Fugaze/Fugazi 

Slang
3. Fugazi was an American GI slang during the Vietnam war. "Fugazi" is an acronym which stands for "Fucked Up, Got Ambushed, Zipped In." It refers to out-of-control situation such as in a chaotic jungle warfare combat environment. See also: List of US Army acronyms

Also fake or phony; a wannabe; unoriginal
Not sure where all of these other, 'Hipster', fugaze/fugazi definitions originate on Urban Dictionary, but they don't illustrate the appropriate tone and meaning of the word. See what I did there? #trash #fake #fronters #lames

--- Etymology (Derived from) ---

Donnie Brasco (Movie - 1997) | From American-Italian slang Fugazi (“fake”); perhaps also slang version of fugacious derived from Latin fugac-, stem of fugāx (“ready to flee, flying”), hence, fleeting, transitory. (slang) Artificial, fake, false. Can be in reference to a thing or person. If a person it is usually in reference to a shady or superficial person. Also, something that has very little substance or intrinsic value.
