The author was so ugly he hired me to be his ghost poser. Now I’m on the back of every copy of his book 😎

Get the ghost poser mug.Someone that claims to carry a pocket knife for protection/self defense instead of for the real reason they carry one, to look/sound/feel tough/strong/powerful.
The dorky poser with the glasses stabbed her boyfriend 16 times to have something to show for her not being the same chicken shit people knew her as when she was a kid, and thought that the jury wouldn't see right through her, and support her self-defense testimony. They knew she wasn't really the hardass she was portraying herself as, though she was a bully like any other.

Get the Poser mug.If a guy has convinced people he's Italian (such as an actor in a movie), but he's not really Italian, no matter how believable the guy is, he's not authentic, so he's a poser.
The poser had convinced people that he/she was from hell and that he/she was hell, but since there was no hell, he/she was just another otherwise obscure poser.

Get the Poser mug.Someone who wears a hair metal band shirt to a thrash show and tries to fit in and get away with it.
Thrasher 1- “Hey look at that poser over there wearing a Motley Cruë shirt!”
Thrasher 2- “Let’s beat him up!”
Thrasher 3- “MAKE HIM HURT!”

Get the Poser mug.The girl wanted to look like a boy, as long as the boy was an athlete or an astronaut and not a loser. If the boy she was trying to look like was a loser, she would turn into a coward and let a male look like the loser. All of that could be avoided by being yourself, instead of living your life as a poser.

Get the Poser mug.Someone who acts like someone they're not, but they don't realize that there being fake, basically a loser trying to fit in. They usually buy ‘trendy’, fake- fancy stuff to look better for people and acts like the majority.

Get the Poser mug.Someone who thinks they've worked harder at everything than everyone else throughout their lives. Someone who thinks everyone else was just joking around or playing games while they were more committed than everyone else, outdoing them at everything.
He/she was the worst kind of poser, the kind that wanted/expected to be taken seriously at least some of the time (when he/she wanted to, or at oppurtune times). He/she had a high opinion of himself/herself.
