One of the hippest, newest dating trends where one rejects a date because they think the other person is not taking COVID-19 protocols seriously
Friend 1: I was watching Fox News and they said the Fauci-ing is the newest dating trend.
Friend 2: What is Fauci-ing?
Friend 1: I dunno, sounds kind of made up
(Verb)
Making a statement, while signaling that whatever that statement is, the reverse can be the actual truth. A form of gaslighting and with the known assumption that whatever is being stated, it's a given that the person likely means the opposite of what they are saying. Then later flip flopping and doing a 180 on the logic...leaving some doubt about the topic and not knowing what is up and what is down.
Tony was really FAUCI-ING when he stated that mask wearing was not needed, then a few months later states that not only is mask wearing needed, it's immensely critical that we wear multiple masks.

"Tony was really FAUCI-ING when he stated that mask wearing was not needed, then a few months later states that not only is mask wearing needed, it's immensely critical that we wear multiple masks."
A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.
For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
