fauxnouns

pronounced 'fo-nouns,' like pronouns

Usually, in social media bios, when people you have not come out to follow you and believe you identify as cisgender (or anything else on the gender spectrum). They are your fake pronouns, i.e. faux/fake (pro)nouns.

added bonus: it rhymes with pronouns :)
Person: wait doesn't Sam go by they/them pronouns?
You: yes they do!
Person: then why on their Instagram does it say she/her?
You: oh dude those are their fauxnouns
Persons: Oh I see

Fauxcore

Fauxcore /fau-kohr/ is an amalgam of the French word for fake or false, and the term hardcore, a word to describe to describe players who participate at the cutting edge of Raiding. Fauxcores are players who complain about 'welfare epics', raid finder, and other game modes that somehow make them seem (in their sad, silly little minds) less like a special snowflake, while lacking either the accomplishments of a true hardcore raider or is able to hide their lack of true skill in 25 man raiding. While the term fauxcore is about World of Warcraft players, it can be apllied to any MMORPG or any other game where an easier mode might superficially grant a similar gaming experience to someone who spend hours playing and are at the top.
Nizokang sure like to complain on the offical World of Warcraft forums about welfare epics and raid finder breaking the game, but he a fauxcore who has never seen the inside of a heroic raid.

fauxno

Mellissa stated talking about Nepal and being Kathmandu but it was all fauxno cause I know the place having lived there for months at a time, what she described just does not exist at the time she claims. She really has no idea. I wish she would just stop fauxnoing these types of things. It comes from a fractured ego I recon.
