Fauxcha 

A Mocha-like drink using hot chocolate mix instead of fancy chocolate sauce for the base. A Fauxcha tastes very similar to a real mocha, except they are significantly cheaper. Not considered a legitimate espresso beverage to any coffee snob, so watch out. Pronounced Foh-Kha.

Bob: Wow! this Mocha is really good!

Coffee Snob: Hehem, that is NOT a Mocha you noob, it's a Fauxcha! loser.

After our dog ate our host's couch, we were on fauxcation.

My mother's endless nagging turned our beach trip into fauxcation.

• Businesses pretending to be bloggers.
• Businesses pretending to be journalists.
• Businesses pretending to be “Joe Blow” in order to flog their products in blog comments.

EXAMPLES OF FAUXCIAL MEDIA:

- Cisco's Human Network - wrote all Cisco-related Wikipedia entries; had vloggers try to write about the Human Network. Got themselves to #2 in Google organic search

- Whole Foods CEO John Mackey used an alias to ding detractors on forums

- "Wal-Marting Across America" used a real journalist and real photographer, but set them up as simply Wal-Mart fans, traveling across America, parking their RV at Wal-Mart parking lots.

fauxcaine

Poor Katy. She got ripped off by some dodgy street dealer who sold her $200 worth of fauxcaine. Everyone was so pissed - and now all I can smell is baking soda.

fauxcade

when the front of a building (let's say usually an apartment complex or a house that is now a rental property) is designed to look imposing or grand when viewed head on, but when viewed critically the rest of the building doesn't live up to the first impression.

Sure, the place I thought about renting had a nice fauxcade with decorative window guards, brickwork, flashy cornices, and elaborate drainspouts, but the sides of the place were covered in cheap, cracked vinyl siding.
