A combination of the words "Fake" and "guru". Commonly attributed to people who run ads on YouTube or Instagram and act like they make millions in a field Luke dropshipping or day trading and you can too, all you have to do is buy their useless $2000 course that teaches you nothing.

Furu is a Norwegian word for being an extremely good lover, but was in May of 1994 chosen to represent a translation for the english for for Pine(wood).
"Ive never been with someone who's that furu" , "oh my god hes a furu!" or "he/she was a furu, it was awesome"
After May 1994 these examples came along:
"I need to wax my new pain table" or "is there any pine in this forest?"
