Flake 

An self-consciously pretentious, "arty", often new-agey, socially akward type; commonly said with "Arts" (an arts-flake)

Beetljuice: "Delia, you are a flake, you have always been a flake. If you insist on frightening people, do it with your sculpture."

Heathers: (Veronica's Dad, pointing at the TV): "Hey, isn't she that flake we met at the school fair or something?" (talking about the new-agey, overly dramatic English teacher/morale builder)
