one trying to be what one does not know anything about. emos are commonly called posers. nobody says anything about the random dorks who buy purses from american eagle its always the kids that try to fit in with a group that is frowned down upon that get called posters. Posers try hard to be something so that they will be excepted i have a certain amount of sympathy for such people and yet they still piss me off. posers are also known as nobodys, wanna be's, never has beens, clueless, shameful, and or misserably lost
example:Jess is such a "POSER",yesterday she was wearing faded blue jeans and a babyblue t-shirt, today she is wearing tripp pants and a my chemical romance t-shirt, she has a thick layer of eye liner under her eyes, i wonder what she's trying to prove,what a "poser "

Since punk began, a poser could be defined variously as somebody who thinks Avril Lavigne is "punk," goes to Warped Tour to see Yellowcard while ignoring The Damned, is straight-edge for all the wrong reasons, identifies as punk but is scared of the pit, listens to emo convinced that men with slicked-down bangs and lyrics about trivial high school crushes are huge emotional dramas, etc etc... While the term is useful in delineating false punks from those who truly make the effort to live a DIY lifestyle, ultimately, EVERYBODY is a poser, especially anyone who preaches tolerance while judging what's punk and what's not, makes arbitrary judgments based on a zine's recommendation, or god forbid, looks up punk terms online.
Get real, poser!

One who acts like someone they are not and tries really hard at it, usually to fit in with a specific group. Also, someone who says they are part of a certain group, but really acts alot like they are part of another.

Posers are sort of jive turkeys, they have a phobia of showing their true selves to the world, therefore; to counter-balance their fear, they try to fit-in by appealing to society and swallowing whatever the media shoves down their throats.
Alex is a preppy guy with almost no style that listens to whatever music his big brother listens to. One day, Alex becomes friends with Roger. Roger on the other hand has mad style, does graffiti and listens to underground RAP. A week later, Alex decides to start dressing up like Roger, listen to the same music and also claims to have a passion for graffiti...
Now my friends, this is a perfect example of a poser. Someone who's affraid to be judged, and rathers blending in... In sum, alex is a Robot, a society drone, an empty soul.

Someone who thinks about what they want to be (punk,goth,ghetto, etc.) They are called posers and they piss off the real goths, emos, ghetto, etc. You have to grow into something, not choose it.
