An 18-25 year old (typically male) who calls themselves a "punk" because they own 10 or 12 of the more popular punk albums on vinyl and sport a Descendents t-shirt on the days they're not putting on their Starbucks uniform to go to work.
They usually have a handful of friends who are more or less the same and sometimes they'll go to shows and stand in the back and look bored. They eschew the fashion aspect of the culture and tell people it's because punk isn't a fashion statement but it's mostly because they know they couldn't pull the look off and are too afraid to try.
They're very fond of posting photos of their Black Flag and Minor Threat albums on Reddit and waxing philosophical about "what punk means" and how much they hate nazi skins despite never encountering one in their lives. They also claim to hate the movie SLC Punk but secretly they all own a copy that they watch on a regular basis.
They are, without a doubt, the ultimate posers and deep down most of them know it which is why they call anyone with a studded jacket or a hawk a "fashion punk" in order to compensate for their own lameness. Once they reach their mid to late twenties they'll box up their vinyl, stop going to shows and basically become just like every other khakis wearing, latte sipping, middle class douchebag.

Get the College of the Atlantic mug.A magical place where it is rumored that learning takes place, although to those who enter it is often described differently afterward, as a beatiful land in which beer flows in amber currents next to a golden pasture, where virgins lie naked with gentle smiles upon their calm, inviting faces; but more precisely, a Shangri-La rite of passage into adulthood which involves rampant consumption of alcoholic beverages, flagrant and promiscuous sexual behavior, and a general and fundamental disregard for any form of responsibility by its habitants.
