the dumbest fucking word ever created. often used to segregate kids who dont fit in according to their opinion. used by people who consider themselves "scene", "emo", "goth", "indie", "hipster", "skater", etc. all who use this seemingly harmless word are doomed to burn eternally in a firey inferno and/or a boiling vast of piss.
Hey look at that poser over there with the skateboard. I bet he doesn't even know how to skate." "i wasnt talking to you, i dont understand what makes him a poser, and in fact i have no idea who the hell you are... please go die.

Someone who displays an obsession with certain bands, stores, or anything hardcore when in truth they don't like hard rock, don't really shop at hot topic and got their only pair of black skinny jeans at hollister. Someone insecure enough to fake being badass or and does things like sayig they "snuck out" with a hot guy but really they just went to the end of their driveway at like 10pm.
woahh brittany and amanda are such pathetic POSERS, amanda pretends to be anorexic and birttnay doesnt shut up about how hot her ass is and how much of a rebel she is. sad.

An insecure child who tries very hard to be something besides being themselves.
Nowadays, most kids are posing as punks/goths/emos/skaters by dressing like them, acting like them, and sharing the same interests as them. Since so many kids are doing this, its very difficult to tell the difference between a real goth and a poser goth.
Here's a more specific definition:
Posers can be quite vicious. They pick on many people, most of who haven't done anything to them.
VICTIM #1: Real punks/goths/emos/skaters. Posers usually call them posers because they want a self-esteem boost. They want to be more goth than the goths, or more punk than the punks are. But lemme tell you posers out there, if you posing as a punk( Im going to use punk as an example because there are more punk posers than other posers) and the only reason you think you are is because you buy all of your apparel at Hot Topic and think Good Charlotte is cool only because you think Benji Madden looks hot in liberty spikes, you have no right to call someone who is a real punk, someone who is really anti-establishment and is all about the music, a poser.
VICTIM #2: Anyone else who is not trying to be punk/goth/emo/skater and is interested in the same things as they are. For example, if a poser who thinks he/she is a goth because they wear no other color but black sees someone wearing black capris, they call them a poser because apparently to them, goths are the only people that are ever allowed to wear black. So what if they like black too! Goths aren't the only ones who are allowed to wear black.
So basically, a poser is someone who claims they are punk/emo/goth/skater and go around calling other people with the same interests as them posers because they claim they're "stealing their interests" and also to make themselves seem more punk/emo/goth/skater.
I hope my furious rant plainly explained to you what a true poser is.

One poser called me a poser just because I like checkers and the color red. That is a load of bullshit.

I have a good definiton for poser. My cousin. She is very cool, but is a pretty big poser. SHe recently started liking rock. Her favorite bands are Green Day, Panic! at the Disco, AFI, Simple Plan, My Chemical Romance...and thats pretty much it. I asked her if she knew "Death Cab for Cutie" "Blink 182" and even the old songs of Green Day...and she had NO IDEA. SHe painted her nails black, borrows her sisters black shirts(which says 'baby phat' on them, but as long as they are black, she doesnt care), and started to hate pink. Well, I like rock and metal, but I dont dress all in black. Her myspace is sooo emo and she tries to hit on emo kids. Her sisters call her goth, but she denies it. WHAT GIVES?! I mean, she doesnt even know what Oldies are!!!! She has no idea who Korn or Slipknot is. She shoudl just give up.
Angela*: omg rock is the best!
me: have you heard "all the small things."? its REALLY CATCHY!
Angela*: what is that? a new radio station.
i cannot explain more. she is just a big poser. period.
*names have been changed, so i replaced her name with this girl i hate
