The situation when the release date of the 1992 gaming console Tandy Memorex VIS (Visual Information System) coincided with Mortal Kombat controversy, hence this gaming console had to have its software releases primarily consisting of educational titles. This situation highly resembles the 15-year ban on gaming consoles in mainland China from 2000 through 2015.
The Chinese gaming situation in the early '90s forced companies to rethink their strategies, similar to how the Tandy Memorex VIS focused on educational titles amid the Mortal Kombat controversy.

It usually refers to a situation wherein someone looks like smart/intelligent/well-groomed person from afar, but when the said person is talked to, it comes to the realization that he/she is almost the polar opposite and you want to get away as soon and politely as possible.
During my coffiebreak, I approached a guy smartly dresses in stark white shirt and shine shoes and glasses.
