fauxcoder

Vocoder-esque effect on vocals you get when using Autotune with a fast response. Works better if the singer has almost perfect pitch as having bumpy pitch can make it modulate weirdly and just give the obvious message of "YOU CAN'T SING".
Kayne West is the notorious Daft Punk-esque fauxcoder expert.

Person 1: I got this awesome vocoder effect when I used pitch correction on my vocals.

Person 2: Can't you have just used a vocoder instead?

Person 1: Well, it's a fauxcoder then!

Person B: No, I'm focusing on this calculus.

fauxcus

Combination of "focus" and "faux," describing the act of pretending to pay attention in class while you're doing something else. Well-timed nods at important assertions and brows furrowed in intellectual curiosity go a long way toward indicating that you are actively engaged in the class conversation. In truth, however, you may be texting, emailing, or shopping for shoes.

Maintaining proper fauxcus, Johnny was walking on the razor's edge: While gorging himself on epic fail videos of kittens trying to pounce on each other, he appeared to the professor to be actively engaged in the class conversation.

fauxcast

Fauxcasting is the practice (some would say the art) of creating a revenue or sales forecast to meet some predefined number, rather than actually building it up from assumptions on the market or marketing plan. A fauxcast differs from a forecast in that it attempts to create the future rather than predict it.

Well, engineering missed the ship date, so we're going to have to spend all day updating the sales fauxcast to make the goal without new features.
