Someone who dresses Goth, but doesn't pay enough attention to Goth lyrics to understand that to be Goth is to listen to the music, and also to rebel against the mainstream. If you see someone in a Bauhaus shirt, but they are talking like this: "bruh for real. Bro what. Bro says. Bro this, bro that. That's lit. That's fire ", it's a good chance they are a poser.
"Bro, broooooo bro." Bro- a term used by normal people, that is rejected by alternative subcultures. Slang denotes a poser Goth.

Somebody that says they get something they really don't so that people will pay attention to them, as seeking attention is always part of their agenda.
The poser said she got something everyone else said they got so that she wouldn't be the only one among them that didn't get it, she would be part of their group, she would see herself as being in with the group, even if not everybody did see in her what she saw in herself, as not everyone was looking through the same narcissistic lens.

* Bella was being such a poser when she said she was in AV club. She's as dumb as a rock.
* Leo is such a poser. He always acts like he can skateboard but really he can't even do a 360. Even I can do that.

An infamous hacker from the 2013 tumblr days of instagram/tumblr who nicknamed herself "the poser queen" and posted pictures of herself. Nobody really knows if the girl in those pictures were actually her or she was just catfishing someone random.
Donny: hey, you heard about the poser queen yet?
Sid: no, who’s that?
Donny: she hacked my tumblr account in 2013, man! It was crazy! I found her Kik too, bro!"
