Poser

A coworker or boss who chooses sides on any given issue based solely their desire to fit in.
Sanchez totally sided with the staff accountants in that meeting so they would give her a "you go girl!" in the company cafeteria. Last week she chose to hang with Legal so she could be invited to their Happy Hour. She's a total poser!

Poser

Someone who is not who they say they are.
The girl with the can of spinach tattooed on her arm would act like she was from the South Side of Chicago even though she wasn't even from Illinois and didn't live a day on Central time as a kid. She wanted to show people how much tougher she was than them, that was why she did all this poser stuff.

Person 2: -went to Ozzfest, I know. You know, I know, and everyone at school probably knows. I think he Tweeted it while he was still there.

Person 1: *rolls eyes* Jeez, he's such a lollapa-poser. He's not even that big into music.

Poser

A person either boy or girl who changes they're looks and personality to fit in with another social clique. Like around one bunch of friends they will act emo and listen to depressing music and talk about how much their lives suck, but when they're around another bunch of friends they will act like a ganster listening to rap and wearing baggy pants and bling. Most 'posers' do not actually like the things they have to do to fit in, but they're are so set on being accepted they will do the things they are totally against. They also tend to copy other peoples styles then tell the person they copied it from that 'they made the style up'. Most people are posers because it's so damn hard to be an individual now-a-days (!). Oh and they also tend to label themselves a lot.

poser

someone so needy for attention they act like a fag to get it.
People who think that going to Hot Topic and dying their hair black and listening to Linkin Park makes them cool. They deny the whole indie/goth culture by a)supporting Hot Topic, a multimillion dollar corporation that only wants MONEH! b) doing what EVERYONE with more than a thousand friends on MySpace has done. c) supporting Linkin Park who have a contract with a huge record label that doesn't care about music, just money.
What a fuckin' poser! He bought that Good Charlotte shirt at Hot Topic.

People who will deny themselves and take personalities that are mass-produced by corporate America.

People who like the Ramones more than X or Minutemen because they had more chart success.
