faux vibe

When you thought your cell phone vibrated in your pocket but it didn't, and what's worse-- it's not even in that pocket.

Dude I think I need to go to the doctor, I've been getting faux vibes all day.

Faux-Locks

Tightly curly hair that gathers together, though able to be washed and brushed out.

I sported Faux-Locks all summer just because I was too lazy to style my hair.

Fauxcinating

Falsely fascinating or interesting. To fake fascination or interest in something.

So I went on this date and all he could do was talk about himself. He was so self-centered that he couldn't pick-up on the fact I was fauxcinating the whole time.
After listening to their story for 20 minutes about how great their trip to Fuddruckers was, I told them their story was so fauxcinating.

McDisney Faux

Any artifice created as a mass-market product with endless cross-marketing possibilities, while making a reference to McDonald's and Disney's business practices..

The lobby in that hotel is awesome, but if you look closely it's totally McDisney Faux.

The wood isn't wood, it's hollow concrete textured and painted to look just like wood.

TikTok faux jock

A person on the social media app TikTok who creates fake videos showing merchandise that is popular with TikToks youngest users such as Apple iPhones and Airpods and says they are giving them away to each person that follows, likes, shares and comments. They also do livestreams where they tell users that are viewing that they will give them the merchandise if the user "gifts" them a "drama queen"($50) which they do, and never get the merchandise because the TikTok faux jock never had the merchandise to begin with. This type of TikTok #fakeclout hustle and livestream scam is almost exclusively done by teenage boys targeting pre-teen to teenage girls as seen in many of Verified TikTok "star" Brandon Mandaras page and livestreams.

Brandon Mandera: Yo, I'm giving away all these phones! Do you want one? All you gotta do is Follow me, share this video, like this video, like all of my other TikToks, follow me on Insta-gram then comment when done, I'll know if your lying so hurry up and do it!

12-year old girl: Done! I want an iPhone please! Mines broke and I really need one.

TikTok Gamer: OMG! you don't believe that TikTok faux jock do you? its a scam smh.....

Fauxcial Media

Contrived, inauthentic or misleading use of social media resources such as online communities, blogs, Twitter profiles, Wikipedia entries, Facebook pages, etc. to manipulate or to create a false or misleading perception of a company, organization, candidate or cause.

Fauxcial Media is the "Web 2.0" equivalent of atroturfing i.e., the creation of fake grassroots campaigns in PR/Public Relations.

WHAT CONSTITUTES FAUXCIAL MEDIA:

• Businesses pretending to be bloggers.
• Businesses pretending to be journalists.
• Businesses pretending to be “Joe Blow” in order to flog their products in blog comments.

EXAMPLES OF FAUXCIAL MEDIA:

- Cisco's Human Network - wrote all Cisco-related Wikipedia entries; had vloggers try to write about the Human Network. Got themselves to #2 in Google organic search

- Whole Foods CEO John Mackey used an alias to ding detractors on forums

- "Wal-Marting Across America" used a real journalist and real photographer, but set them up as simply Wal-Mart fans, traveling across America, parking their RV at Wal-Mart parking lots.
