any person that feeds off of skateboarding culture for social status or sees a relation between how cool someone looks and, how good they skate. these people mostly shop at Journey's Pacsun and Tilly's posers usually wear merchandise from Etnies, DC, Nike 6.0, Element and some vans. the typical poser, when confronted with the oppurtunity to ride a skateboard, switches out their dirtiest shoes so the others dont get dirty. If you suck at skating or havent skated in a while, your not a poser as long as you enjoy the activity and its culture unlike posers who disrespect skateboarding and see as a style and not a way of life
Skate Poser walks into a skate shop, Poser: do you guys sell DC shoes. Skater: no way we have fallens Poser: never mind those are ugly.

Get the skate poser mug.A name given to a person based on his/her fashion sense or musical tastes by people who think that:
A. Just because someone is wearing clothes from Hot Topic it means that they're trying to be goth, or
B. Just because someone listens to The Ramones it means that they're trying to be punk.
There are some more examples, but these are some of the more common ones. Most people that call others posers are saying that these people are trying to be goths or punks. These people never consider that maybe, just maybe.. these guys simply like the clothes or music!
It has nothing to do with what they want to BE, but simply what they LIKE, so they go ahead and do it. It's like assuming that just because a white guy wants to rap, that he's automatically a wigger. Rap doesn't automatically mean you're gonna speak in ebonics and rap about bitches and hoes, or how "gangsta" you are. Only when that IS the case.. you can go and call him a wigger, but otherwise, no.
It's the same with these so-called "goths" and "punks". A stud-belt from Hot Topic doesn't mean that person slits his wrists and cries all day because his life sucks, nor does liking the band Green Day mean that person wants to rebel against society, get a mohawk, and tell everyone else to fuck off.
However.. the easiest way to tell a true poser from a non-poser would be that, if a poser actually gets called a poser, he/she'd overreact quite angrily and surprised.

Get the skate poser mug.People who buy rock and "punk" t-shirts at places such as Nordstrom and Meier and Frank, for $40 dollars, then flaunt them off on their "Myspace".....and call themselves punks and/or rockers.....
*True Story* Poser in a Pink shirt.....
A girl I knew was wearing a Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon shirt. (Pink Floyd is my favorite band.) I asked her where she got it. She responded, "Nordstrom, isn't it freakin' wicked?!" (Exact Qoute, just imagine it in a ditsy voice). So I then ask her, "What's your favorite Pink Floyd song?
"Dark Side of the Moon, duh!"
"Song, not Album..."
"It is a song, it says so on the shirt!"
(For those of you who don't get it....there is no Pink Floyd song called Dark Side of the Moon, it's in the lyrics....)

Get the poser mug.there isn't really any poser bands, its just the posers that make them poser bands...if that makes any sense..
Just because those bands (ex: good charlotte, simple plan, etc.) are pop rock and all sound the same doesn't mean they are copying everyone else. They have just probably been influenced by the same music. maybe they don't want to sound like metal, they just want to play music and write meaningful lyrics (hopefully)

posers listen to bands like simple plan, good charlotte, blink 182,etc..so they make the bands look like poser bands even though those bands probably didn't mean to sound like everyone else
