sick day tomorrow.

when a tourist poses as a resident of the country they're visiting, because they don't like people to know they're tourist or just because they're pretentious.
They tend to act casual, don't ask for directions and try not to be seen with maps, guides, cameras, gift shop bags or any other item that can reveal they're on vacation.

"Every time I go to New York, I become a faux resident. I hate when people know I'm a tourist."
Hey Kim, I think that guy is trying to glance at his city guide without getting caught. He's definitely a faux resident.

When you hate your job so much that you pretend to take a poo when all your doing is playing on your phone.
