one trying to be what one does not know anything about. emos are commonly called posers. nobody says anything about the random dorks who buy purses from american eagle its always the kids that try to fit in with a group that is frowned down upon that get called posters. Posers try hard to be something so that they will be excepted i have a certain amount of sympathy for such people and yet they still piss me off. posers are also known as nobodys, wanna be's, never has beens, clueless, shameful, and or misserably lost
example:Jess is such a "POSER",yesterday she was wearing faded blue jeans and a babyblue t-shirt, today she is wearing tripp pants and a my chemical romance t-shirt, she has a thick layer of eye liner under her eyes, i wonder what she's trying to prove,what a "poser "

Calling someone a poser is:
1) a right of passage for all "emo" kids
2) stupid... no one truely thinks for themselves anyway, even the most "original" probably got it from someone else and/or someone else has already done it
3) equal to myspace, everyone is doing it because everyone else is doing it, and now we are stuck doing it

1) c'mon kid with your hair over one eye, you knew you were in when someone finally called you a poser...
2) "That kid is such a poser" oh wait... was I conforming to everyone else's standards by saying that?
3) no explaination needed

A deragatory term for a person who, in order to fit in, conforms to a popular trend contrary to their actual beliefs. Their overall presentation of themselves differs VERY much from who they actually are. the person most likely believes that their true interests would single them out. these people are sad things to see in society as most of them lack pure creativity and life because they have other people think for them.

Not really a word that can be defined. I mean, freaking come on, I can call anyone a poser. Emos say kids that don't 'Really have problems' aren't truly emo, when they don't have any effin problems themselves! (Honey, if you're buying all your clothes from Hot Topic, then you are well off.) The way you dress doesn't make you a person! How can you really be a poser with a bunch of made up definitions based on how people dress and what music they listen to? Seriously, grow the fuck up and leave this shit on myspace.
"lyk omg, she is such a poser!"
"No offense, I saw you wearing the same eyeliner yesterday, and you don't have anything to cry about..."

a "poser" is a person who sees a popular culture and suckles onto it like a leech, hoping to become "cool"

Someone who poses. In other words, they stand in a certain stance in preparation for a picture, etc.
Hugh Heffner just recently picked my grandmother to be a poser for the December issue of Playboy magazine.
