Stevo: There were quite a few punks in the SLC back in '85, but there were equally as many posers. Posers were kids who would dress and act like punks but they did it for fashion. They were fools! They'd say shit like...

Stevo: See what I mean? Posers. ‘Anarchy in the U.K.’ What the fuck's that? It was a Sex Pistols thing. That's where they were from, they were British!

[in really bad British accent]

Stevo: ‘Did you hear the new Smiths album? It's fuckin' terriff'!’ Stupid posers walking around Utah saying ‘terriff'‘ with a stupid English twang.
