Also spelled "Poseurcore", the word is a rip on all of the bands that think they kick ass, but in real life, they're fucking poseurs. Examples include: Most bands with "-core" at the end of the genre name, all Emo bands, the Warped Tour lineup, and recent Green Day.
Coined in this conversation outside a Hot Topic:

Friend: "Dude, those bands piss me off! Come on, Christcore?! Metalcore?! Give me a break."

Me: "We should just group all those bands together and call it 'Posercore'."

Friend: (Laughs)

Posercore is an aesthetic used by people who can't fully settle on one aesthetic fully. It's an aesthetic that uses multiple parts of different aesthetics to make one. For example, if someone wanted to be goth but only liked the fashion of goth, and they also liked coquette, they would be posercore. Though, posercore isn't just mixing two aesthetics, there has to be a core part of atleast one of the combined aesthetics missing to make posercore.
"Wow, she's able to pull off posercore with two opposite aesthetics, sick."

"I wanna wear a posercore outfit today!"

poserworld 

Though there are a wide variety of "posers" in poserworld, the objective is simple: a person picks a celebrity and then "poses" or pretends to be that said celebrity. Throughout their time of "posing" (on myspace with 'legit' celebrity myspaces they create), posers become friends with other posers.

Essentially, it started out with teenagers who obsessed over the Jonas brothers and other Disney related celebrities such as Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez and Miley Cyrus. They created myspaces claiming to be their celebrity of choice and there are still those who continue to "pose" today
85% of the poserworld population has admitted they were fake, come out and told their friends who they are, and still reside on myspace talking to each except they still use fake pictures (knowingly this time) and change their myspace names to their actual names.

Poserworld consists of formsprings they write in, tumblrs they create and bashing site drama from secrets and fake gossip being spilled around, creating tension and laughter from those involved and not involved.

It is an addicting place where once you come in as a young innoccent child between the age of 11-13, you still sit on the computer from age 14-18, stuck and attached to all your closest friends you meet on there.

There is poserworld dating, best friendship, and enemies.

Overall, we're all pretty much hypocrites and say we hate the place more and more everyday but still sit talking to everyone who is stuck in it too.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.
