School. A place of great pressure, where it is put on you through work, and, by the population of students.
First and foremost, I have to get this out of the way, my personal philosophy, is that at school, you should be who you are, and not change to be friends with, say, the "cool"
person (if you change who you are to become popular, then really, your not being friends with anybody, your just lying to a lot of people).
Now, consider this: Posers are people who try to act like, and dress like people of a sub-culture. Those people are often seen through, and kicked out of that sub-culture. These people are often trying to find out who they really are, and , once they discover their not, say, an emo, then they go to another culture and try to fit in.
I believe that the sub-culture that you are of is in the heart, not the clothes, or expressions you use.
For instance, a person who has philosophies that are not shared by a great number, could be considered a punk, for they believe in things that almost all others dont. The same could go for people who simply hate fashion.
So dont mentally kill posers. They are simply trying to fit into the jigsaw puzzle of life. But, for gods sake, dont give them another chance, for if once not a punk, NEVER a punk.
