Pelagic Poser

A dude decked out in top-tier offshore fishing gear - fishing shirt, expensive polarized shades, Olukai flip flops and buff around the neck - but hasn’t touched a rod since that one party boat trip in 2016. Usually found far from any actual water, often at brunch, Publix, or flexing on Instagram with a caption like “Salt Life" next to a retention pond.

Common Traits:

- SPF 50 hoodie with no tan line
- Talks tides, can’t tie a clinch knot
- Sandbar MVP, casting optional
- Uses ‘tight lines’ as a sign-off, unironically
Bro, that guy just pulled up in a lifted Tacoma wearing $500 in fishing gear to buy a sub. Total Pelagic Poser.

If your fish finder is your TikTok feed… you might be a Pelagic Poser.

Cinderella poser

Someone that never really had to fight/work too hard for anything in life, but still wants the image of somebody that really did those things for show to the world.
The Cinderella poser always had someone else come help/save her if the going started to get tough, or if she started to get beat. She doesn't really know anything about loss, which is why she was never a true Cinderella in the first place.

Poser

The incorrect spelling for the word "Poseur". But if you must know, a poser is

pos·er pṓzər
(plural pos·ers)
(n) Someone who poses for a photograph or a work of art.

Look it up.

Although, a 'poseur', if that is what you meant, is

po·seur pō zúr
(plural po·seurs)

(n) A Pretentious Person: somebody who tries to impress others by behaving in an affected way

I'm unsure why people changed the spelling of it, but it is frowned apon. You have just made an ass out of you and me.
1) someone who poses (aka poser)

2) same as poseur (informal)
