The Urban Dictionary defines poser as:
- one who pretends to be someone;
- who tries to fit in but with exaggeration.
Ultimately a poser is one who must pretend to be something they are not. I’d not heard the term until my son poked a little fun at his girl friend’s father, calling him a poser for his sweet ride—a shiny black Jeep, which contrasted his own black Jeep (photo above).
