1. A person who buys a band t-shirt to try and be trendy.
Soundgarden’s badmotorfinger t-shirt was worn by a Kardashian on insta so top shop will stock it suddenly and 17 year old airhead posers will buy it.
One who attempts to make friends or become closer friends with a group of people by feigning interest in a particular area of culture (music, clothing, social activities).
Generally a poser is someone who lacked friends for not fitting in with any real group, they decided to become more like everyone to make friends. Sometimes they actually do become legitimately interested in the new groups lifestyle, but oftentimes they only pretend and lead a life of lies
"John thinks he's a punk rocker, I asked him about punk rock music, and he told me all about 'Teenagers' by My Chemical Romance and 'Know Your Enemy' by Green Day. I asked him what his other favorite songs by those bands were and he told me he thought they were one-hit wonders. I guess he's a bit of a poser"
Sidenote: Green Day is awesome but if you only listen to their most recent two albums, then you can't call yourself a fan... or knowledgeable about the subject.
Typically and Ass Man.
Often times a Tess.
Damn that poser drinking beer at work.
People who copy terms on UD to try and stay relevant.
Yo, that whiteboys slang wasn't even correct. What a poser. He probably got his slang from UrbanDictionary.
Not to be confused with a beginner, a poser is that kid at the skate park that sits on every obstacle with a skateboard but never rides it and then says that he tre flipped a 7 stair
skater: hey man look at this clip.
Poser: that's cool but I dolphin flipped that same 12 stair
Someone who is only slightly into a hobby simply so they can act as though they’re an expert in it and have an excuse once they are called a poser
Dang he’s such a cheap poser. He’s only been a skater for a week and he acts like he’s a pro
