Faux Outrage

Pretending one is offended, insulted or generally affronted by something which they really are not. The faux outrage is usually expressed publicly because it is done in the service of an agenda. Those expressing faux outrage usually labor under the delusion that no one can see through them, but most can.
The professional protesters went down to City Hall today to express their opposition to bill 1234. They were drinking coffee and playing marbles until the tv station got there, then all three of them sprung into action and began waving signs and displaying faux outrage after the camera was turned on.

Faux Vegan

A person who wants to be a vegan and wants to be known as a vegan, yet is okay with eating muffins that contain eggs and dairy. A faux vegan does not always read food labels. Also, a man who is probably an omnivore or a vegetarian, but says he is vegan to date a vegan woman who will not date a vegan man. This man thinks so highly of himself that he thinks the vegan woman will be so blown away by his charm that she will throw her convictions to the wind and date him even if he eats a steak in front of her.
Dax: Belle is hot. I am going to ask her out.
Avery: Belle will only date vegan men.
Dax: Oh, well I like vegetables and I don't eat that much meat.

Avery: A true vegan eats no animal products at all, including dairy, honey, and eggs. They also do not wear any animal products or use anything containing animal products or tested on animals. She does not want to date a faux vegan. I. on the other hand, am a true vegan as I refuse to contribute to animal suffering in any way. I will ask her out.

Originated on the radio show "Loveline", hosted by Dr. Drew Pinsky and Adam Carolla. Refers specifically to Drew's high school, but can be used to denote any fancy-pants school that caters to spoiled rich kids.
Right, but where Drew went, the Little Lord Fauntleroy School for Albino Hemophiliacs, the mascot was Lord Jeff. Lord Jeff?! You have a dead white guy as your mascot?
