emo poser

A person who tries to fit in with the emo label just for attention or popularity (which doesn't make sense because emo people aren't supposed to be popular)

Anyway, here are some ways to spot an emo poser:

1. Act depressed 24/7, even when nothing is wrong in their lives
2. Cut themselves purposefully... and then show it to everyone
3. Must always adopt the complete emo look: dark dyed hair with sidebangs, very tight pants, an emo band t-shirt (like Hawthorne Heights) at least 3 items from Hot Topic, and of course, eyeliner
4. Has a rich family
5. Music lists ALWAYS include the following bands: My Chemical Romance, Hawthorne Heights, The Used, Simple Plan, Fall Out Boy, AFI, and more
6. Throws emo song lyrics around on their myspace/xanga/livejournal/etc., usually as their display name
7. On the above-mentioned sites, include pictures of themselves with the typical myspace angle (weird camera aim which barely allows for the viewer to see the person except for their hair, or at least one of their eyes)
8. Only talk to people who look just like themselves (and may get rejected if they see how much of a poser he/she is)
9. Are anorexic or have some other mental disorder, usually involving their self-image (because all emo posers think they're ugly)
10. Complain about their "hard lives" all the time

In short, emo posers are the reason that everyone hates emos. They're the ones who act like this, so people think that all emos do it too. In reality, true emo people act like themselves, and the only way that they are all alike is that they tend to have a primarily emotional personality. That's it. It has nothing to do with being depressed or mental disorders, or listening to all the same bands, unless you have a good reason for being depressed, did not force the mental disorder on yourself, or listen to the bands because you actually like them.

Though, in reality, I personally do not like most of the bands. They're not in my taste. I'm not gonna insult them though. Only the people who listen to them just because everyone else does, AKA the posers.

Emo poser: omg I'm SOOO depressed, becuz liek look at my ristz their soo bloody huh?!1

Emo: What the hell? You obviously did that on purpose.

Emo poser: Nono no wai I did not! I liek totally got sad and My Cemikul Romanze is mah fave band EVUR!! All mah otha frendz lizzen to them!

Emo: ... Ok, you know what? How about you just keep cutting? It'll be the solution to not only your problem but to ours too. Our reputation will finally be saved!

Emo poser: Oo yea! Good idea! Now Im gunna go take my super-expensiv nife and cut mah ristz while lizzenin to Hawforn Haytz!

Emo: Yea. Hurry up. You need to bleed more. Or, how about you let ME do it for you?

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

rap poser

A person who doesn't even like rap and listens to the pop rap because they think that they look cool. Rap posers don't even look into rap to know that there was old school. Usually they buy the album of the newest one hit wonder and put it in their cd player and don't even listen to it. Rap posers say rock and every other genre sucks without even listening to it because they think that makes them look cool. Real rap fans don't just listen to the pop rap, they usually listen to tupac and notorious B.I.G. and the rappers before them because they know that those were the people who had the best flow, and also real rap fans don't go around saying that rock sucks.

I used to be a rap poser until I listened to Jimi Hendrix and other classic rock and then I started getting into rock and metal because I actually like it and don't pretend to. Now I express my true thoughts on modern rap and the only rap I listen to is old school cause modern is shit.

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?

Their gamertags are so retarted and Use UppEr CaSe and LoWer CaSe like ThiS, Use of more leterssss, two ii's, z's, x's, o's, v's etc. They also have a bio that consists of foreign characters that you have to squint your eyes to read that shit. They talk alot of smack and usually mod. Most of them aren't even that good. They promote how "GB" they are and promote their lame youtube channel. They buy Gamerpics such as, Konsole Kings, and MLG Picture Packs. They use vocabulary such as "BK Randy, Scrub, Get Slapped, Get Smacked, etc." They are very easy to find in call of duty game modes such as "Search and Destroy, Demolition, Ground War, and Domination." Their Gamertags would look like: iToo SiiCK, iiTz DropShoTzz, o Examplezz o, Communticationzzz, GeT o SLaPPeD, etc. They range from 13 year olds to 30+ who need to get a job.

Dude, those guys "Communicatez" and "LeGiiT ShOtZ" are such MLG Poser Wannabes, just look at their motto and bio, and they are like 13 years old.
