A phrase pawned by the animated band Gorillaz a short time before the release of their second album, Demon Days. According to Guitarist Noodle, "Reject False Icons means many things. Think for yourself is one of them."
It is often preluded with the phrase "Respect false icons," the full phrase becoming "Respect false icons, reject false icons." A generally accepted idea is that the phrase was created to show that people should appreciate things such as music and the media, but not idolize them as they would God or religion.
Sadly, however, many Gorillaz fans have accepted the phrase as a use to describe any "posuer" artist or one they do not like as a false icon (I.E. Avril Lavigne, Hillary Duff, Eminem) and continue to worship Gorillaz, thus destroying the whole meaning of the phrase.
Ironically, these fans repeat the phrase mindlessly in a manner resembling that of the zombified heads in the Gorillaz website-exclusive "Rock it" video used to promote the Reject False Icons campaign.

A Toronto urban myth, supposedly a large half man half bear that breathes fire and has the ability to manipulate your mind in a way similar to large quantities of LSD. Supposedly has fought a pack of wolves, a tiger, a lion, and the three bears simultaneously. Also said to have survived being hit by a moving truck, the truck was destroyed, he didn't have a scratch.
I'm sick of hearing all these stupid exaggerated stories about "Faisel Jaffer" clearly he didn't do any of this stuff, and clearly hes not a real person

Get the failest mug.Opposite of a true fact.
It’s an antifact built on believing of someone about something or created to diminish the role of a true fact .
Sometimes, opinion repeatedly repeated becomes a false fact.
