Christ people, if you like any of these things that doesn't automatically make you a weeaboo.

Weeaboo = wapanese = wannabe Japanese

If you adore JAPAN so much you wish you were one of them, THAT's when you're weeaboo. Signs include thinking anything from Japan is great, seeing no flaws in anything Japanese and wetting your pants when you spot a Japanese person posting on an English message board.

That's what a "wapanese" is.

A weeaboo is someone who only likes 2D stuff.

And don't forget randomly using japanese all the time.

>> No.4097208

>>4097181
Also: using Japanese words in English speech, studying Japanese language, wanting to visit/having visited Japan, wanting a Japanese girlfriend (pathetic!), doing Japanese things at home (eating ramen, making riceballs, etc.)

These make you weeaboo if you obsess over them. Someone who studies Japanese for business reasons is no weeaboo.

I wouldn't say it's that weeaboo. VN translations are pretty limited, and if this happens to be your hobby, you might as well study Japanese. As long as you don't use it all the time and think that this is a best and most beautiful language ever.

Yes, I remember that wordfilter, but terms change with time and these two words don't mean the same thing anymore.

>>4097227
Yeah, you're right, what matters is the intention. If the intention is to learn Japanese simply because the person adores Japan, that's being weeaboo. If it is to understand entertainment you like, which happens to come from Japan, it isn't.

Some on here are full-blown waps, while others just wotakus. Well, most waps are on /cgl/ and /a/.
Yes, there are nice things coming from Japan, like technology and media, and their culture and history is nice too, but you've got to resist becoming a wap. I was a bit of a borderline wap when I was younger, but now I let the sage speak for me.

>> No.4097325

Hmm, okay. The best I could figure was that they had some word you couldn't "say" at work (like, I think, some offices have a game that the first person to use the word "coffee" has to get everyone coffee or something?) and the "joke" was that the word was something ridiculous which would never be used in normal speech.

Still doesn't explain the paddling of course.

There really isn't any real reason why /jp/ dislikes certain things. It doesn't have anything to do with the things themselves... /jp/ dislikes certain things based on the other people who like them. The actual thing itself is largely irrelevant.

If no one liked Halo and it was an obscure game, /jp/ would love it. In fact, they only gravitate towards Japanese-oriented stuff because they feel their own culture rejects them.

Before I return to /r9k/ from whence I came, there is one word that explains /jp/ in a nutshell: Ressentiment.

I honestly don't think there's anything wrong with learning Japanese. But most of you faggots (OP and his ilk) can't speak a word of Japanese, and that combined with your interests makes you pathetic weeaboos.
