SomeBadJOKE's definitions
A name given to a person based on his/her fashion sense or musical tastes by people who think that:
A. Just because someone is wearing clothes from Hot Topic it means that they're trying to be goth, or
B. Just because someone listens to The Ramones it means that they're trying to be punk.
There are some more examples, but these are some of the more common ones. Most people that call others posers are saying that these people are trying to be goths or punks. These people never consider that maybe, just maybe.. these guys simply like the clothes or music!
It has nothing to do with what they want to BE, but simply what they LIKE, so they go ahead and do it. It's like assuming that just because a white guy wants to rap, that he's automatically a wigger. Rap doesn't automatically mean you're gonna speak in ebonics and rap about bitches and hoes, or how "gangsta" you are. Only when that IS the case.. you can go and call him a wigger, but otherwise, no.
It's the same with these so-called "goths" and "punks". A stud-belt from Hot Topic doesn't mean that person slits his wrists and cries all day because his life sucks, nor does liking the band Green Day mean that person wants to rebel against society, get a mohawk, and tell everyone else to fuck off.
However.. the easiest way to tell a true poser from a non-poser would be that, if a poser actually gets called a poser, he/she'd overreact quite angrily and surprised.

Get the Posermug. 1. A thrash metal band from the 1980's. Are widely known as one of the metal genre's biggest influences. Some of their best albums are Master of Puppets and their self-titled "Black Album", for those who would like a listen. However, these two albums are really their only good ones.
2. Along with Slayer, one of the most popular bands for "true metal fans" to mention when attempting to tell others not to listen to "fake nu metal". They're not even THAT great, guys. Only two of their albums are really worth mentioning - the ones mentioned above, and those are really old. Besides, they're sellouts themselves (see St. Anger)

1. Master of Puppets is Metallica's best album ever.
2. "Dont lizzen to teh Slippnot!!11 U msut get REEL metyl liek Metallica adn Slayer!!1 lolz!"

Get the Metallicamug. An empire of mostly average art, though there are quite a few that are good. Sadly, this empire is overruled by fanart rather than creative, original art. Anything else other than fanart hardly ever gets noticed.
Your drawing/photo/movie/poem may get viewed by some, but usually no more than 30 times. If you get a comment on it by someone, that's usually the last comment you'll ever get on it, unless you have some friends (AKA DeviantWatchers) that like your artwork. If you're lucky, it might even get a favorite.
On the other hand, if you submit a drawing of a character from, say, Full Metal Alchemist, or Inu Yasha, You may get as much as 100 views or more within the same hour that you submitted it. These usually get more comments and favorites, especially if you draw the male characters looking all bishie-like (The deviantart community is mostly girls, so it's natural that they'd like this kind of stuff).
Then there are the Deviants that are extremely popular and worshipped by thousands. I have no idea how they got this popular, but the case with these people is that, no matter WHAT they submit, no matter how stupid it looks, or how simple it is, it appears on the front page in the "Today's Favorites" section. Their artwork gets about 500 favorites per picture, as well as about 8 pages of comments by people saying how cute it is, how much they love Edward Elric, or how much they love the artist, despite the simplicity of the work. There ARE some photos/drawings/movies though which I agree deserve to be there, but most of them are just random new pictures submitted by "a popular artist"
There are some less-popular artists out there who submit more interesting things than what appears on the front page, but sadly, since their name is not "Rimfrost", or "bleed-man", nobody notices their work.
So, to sum it up, deviantart is a nice place. I just wish that others' original artwork would get noticed as well. I go there too, and submit drawings of my own characters, but the only ones who see it are my friends. It would be good if all art was appreciated, and I'm not simply talking about the original art of ONLY the popular artists, but EVERYONE's art.

An original drawing on deviantart:
"........... yea."
A Fanart drawing on deviantart:
"LIEK OMG I LUVVV IT!! ITS THE BEST THING I EVR SAW!! OMG I <3 INUYASHA ^_^_^_^" (repeat this x100 and you have a popular artist's drawing)
"........... yea."

Get the deviantartmug. If you were to ask an average teenage girl who listens to pop punk WHY she likes certain pop punk bands, the answer you'll most likely get is that she thinks the guys in the band are "hot."
Seriously. When was the last time you heard a girl say she liked Fall Out Boy without also saying that "Pete Wentz is liek omfg SOO HAWT!!1!"? It's the same with bands like Green Day, My Chemical Romance, or any others that are popular right now.
If the bands' fans would learn to appreciate them for their musical talent rather than their members' looks, then maybe there wouldn't be so many idiots making the band look like a bunch of terrible no-talent sellouts (or, in fact, actually MAKING them terrible no-talent sellouts).

Get the pop punkmug. When you can no longer play guitar slowly because you're so used to playing fast (I.E. shredding) that if you were to start playing slow, you'd automatically lose your touch
"You want me to play THAT simple piece?? Hah!"
*tries to, but finds himself going unreasonably fast*
"What the hell?? I can't!! I must have Skwisgaar Skwigelf Syndrome.."
*tries to, but finds himself going unreasonably fast*
"What the hell?? I can't!! I must have Skwisgaar Skwigelf Syndrome.."

Get the Skwisgaar Skwigelf Syndromemug. While the music itself is not too terrible, the songs are always about how much their life sucks or how much they hate themselves and wish they could die.
Quit trying to be emo and make some meaningful music for once, idiots.

Get the Simple Planmug. 1. Refers to the correct way to spell certain words.
