Let me first start out by saying that being Indie does not fit into a particular group. Indie stands for Independant, as in on you're own, against social cliques, there for saying, "I am Indie," would defeat the purpose.
An Indie poser is indeed someone who thinks and says that they're Indie. The obviously try too hard by trying to pull of weird colorful looks that just turn out looking gross. An Indie poser probably has no idea about any local or Indie/alternative bands. And if they do, it's obvious they don't enjoy them because they can't speak deeply about the music.
Indie kids do their own thing, they are their own person. They have unique interests and are usually intelligent and pretty deep.
So the kids who are obviously shallow, try too hard, don't care for deep conversations, and hide their true interests... but dress and listen to Indie music and call themselves Indie, are indeed not Indie.

The following is an example of the daily life of a Poser Indie kid trying to fit in:
True Indie Kid: I was watching Donnie Darko last night, and I just realized how fascinating the quality of the cinematography was, and the music choice really reflected the true agony and confusion I felt Donnie was going through.
Poser Indie Kid: uhm... yeah the giant bunny is so fucking.. uhm... rad. I uhm.. really like the... quality.....??
True Indie Kid: Okay man whatever
Bottom line--- If you try to be or want to be Indie, you never will. Because you are not.
Indie Posers are whack and retarded.

slutknot, korn, limp dickshit, linkin park, and other stupid ass shit. fuckers that think theyre metal but are not even close. music that requires no real talent to make. screaming pointless meaningless lyrics, and playing shit music that is composed of all power chords.

when someone decides to label someone without context based on the music they listen to and to make themselves seem superior to the one they are speaking to, they degenerate the name poser by using it to be hurtful.

People why try to be Scene by putting on large sunglasses, taking pictures at an angle, putting on excess amounts of eye makeup, using toe rings as lip rings, and using odd props and colorful clips. also by teasing hair a bit.

A person who happens to think they're gay, while actaully being straight. This person may be so conviced that they are gay, that they will do anything gay people do, untill some time down the road they find out that being gay isnt for them and switch back, therefore they are only gay for a certain amount of time, like a bad fashion. note that being poser gay may mean a sudden change from natural gay.
person 1 : "look at that guy hanging out with the gays"
person 2 : "that guy so poser gay"
person 3: "yea, he's so gonna be straight by next week"
person 2 : "that guy so poser gay"
person 3: "yea, he's so gonna be straight by next week"

One of those kids who always wear Osiris shoes to school and claim they skate but they don't. They also think they are so awesome for wearing them even though they are big, bulky, really shiny, and annoying to look at with those huge letters and flashy colors to get your attention. It's okay if you wear Osiris shoes that are low profile and regular looking, just not the big ones with huge letters that spell "OSIRIS" on the tongue and back of the shoe.
Dude: Wow, look at Anthony and his retarded looking Osiris shoes.
Dude #2: Yeah, I heard he is full of himself for wearing them.
Dude: What an Osiris poser.
Dude #2: Yeah, I heard he is full of himself for wearing them.
