A person that is trying to appear eclectic in their fashion, social, pop culture, musical or other choices, but in practice has simply adopted a common behavior that serves as an archetype or stereotype of a true eclectic. See as reference most hipsters.
That group of girls with their chokers and peasant skirts riding those bikes to the coffee shop are so faux-clectic.

Get the Faux Finish mug.When someone pretends to be high, when really they aren't. The truth is, they're too afraid to actually do drugs, so they trick others into thinking that they're high. To do that, they act very high, such as air-heady.

Get the Faux-High mug.Fake hardcore, also for screamo and metalcore. Taking classic 80's and 90's hardcore, screamo, and metallic hardcore (metalcore), by completely debauching the subgenre(s) from over use of "break downs", unnecessary clean vocals, weak death metal vocals/growls, unoriginal and overused "hardcore attitude" (ranging from tough guy, integrity, and "brotherhood" themed lyrics).
