That's what I mean. If I was contemptuous towards such people (which I'm not)

I would call you a Weabo and know a lot of my Japanese classmates who do call such people Weabos.

While many of them are my friends.. I will admit that there is a bit of snobbery about those of us that can speak Japanese towards those of you who don't really understand much beyond a few phrases yet claim to love Japan.

LOL. I don't love Japan. But thanks for categorizing me with scary people.

If I was contemptuous towards such people (which I'm not) - I'd say people who are TRUE weaboos, are the ones taking classes to learn Japanese, because they think it'll make them look cooler, compared to people who don't speak Japanese, but who are simply enjoying the snobbery-free pleasure called music.

I mean, how hard it is it really to distinguish as sports car, or a sedan or whatever from all other cars? Or are they all just cars to you?
I can define a Sedan by it's characteristics.

You are defining Weabos via your opinion.

What is unhealthy? What is ridiculuous? What is silly-immature? What is a delusional obsession?

For cars.. Well here is the difference between a sedan, a hatchback and a station wagon for a start

Well then you've proved my point as Weabo's to you are completely different things

You can't define what a weabo is beyond your own opinion.

And you can't either. Trouble is, you're determinig yourself that everyone here falls under your opinion of something that a vast amount of them aren't and won't be. In short, you're trolling. Is life that boring for you now?

Give it a rest.

No sh*t that I can't.

If you actually read the thread you'd learn that my position is that a Weabo is just a slur and has no real definition.

And who's the troll? You came into this thread... read one post (either that or you have reading comprehension difficulties) and then tried to have a go at me.

I on the other hand went out of my way to say that I'm not really that offended by people like you or Nantena. But I know people who are... and to those people... you guys are the weabos.

*laughs*

I've read this entire thread and all I've seen of your contribution is 'LOL UR ALL WEEABOOS IMA WEEBOO TOO WEEBOOOS WHEEEE!" followed by your usual "deny all logic to the contrary while steering the conversation to topics you and only you are correct in, not anyone else" routine.

I'm greatly amused how someone asked if you feel butthurt for some reason long before I mistakenly enter this thread in an effort to stop the insanity.

I never said that ''A weaboo is''. I stated what a weaboo is IN MY OPINION. I'm not trying to define anything.. at all.

Don't put words in my mouth like that. Seems to me like you're trying to be a know-it-all here. It's rather strange..

It's his routine. Successful troll is successful and all that.
