Phoney Baloney 

A substitute to the word "lie/s" and to a extent "bullshit". When presented with false-hood information and wanting to declare that all that was said is classified as a lie.

Thats "phoney baloney" to your claim of being hurt from my mini jab to your shoulder

phoney-bologna 

Pronounced "fō'nē-bu-lō'nē".
How some people spell the phrase, "phony-baloney" -- which means nonsensical and/or foolish
{From a website featuring staged "battles" between TV commercial mascots}:

That goddamn sodding phoney-bologna fake CGI "General" gets out of the gates first because that goddamn sodding phoney-bologna fake Honey Nut Cheerios® Bee is trapped in the cereal cabinet by the family cat which has decided that now would be a good time to spray the cabinet doors.

phoney call 

When you "answer" your cell phone even though it did NOT ring, in order to avoid speaking to someone annoying (1) who has walked up to you, or (2) called you on your phone.
Phoney calls:

(1)

{Annoying person walks up to you and starts talking}
"Hi, how's it going?"

{You} "Wait, hold one, my cell phone is vibrating."
{Reach into pocket, pull out phone, flip it open} "Oh man, I'm gonna have to take this. Sorry. We'll talk later.
{Walk away and fake a phone conversation}

(2)

{Someone annoying calls you from a NEW phone number, that you do NOT have programmed into your phone, so you "accidentally" answer it to see who it is}

{Annoying person} "Hi. How's it going?"

{You} "Oh great. Wait. Hey, I got another call coming in, it's pretty important, so I guess I'm gonna have to let you go. Sorry. Call back soon. Bye. {You hang up and NEVER answer that phone number again!}
