* Bella was being such a poser when she said she was in AV club. She's as dumb as a rock.

* Leo is such a poser. He always acts like he can skateboard but really he can't even do a 360. Even I can do that.

Poser

Someone who's got a big mouth and thinks it makes them a wolf (or fox), since wolves do really have big mouths.
The poser had a mouth big enough that you'd think he/she was preying on a few people.

"Dakota is such a COVID poser. As soon as lockdown lifted, he went right back to being a gentrified sheep"

Poser

Someone that thinks they are a lot spookier/scarier than they actually are.
The narcissistic girl saw a badass shark when she looked in the mirror, and thought that everyone else could see in her what she saw in herself when they looked at her, but they weren't looking at her appearance, they were looking at her spirit, and all they saw was a plain poser that everyone had always been trying to keep from drowning.

Poser

Someone that is not who they say they are. Someone that tries to discredit a company (UPS, a retailer for examle) because they didn't get as much money as they wanted for something.
The girl was trying to discredit the company to defend her feisty (and false) image. Someone that really is feisty doesn't have to tell people around them often about how feisty they are to get attention or attempt to scare the shit out of people, and anybody that does that, big or small, is a poser.

" Omg, you know Maya?"

"Omg yeah, she pretends to like Panic! At the disco to impress Mike. She only knows like one song"
"She's such a poser"

pince-nez president poser

Refers to an assistance-related question --- either a request for a favor or an offer to provide help yourself --- regarding a slightly "cranky" subject dat da person whom you're approaching might otherwise feel annoyed/embarrassed to be queried about; you therefore "soften the blow" by humorously "packaging" your question as a knock-knock joke, and using da first name of dat geeky-lookin' Prez wif da round-rimmed spectacles as da name of da "visitor" in da joke.
Here are da two “classic” ways dat ya would smilingly employ da “pince-nez president poser” to hopefully lessen da distress dat your listener would likely feel to be asked said question:
To ask da person for his assistance:
“Knock, knock…”
”Who’s there?”
“Woodrow!!!”
”Woodrow, who?”
“Woodrow be reasonably able to ___ for me sometime in da next few days?”
Or to offer da person your own assistance:
“Knock, knock…”
”Who’s there?”
“Woodrow!!!”
”Woodrow, who?”
“Woodrow like me to ___ for you occasionally, if it’s reasonably convenient for both of us?”
