poser punk 

People who think that they are punks but are really just trying to be. The mistake they make is to try to become a punk. Punks are all about not trying to be anything and following your own rules. there is no fashion code to being a punk. there are no rules as to what bands you have to listen to. GC and Simple Plan are ruining Punk because they are posers. One popular band comes out that wears black trenchcoats and spiky hair and nail polish and tatoos come out, and people assume they are punks. these bands are mis-representing themselves and the punk community. people are getting the wrong idea of what punk is.
poser punk: shops at hot topic, wears label shirts;vans, ae,etc. follows any hint of a fashion trend, wears a shirt that says punk on it, thinks all punk is about is breaking rules and acting badass.
real punk: someone true to who they are, who doesn't take any crap from anyone, who recognizes the flaws of society, who isn't afraid to be unique and wouldn't be caught dead being called a label.

poser goth/punk

Someone who labels themselves goth and or punk; yet doesn't know the true meaning of goth/punk. They usually just label themselves that because they think it makes them "cool".
poser goth/punk:"I'm goth. I listen to my chemical romance. I hate my life. And I wear black clothes cause it makes me look goth."

Or

poser goth/punk:"I'm punk. I listen to green day. I wear eyeliner like billie joe cause it makes me look punk."

Poser Wall 

The Wall in Stores like Hot Topic that displays band T-Shirts, where posers will stare , reading random band names outloud in a poor attempt to seem Music Savvy.
Poser: "hmm They have The Misfits cool!! ohh i really like....*squints* Joy Division? *looks around store nodding head* (Quietly searches for a safe Fall Out Boy T-Shirt on the Poser Wall)"

poser skater 

a poser skater is someone who pretands to be a skater. they are usually people that go to skateparks all the time but just sit on the benches with their board trying to look cool. they usually dress and act like the stereotype but when it comes to actually getting on the board they have no clue what they are doing. you can usually tell if someones a poser skater if they say they can do a boardslide and they bottom of their deck isnt even scratched. it actually doesnt matter if you suck or if you just started but when you say you can do things that you have never tried before because they look "easy" then your a poser. it also doesnt really matter if you wear skate brand tees if you actually like the style just dont wear them if you think it makes you look cool.
skater: dude, you are such a f*cken poser skater
poser: omg no im not!!!!!111 ive lyk sk8ed lyk all my life, i kno lyk all the kewl tricks and stuff dude!!!11
skater: oh yeah do you know the difference between a frontside 50-50 and a backside 50-50?
poser: pssh lyk totally
skater: then do a frontside 50-50
poser: lyk okaaay!!!11

(poser goes over to a legde, but since they dont know how to even do an ollie, they jump of the board onto the legde and since they are too "Kewl" to use a helmet, they bash their head into the cement and get knocked unconcious)

skater: thats what you get you f*ucken poser

Poser school 

School where all the kids are separated. The social groups are all distinctly separated. The different groups often never interact with each other ever. Oftentimes, this leads to a socially fucked atmosphere at school. There are also many 'fake' kids in these poser schools. They will claim to be someone's friend and then talk shit about them without them knowing. It escalates to a point where most people at the school talk shit behind other people's backs.
Stephanie: Hey mark, good to see you
Mark: (walking by) Hey good to see you two
(Mark walks away)
Stephanie: I hate mark, he's such a faggot
Julie: Yeah but y don't u just tell him instead of pretending like ur cool w/ him?
Stephanie: Y would I do that? We're in a poser school remember?

poser account

An account on Facebook, YouTube, or another popular site in which someone impersonates someone else. It may or may not be done for poser reasons, and when the attempt fails, all hell breaks loose.
Obama's secret prostitute on YouTube? No Way! That chick is ugly and the videos suck ass. It's gotta be a poser account.

Poser-Basher 

A poser basher is someone so absorbed with there own image of cool, that they believe anyone who attempts to try the activity the poser basher is good at, must either be hardcore about it 110% or is a poser, and should therefore be ridiculed. Yes there are posers out there, but not everyone that say, "goes surfing once a year" or "wears a certain type of clothing is a poser, and if they are, who cares, only the poser basher. (perhaps the poser basher is really inside the poser him-(or her)self.) If you love something why not be happy for someone who tries that very thing, even if only so they can feel a small part of what you feel enjoying that activity. the majority of the people that say surf, or rock climb, or skateboard, or snowboard, ski, or whatever activity could care less whether your a poser or not, there out there doing there own thing.
Im sure you come across poser-bashers everyday. im not pointing fingers or anything, just saying my piece. But seriously everyone, give the new kids a chance, if someone's having a hard time on a tough problem, or just can't send a wall, or cant paddle out through the surf, or even if they just have the tools, but just dont know what to do with them, go help them out, dont just sit back labeling them, that type of behavior does'nt help anyone out, if you love a sport or activity, introduce others to it, share the love.
but hey thats just my piece.
a. The poser-basher ridiculed anyone who had a hard time surfing, or even just couldnt paddle out through the surf, labeling them a poser.
b. "Look at that kid trying to campus that 5.10 wall, what a poser." (Speaker = poser-basher)
c. SITUATION
kid- "I love surfing clothing, but i don't surf.
poser-basher- "Your such a poser"
kid- "I would start though"
poser-basher- "shut up poser"
WHAT works better
kid- "I love surfing clothing, but i don't surf.
other-"you should try it sometime"
kid-"I want to but its hard starting"
other- "Everythings hard to start, man next time your at a good beach with waves, go down to the surf shop, rent a board, get out there, just paddle out behind and out of the way of a lineup, be respectful, watch the guys there, watch what they do, maybe even ask for pointers, but don't expect them to babysit you, after you have a good idea about it try on a few small waves. You'll either love it, or you won't. but get out there and try"
