poser

Insecure high-school kids latching onto whatever cultural or subcultural stereotype they can in order to 'fit in.' This is a manifestation on an undifferentiated ego-mass striving for conformity and order in a complex and difficult social environment, such as high-school. Most of these kids will outgrow it by their mid 20s. And, will discover that 'being themselves' is the best option of all.

Middle and upper class Black kids trying to be 'gangsta.' Middle and upper class White kids trying to be 'punk.' 'Derek is such a poser. He talks all 'street' and listens to all the latest gangsta-rap from LA. When in fact, he grew up in Georgetown and his dad is an executive at IBM.'

poser

1.Someone who tries to be popular by looking or acting like someone else. Sometimes, NOOBS are also called posers when they act like other people in the group without a hint of autheniticy. Happens in most common style groups like Goth, Punk, Wigger (Chav), and most infamously, Prep and Pop culture. 2. A character, show, or actor that doesn't have a clue of being individually styled.

Johnny is still a poser to the prep kids after he tried to wear the same brands as every one else. Hot Topic was one of the most feared poser-stores to both true Punks and Goths alike.

A poser is someone who poses for something. Trying to be something they're really not. They want to be it so bad (wannabe), but unfortunately they don't do it naturally. People can see right through posers. Usually posers are a midway of things because posers are always "half-in" than full.

The Pussycatdolls are posers. They are a group of six or seven talentless girls who can't sing or dance for their live. They wear tacky, slutty, clothing and hope that their skimpy clothes make up for their lack of talent. I still don't know if they are trying to be showgirls, prostitutes, or dirty broadway singers.
