fauxbola 

The moment that someone has a small cough or sniffle, that they believe they have ebola and have to announce it to the world.

Jimmy let out a loud sneeze on the train before announcing to the crowd 'I probably have Ebola you know' but in reality he was just suffering from fauxbola.

fauxboyant 

Pseudo-flamboyant, often applicable to gay community members displaying opulence beyond their means

"Jonathan" was so fauxboyantly pleased with his new smart phone after his theatrical phone smashing party trick, he raced off in his fancy car, but he was soon sulking as he couldn't afford to pay for them... Poor boy.

Fauxbulary

Definition:
1. The compulsive habit of swapping out plain, honest English words for imported, outdated, or pseudo-technical terms ("the tarmac," "bespoke," "kit," "architected") purely to project unearned wealth, intelligence, or executive status.
2. A person who speaks almost entirely in counterfeit luxury vocabulary; a linguistic social climber.

"Rick told the team he had to 'architect a bespoke strategy' before his driver met him on 'the tarmac.' The man is drowning in his own fauxbulary."

"Drop the fauxbulary, Dave. You’re standing on concrete in an airport parking lot, not filming Succession."
