I tried sending to fake addresses like XOXOXOXOXBURNADDRESSXOXOXOXOXO0000 or S000BURN0ADDRESS000000000000000000

You could always create a new wallet, and transfer coins to it and delete the wallet key from your system. Would definitely ensure no one gets those coins in the future.

Just send them to a random address 
, as long as nobody has the private keys to that address (and won't generate them in the future) nobody will be able to access the coins.

Otherwise, nobody can be sure, whether the random address is in fact random, or you actually hold the privkey to it.
