fauxhemian

A conformist passing herself off as a nonconformist by going to great lengths to conform to an allegedly nonconforming alternative conformity rather than conforming to the mainstream conformity that she thinks is stiflingly conformist.

Marked by a notable lack of originality and creativity, an absence of genuine artistic talent, and carefully maintained escape routes so that she can give up the game when it stops being convenient.

It costs her a lot of money to look so down-and-out." "Yeah, fauxhemianism is an expensive lifestyle.

fauxhemian

Conforming to a safe, middle class lifestyle but with the superficial pretense of an alternative or Bohemian lifestyle.

People who live in Stoke Newington or read The Guardian may like to believe they maintain the values of their radical student days but the shallowness of their fauxhemian conceit would quickly be revealed if they were expected to sacrifice some aspect of their comfortable lives.

Fauxlonial

adj. - used to describe any single family, free standing house built AFTER colonial times in the United States, but still having atavistic design characteristics of actual colonial houses. Somehow this style represents about 80% of current housing stock, thus representing a stagnation in architectural design for the last 232 years.

I'm so sick of looking at fauxlonial crap. I would much rather live in a modern house.

Australia is leading the world in residential design because they are not burdened with propagating fauxlomialism,

fauxhemian

Fauxhemian, or fauxbo, refers to wealthy people and places that carry a pretense of artistic sophistication. Fauxhemians think they are artsy, when really they are more fartsy, as their great wealth and comfortable lifestyles keep them from authentic expression, familiarity with the street, and any real impetus to truly oppose the system (since they still benefit too much from it).

Hipster #1-"Shopping at Whole Foods does not make you an intellectual. There isn't even a decent music venue in this town."
Hipster #2-"Yeah, Pasadena is so fucking fauxhemian."
Hipster #1-"Yeah, let's go to Glendale, that's where the REAL revolution is gonna take place."
Hipster #2-"Fuck yeah, Glendale is indie-tastic!"
