A gamer punk is a person who generally plays video games, but has a punk attitude or clothing style. Gamer punks normally are the more popular of the gamer stereotype, not being very nerdy. You could find a group of them hanging out at an arcade or a gaming center, wearing punk clothes.
Person 1 "Hey, look at that gamer punk over there."
Person 2 "Is he playing World of Warcraft?"
Person 1 "Yeah, hey, he has a lot of piercings. He's wearing a Ramones t-shirt too."

You: Look at that guy. He can do flips.
Me: I wish i could do that. I can do many things, but not this.
I remember that we found 100 dollars one summer.
You: Next to being a Punk ass, that's the only thing I've ever done.

The fusion of the terms "hair metal" and "punk."
It is used to describe a derivative form of punk rock music which utilizes glossy guitars, pounding reverberated drums, and polished high-range vocals. People who participate in hair punk usually wear hair as follows: spikey on top near the back, straight on the sides, and long side-swiped bangs. Hair punk musicians and followers also wear abnormally tight jeans or pants, and other clothing with bright colors, attempting to hark back to the days of David Bowie and The New York Dolls, when in fact, it appears to be a glossed-up watered-down version of pop punk and emo fashions.
Hair punk is culturally accepted and there are many people, primarily teenage "scene" girls, who support them. This success and acceptance is similar to that achieved by many hair metal bands in the 80's, such as Poison, Whitesnake, and Warrant (hence the term).

Hair punk is used to describe bands such as Forever The Sickest Kids, All Time Low, Blessthefall (although more so the style rather than the music), The Maine, Plain White T's, etc.
