Faux Call

A fake phone call you take on your cell phone when either a.) you see someone coming you don't want to talk to, or b.) you want to end a conversation abruptly.
"That stupid ass mascot at the ballgame came over to fuck with me again!" "Fortunately I was able to whip out my cell & take a Faux Call and that goody bastard ignored me"

faux celebrity

People who are "famous" for absolutely no legitimate reason. Reality TV "stars" and YouTube "stars" are the primary demographic for faux celebrity status because their only real claim to fame is from playing out (usually) scripted, idiotic life scenarios for the sole entertainment of the masses that eat it up like an ice cream sundae. They generally get paid big money for creating garbage viewing.
YouTubers and Reality TV people aren't "real" celebrities. They're a faux celebrity because there's no real reason for them to be famous.

Dave is such a faux-waiian, he acts like he is from the islands even though he has never left Detroit.

faux sotto voce

An aside, like sotto voce, but spoken loudly enough that the person who is the subject can hear it, unlike sotto voce.
He spoke to them about me, but in a faux sotto voce for me to overhear: "Somebody doesn't know their place."
