A real-fake is anything that is fundamentally fake, but is still treated legitimately real in certain contexts. Real-fakes are different from knock-offs, which approximate the real thing, but never claim to actually be the real thing.
These bootleg Wayfarers aren't knockoffs, they're real-fakes because they have the Ray-Ban logo on them and they are cosmetically similar to genuine Ray-Bans, so that the glasses appear real.
My girlfriend and I got real-fake married to qualify for better financial aid. In principle and on paper, our marriage is real, but in practice we're still just dating.
In college, I lived with 14 of my friends in a single house. We jokingly decided to make it a real-fake fraternity and hang letters over the balcony, but the experience was almost like living in a real one.

Get the Fake indiemug. Fake Thursday is the phenomenon in which, on any given Wednesday, at some point you will think (or say), "at least tomorrow is Friday!". And then you will realize you are a victim of "Fake Thursday".
