faux flu

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?

Her - We could eat at La Perla...
Him - Fuck that, no self respecting caballero would eat a lobster and prime rib burrito - that shit is faux mex.

Him - Nice call.

faux resident

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.
