Someone who pretend to be or to know something, (especially in music or sports), just to seem cool or to feel appreciated.

Get the Posermug. A dedicated fan of Lego, retro video games, and vinyl during lockdown but has since went back to his craft beer flights, indoor axe throwing, and pickleball.
"Dakota is such a COVID poser. As soon as lockdown lifted, he went right back to being a gentrified sheep"

Get the COVID posermug. You know even if a guy in a statue of liberty outfit has a big smile on his face while he's selling insurance, he cries himself to sleep every night even though he looks like he's having a lot of fun, and he's pretending to be having fun. It would be interesting to see a guy wearing a statue of liberty suit pissed off or frowning and telling people to buy their product even though it doesn't work so he can keep his job since he's got mouths to feed and would much rather be a poet or a musician.
This guy/girl is a poser, you know that selling insurance doesn't really make him/her happy, even if he/she is good at what he/she does. The poser can keep compromising and crying himself/herself to sleep at night.

Get the Posermug. 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.

Get the Posermug. 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 Posermug. 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 Posermug. 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.
