Anyone that is insecure about who they are inside. People that arent sure what they want to be like and are trying to blend in. Usually, you can tell right off the bat who is a poser. I have a friend that dresses ghetto-like, skates horribly and trys to blend in with us rockers.
Those posers are damn jocks, I HATE JOCKS!

Posers are people who "pose" as something they're not, pretend to look like a group of people, like punks, headbangers or stoners, usually related to music.
That was the simple way, now here's the real definition, according to me: Posers are usually people that don't fit in, so trying to fit in, they act like the people around them, pretending to like the music, have the attitude, and also dressing like them. I will use as an example the tipical poser stoner.
A lot of people don't like stoners, is it because they smoke weed, act like that or because they think that stoners are hippies or something like that, but i think stoners are cool people to be around, i would actually call myself one. But the poser stoner don't really think like his friends, so here are some of the things a poser stoner usually do:
smoke weed as a drug, not as a way to think about life and have fun
Struggle through Dark Side of The Moon and call himself a Pink Floyd fan, and when someone is talking about pink floyd, all he has to say is "they're great! i love their attitude! DSOTM is a great album!"
Can't chill and listen to a Jimi Hendrix song, he has to headbang or air guitar his way through the song
Fills his Ipod with Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix songs, even though he hasn't listened to any of those since he was in his friend's.
Thinks surfing is a way to show off to his/her friends
If offered some drug as meth, coke or crack, he/she would deffinitely do it
That's all i know about posers, if you spot one, fuck him, let it be

Someone who spends all or most of their time trying to find out whats "cool" or "in". Once they know what is "in" they do it no matter what their personal veiws on it are. Posers usually pose off of what is on MTV or VH1 or their local "hot" radio station, because they think they will be accepted for it. Normally posers also take whatever they are posing off of to an abnormal and unhealthy extreme. Posers change their style to fit what's "cool". They are usually the losers who have a myspace and comment the people who origionally wore the style they pose off of saying "I LOVE YOU SOOO MUCH!!<33" even though they either don't know them, or the origional hates them. Posers often have "myspace pics" or "emo pics" on their myspace. They are often always hated by everyone else they know except their poser friends. Posers also sometimes write and/or talk in "internet lingo" while not on the internet. Most also over use the famous comeback of "your mom".

POSER

Someone who has no personality of their own and follows the fad just so they can follow everyone else and agree with the majority of the group even if they believe in something else.
Most of the people who put their pic under gangsta. People who joined MySpace or anything else like that just because everyone else is unless they joined before it became a "fad" or because their friends wouldn't stop buggin them to join.

A word used by teenagers to describe other teenagers; usually to make themselves feel more secure about themselves. Apparently if a teen can spot a "poser", they're automatically cool.
1. "Oh my god, tell that girl to remove her Anarchy shirt. If she believed in Anarchy, she wouldn't be at school! What a poser!"
2. "That girl is wearing fairy wings, and you know, since Hot Topic sells fairy stuff, that means that fairies represent the underground punk sub-culture, therefor that girl is a POSER! You hear that, poser!? You can't wear fairy wings! You're not punk!"
3. "That girl says she's gothic, yet she has never heard of the band Bauhaus. What a poser! She's just another wrist-slicing attention whore poser!"
4. "You dyed your hair black! Poser!"
5. "Wow, Jessica. You should really stop calling people posers to make yourself feel better. It's only making you look bad. No wonder you have no friends."
