Poser

a poser can be someone who tries to fit in faking an interest in something, usually a specific fandom or trend.

guy: Oh bro, totally! Did you watch Battle Tendency yet?
poser: Pfft, yeah, I watched it all last night
guy: Then let's party, dude! I brought tequila~
poser: *is confused* You know I don't drink, right-?
guy: ...You're a poser, aren't you.

Brain-poser

It combines "brain" with "poser," immediately signaling someone who's faking intelligence. it is direct and a little bit playful, highlighting the act of "posing" as intelligent.

"He spent twenty minutes using all sorts of fancy jargon, but it was clear he was just a brain-poser trying to impress the boss."

"Don't listen to her; she's a total brain-poser who just repeats things she hears online without understanding them."

Band poser

A guy posing as a piano player, guitarist,drummer, or another instrument.

The guy wished he had been naturally gifted music maker, but knew it wasn't his particular skill set. He would still claim it in public, even if it wasn't his instrument, since he was a band poser.

poser bait

Poser bait is a Groupie (usually female) that chases after Posers or Celebrities. They are usually very picky about who they go with. Some may call them Gold Diggers.

Becky is such poser bait. She can go out with Vinny, but instead she's all dressed up waiting to get backstage for Axel at the GNR Concert.

Poser

Incorrect spelling of the word "posuer", mainly used by morons and 7th graders.

Dave: "Steve is such a poser."
Mark: "You mean he poses for pictures like a model?"
Dave: "No, he tries to be something he isn't."
Mark: "You mean a poseur? You're an idiot, dude! You told me you're smart. I guess that makes you a poseur."
