That is the definition.. but it's relative. To some of my friends those that listen to Japanese music but don't understand the language are "hyper obsessed" and are Weabos. Therefore Weabo is a slur.

I'm not saying I don't believe you.. I'm just saying that it's irrelevant.

It's relative.


Well that's what you said before, so forgive me for the assumption.
I'm not quite sure what you are trying to illustrate here. All it shows is that I've been consistent throughout the whole thread.
