Someone who pretends to hate anything mainstream, just so they can look cool or like they're punk.
Billie Joe doesn't want to watch Titanic, because he is a hardcore poseur. Yet he has no problem with watching Twilight.

Simply put, crappy punk-rock music.
I think it's funny how 'punks' bitch about how poseur a certain band is, or how band X "is SO much more punk" than band Y, when in reality these 'poseur punk bands' are simply CRAPPY punk bands.

A person who emulates a Goth for the attention or as a rebellion against their parents.

One who begins to act straight edge for fashion, rather than physical or emotional health. Usually poseur straight edges can be identified by being 13-15, ages when most have no choice but to be straight edge, but few choose to flaunt it. Pen-drawn X's on the back of the hands are one of the only things that is similar between a real straight edge and a poseur straight edge. Poseur straight edges are essentially whatever clic the individual was before they found that marker, plus two black x's. These kids usually are not part of the hardcore scene in itself, but try to salvage their integrity by listening to watered-down, cookie cutter hardcore music.
Ernest: Hey! That kid looks hardcore straightedge! Oh wait! He is wearing dickies shorts and 130 dollar skater shoes and he has blonde hair! Whoops!

A highlight reel frame by frame.
This is the poseur's skiing trip (the one where the man with no face at the drive thru served her kids french fries), this is her scuba trip, this is her college graduation, this is all highlight reel stuff frame by frame instead of projected as a continuous motion picture. A poseur photo album if I ever saw one.

Someone that is not who they say they are.
The poseur called the skyline of the state capital their skyline, (as she wasn't originally from the state capital, and it really was their skyline, the people originally from the state capital) but convienently neglected to call the skyline of the state's largest city their skyline too, (as she wasn't originally from the state's largest city either, and it really was their skyline, the people originally from the state's largest city) instead calling it "our" skyline to make herself appear to be less of an outsider to locals she was trying to walk all over by benefitting from being seen as one of their own (though she was not, she wasn't who she said she was).
