An "article", usually online, that pretends to be informative but is full of hot air. They are often written by people who sound like they know what they are talking about, but are full of so much false information that they stink.
1) I read a gardening farticle claiming this native plant is invasive, so they clearly don't know the definition of an invasive species.
2) That "scientific" farticle referenced studies that actually had nothing to do with the topic.
When, after releasing a cloud of farticles, you suddenly get up from your chair and walk across the room or office, trailing a cloud of farticulate matter behind you and contaminating the vicinity.
