Fakebook 

A digital pseudo-reality boasting your 'Real IP Address Self' has hundreds of close human 'friends' beyond those you actually have. Yet, the preponderance of these are anomalous entities, much like avatars or quintessences of the collective imagination of those involved. These pixel-meld hallucinations are typically of someone you have never met, never will, or even if you did, you wouldn't recognize each other, which proves the point entirely. 'Friends' are virtual, semi-actualized characters who 'liked' something you said in a lucid moment; are attracted to someone you resembled; were amused by a photo you posted; or related to purported fun or drama.

But since they are never online after befriending you (& they think you are weird if you write them later or think they are actually there) it shows you have bought into this parallel macrocosm of distortedly amplified friendship. Participation severely underlines your extreme insecurity about having few or no 'real' friends since you are willing to make friends with anyone under the slightest pretext & even buy into a scam that gives you a warm, fuzzy sensation of being part of a benign worldwide social network (that may not even include your actual family & friends), but is mainly trying to sell you stuff via tailored ads that materialize on the right, regarding everything you talk about. Just post any word that crosses your mind to see behind the fabric of this lucrative venture. Ka-ching!

Q: You spend all day on FakeBook! We never go out anymore!
A: I Unfriended you on FakeBook long ago! Why are you still here?

Fakebook marriage 

A combination of the words "Facebook" and "fake." Describes a false relationship status showing your relationship status on Facebook as married, when you are not actually married to the person. It can discourage people from hitting on you but more then likely you just married your best friend to avoid posting your actual relationship status on Facebook.

"I love my Fakebook marriage: I didn't want that guy to bug me about our relationship status on Facebook. Thank god I told him I'm married to my best friend and it would hurt her feelings if we broke it off."

Fakebooking 

The act of intentionally misrepresenting your appearance on Facebook to hide that you are fat. This person will engage in the act of photo manipulation such as cropping out anything below the shoulders in pictures. The lower half of their body would show that they are clearly not hot, but they are more concerned with keeping up with appearances on Facebook than hitting an elliptical.

Guy1: Who is that girl with ----- in that picture? She's hot.

Guy2: That girl!? Don't let her fool you, she is always fakebooking.

Fakebook 

Posting only good things (upgraded photos and cheery texts) that make your life look better than it really is. Half-truths...the good stuff happened, but all negatives are nowhere to be seen.

My husband and I had a huge fight, and are on the verge of splitting up, but you will see cutesy the posed pictures from the party we went to on Saturday. I posted them on Fakebook..

fakebook 

Any social media site that irresponsibly allows fake news to be easily and quickly disseminated to hundreds of millions. By doing so, democratic elections are influenced in favor of candidates and their followers who are willing to lie pathologically, repeatedly spread false rumors and race-bait. These sites and their purveyors of fake news consequently create an existential crisis for responsible journalism, the people of the United States and, now that I think about it, the entire world.

He voted for that misogynistic, racist, Islamaphobic, narcissistic, unstable bully because he read on Fakebook that his opponent knew someone who went to dinner with a Muslim.
