No offense man, but it sounds like your friend needs some counseling.
In fact, it's the over-obsession with Asian culture that really turns me off with non-Asian girls (me being Asian myself of course).
Another thing that annoys me is Internet-fu fanboys. It helps if you actually practice martial arts, not finger-fu with the keyboard, where Wikipedia is your source of knowledge for martial arts.
People in chat call me a weaboo because I listen to Vocaloid... I definitely do not consider myself a weaboo because I don't overreact to anime or use words like "kawaii" or however you spell it. e_e;
That description sounds like the girl i had a crush on in high school, except she turned out to be crazy and had a pill addiction. Something was terribly wrong with her, but i eventually said to myself "I'd rather not even bother trying to ask her out." when i found out how messed up she was. I hope she really gets some help.
Well anyways i've dealt with some wee-uhh-boobs when i tried to join the anime club at my college, and they get on my nerves. They're the main reason why i don't even go to that club anymore since they make up 98% of the club. I think it's really sad, but I never been called one though. These people who fit the description of a wee-uhh-boobs need some other hobbies or something.
This is the first time I heard of the word weeaboo. The only weeaboo-ish thing that me and my brother have done is how he sometimes calls me onii-sama due to an inside joke.
I have no problem with its usage. I see two ways to use it:
1) A general term for someone who pretends to be Japanese or idolizes Japan and the Japanese based on a view of the country, people, culture learned completely through anime or manga.
2) As "otaku" has become a term of pride amongst non-Japanese anime fans instead of a derogatory term for...well...otaku, "weeaboo" acts as a good replacement.
@Hideki Motosuwa. None taken.
@Shingo XXII I used to be VP of my college's anime club. Once night we got a pretty good turn-out, the majority of them being wee-aboos. They were loud, obnoxious, and also smelled bad. We told them if they couldn't respect the other people trying to watch the anime, the door was behind them.
Only had 5 members the next time we met, couldn't have been happier.
Lol the weeaboos back in High School, those were the days.
I saw this dude wearing a Naruto headband - I didn't know either to laugh at his face or punch him. Lol
Anime sucks anyway. the Amazing World of Gumball is so much better than Bleach.
I keep my anime hobby to myself and most people don't ask me what my hobbies are most of the time.
Ah, good ol' Weeb Stories. It's very hilarious, IMHO. Don't take the tumblr personally. c: But yeah no, weebs are the reason I'm not that "flamboyant" as an anime fan. Not like I feel the need to be.
This made me chuckle somewhat.Quote:

I can tolerate ignorant people. Those who I've encountered, I can tell them almost anything and they'd believe it.
Weeaboos are one of the individuals in the social food chain that I can't stand at all. They know only one Asian country: Japan. Watch animu like 25/8, and nothing more. Devote their life to Japanese culture--
Oh btw:
Reality sucks.
One of my friends was like "You can tell the difference between Chinese and Japanese people!??!!?! They all look the same to me deshu~ But Japanese people are WAAAAAY hotter" "ummm ok? You go think that.. in a corner.."
And so then my Asian friend was amused by the fact that I could. I mean it's not hard to be able to tell the difference between characteristics of people from different cultures. I'm not all Asian obsessed I admire their culture and all but I don't strive to unreasonably engulf myself in it.
For guys, if they insist on being Asian, wouldn't that insult their penis size?
