posers

Someone who says they really like something when either
1: The barely know anything about it
2: They're only saying that to fit in

Posers usually all dress the same and think they're totally hardcore when really, they suck. Poser is becoming the new term for conformist, because most posers are only doing the annoying things they do to fit in.
EXAMPLE 1:
Poser: OMG I love Green Day!
Punk: What's your favorite album?
Poser: American Idiot.
Punk: Ha! Typical poser. I like Insomniac.
Poser: Wha? Is that a second name for one of their songs?
Punk: No, it's an album!
Poser: They have more albums???

EXAMPLE 2:
Poser: I have a girlfriend. *note: poser is a girl*
Non-Poser: So you're lez or bi or something?
Poser: No, I'm just expreimenting. That's okay in highschool.
Non-Poser: So you aren't attracted to girls but you're dating one?
Poser: Yeah, I love her. She's HOTT.
Non-Poser: You can't say that if you're not attracted to girls. It's faking it. You're a stupid poser. That's sick, it's not just a brand of clothes or something, you're probably breaking your "girlfriend's" heart, because you aren't really attracted to her. Get a boyfriend instead, or be single you fuckhead!
*note: I actually had that conversation with a stupid poser. Most of the posers I know pretend to be bi, and then they use the word "gay" as an antagonistic phrase.*

EXAMPLE 3:
Poser: I love My Chemical Romance!
Non-Poser: What's your favorite song?
Poser: Welcome to the Black Parade!
Non-Poser: Do you own any of the albums?
Poser: No, I just saw the video on TV! It was so cool... I love MCR <3333
Non-Poser: Have you ever heard "Cemetery Drive"?
Poser: No, I just heard them for the first time! My mom just bought me a MCR shirt!

How Can You Tell Who's a Poser?

Posers usually attempt to listen to whatever-subculture-they-try-to-be's type of music. But usually end up listening to sell outs or poser BANDS. They also buy things people will think are {LABEL}, so people will say, "OMG UR SO {LABEL}!" to them, mainly for attention. They also try to do EVERY EXACT THING one specific label does. ex. Emo - Cut/ Prep - Wear a lot of pink, hate other cliques
--
These people will also SAY they do these things for... ATTENTION. Most often dress for attention as well.

A very popular label that has many types of posers, is emo. Mainly because of the whole Black Parade Scene. {Dont get me wrong, I love My Chemical Romance} And many think it shows they're cool, or want to look like a "non-conformist". Many can be found on {VampireFreaks.com

Long story short is that posers are sorry excuses for everything. And many just want to look different. Labels are gay things that take people's originality away. There's no use for them, AND PEOPLE HAVE TO LEARN TO BE THEMSELVES.

poseur

1. A Conformist: someone who does what everyone else is doing b/c its "in", "trendy", or "cool" to do at the time.
2. Someone who puts themself under a certain label in order to be accepted by others who have conformed to that same label.

-It really doesn't matter what you wear or what you listen to in terms of music, as long as YOU YOURSELF truly like the music and the way you look.
-You won't be a poseur so long as you do what you like for YOURSELF, instead of doing things to be accepted by people who will find VERY little meaning in what individuality really means.
People who CALL THEMSELVES:
Punk, Goth, Emo, Hardcore, Gangster, Ghetto, Indie, MetalHead, etc.

Many (NOT all) white teens listen to rap music, not b/c they actually like it, but b/c its the "cool" thing to listen to, and if you listen to any genre of "Rock" music, you are looked down upon as an outcast and an "unnatural freak". But this ok, so long as you are true to yourself.
