A "Pretendian" is a term often used by Indians to describe someone who falsely claims Indigenous ancestry or cultural identity without any legitimate basis. This term is often applied to individuals who disrespectfully appropriate/change Indigenous cultures or traditions for personal gain (in an effort to seem more exotic or interesting than they really are.)
Similar to a “pretendian”, Black Americans have a play on the term "Foundational Black Americans" (FBAs) — "Fossilized Black Americans."
Just like “Pretendians”, Fossilized Black Americans cling to any minuscule amount of African DNA remnant from their ancestors, to try to legitimately claim that they are part of the black identity in the present (Even if authentic, dark-skinned Black Americans don’t see them as black; Even when they don’t look black; Even when they’re extremely distanced from blackness and black culture)
They are fossils of the former identity that their ancestors embodied.

Interaction with The Problem Child who identifies them self by wearing a black coloured safety helmet.
Tom: "Hey, what's up with Olz? He's running towards that brick wall head first without wearing a helmet again?!"
Jerry: "He's just been black-hatted."
Tom: "Damn man. That explains it. We should pray for him."

"You can tell I'm actually depressed because I heckin' love Bojack Horseman! I actually get way sadder than he does. It's pretty cool."
"That guy is definitely black focusing on Bojack Horseman."

The hottest mythical creature of all time, but extremely overlooked. Total Gryffindor/Hufflepuff and a loving friend, lover, brother, father, son...you name it. Totally way better than Edward.

Some see it as a spiritual symbol from sightings in witch mountains to the words of the tora. It's said to have existed before the beginning of time, and it also used as a term to refer to tobacco disease. It has a lot of broad meaning it's even used as Starfire's older sister's name in Teen Titans. But in general it's simply a persona or a way to describe something Cool, attractive, abstract and mysterious. Something you'd call a calm yet fisty person as a compliment. Also a literal term for dim/dark fire with no light shining through it.
Examples:
Person 1- "Have you seen the chick?"
Person 2- "Ya she's a total Black Fire."
Example two-
*When you find a real blue sapphire*
Person- "Woah that's almost as rare as a natural black Fire"
