Someone more desperate than anybody to prove to others that they are a wonderful, colorful person.
The poseur worked hard at being loose all her life, so that people would like/love her. She always said she didn't care what anybody thought, or preached to everyone about how they should all be themselves and stop trying to prove they were good people, but really she was more desperate than anybody to convince others she didn't care what anybody thought. There were those of them that could see through the rungs in her ladder, as she could see through the rungs in theirs.

Get the Poseur mug.
Someone that claims to not care what anybody thinks or about the social status of others, but for some strange reason still tries to tease/make fun of others and make themself look fun/exciting/adventurous/daring in comparison to the other person in the process.
The poseur could see the rungs in everyone's life advancement ladder but his/her own.

Someone that doesn't like their own shit, they like what they think other people would like, so that other people will like them.
Bach von Hitler never liked Nirvana as a kid, she liked Barney the Purple Dinosaur and Lil Kim, but now she's claiming to be a Nirvana fan because her brother she never got along with influenced her taste in music, which is bullshit coming from a poseur's mouth of the south, and trying to draw attention to the gift horse's mouth, as always.

Get the poseur mug.
Someone that has a different name, look/image, and language than the one they spoke as a kid (a language more like an imitation of someone else's) to get liked/accepted by others more than they were as a kid.
He/she must have wanted to be a poseur when he/she grew up, because he/she is speaking in someone else's tongue instead of his/her own, but then again he/she always imitated other people growing up too, without really ever being someone that other people thought about imitating as a kid.

Get the Poseur mug.
Someone that wants to look and sound the part without really being it.
The girl got a beanie with a crocheted visor to prove she didn't wear a beret and wasn't a snob, not because she actually delivered newspapers, magazines, phone books, or any other periodicals for work as a young boy/girl, a teenager, or even a 20 something, because she was a desperate poseur. She had actually always had more money than the people she was trying to make fun of, but wanted to look tougher because she thought she really was tougher.

Someone that goes the Joan Rivers route after trying the high route and every other route. Someone that made fun of something or someone, then turned into it.
The poseur always used to make fun of people that were different or not like him/her at school, next thing you know, he/she is claiming to be different/colorful/quirky in another town than the one he/she went to school in where hardly anybody from his/her town knows him/her well enough (from childhood) to notice this bullshit. Now he/she goes by a different name and image, one closer to an imitation of the people he/she once made fun of.

Get the Poseur mug.
Someone that always tries to overrun or overpower people they don't gain stripes with, refusing to take rejection for an answer.
That poseur got rejected like Mutombo in NBA Jam, get that poseur shit out of here. Then he/she came back trying overrun or overpower all the people that once rejected him/her trying to force them to say yes instead of eat him/her alive, until he/she ended up replacing the people that once rejected him/her, that was his/her ladder to success and a new world order where he/she was the one that rejected other people, and not the other way around.
