And now its the other way round and now its the weebs that are the ones that have to tell others (tourists) that anime girls aren't real? im so sick of people treating fictional characters like they are real and real people like they are fiction.
At one time, I would’ve taken their opinions seriously, now I assume they are barely better than animals in terms of intelligence
It's like celebrity worship on an even cringier level. I don't know why enjoyment leads to obsession, but it does I guess. Also can someone explain this weeb term? I don't like it, sounds like dweeb which is dorky.
weeb just basically means "anime/manga fan" or it can also just mean "Japan fan"
So it's not insulting? I instinctually felt insulted when someone called me this, once.
It's meant to be insulting, but we're taking it back.
It used to be insulting and it referred to very specific kind of people who used their obsession with Japan as a substitute for personality.
Understandable as it's a D away from being a proper insult
It is an insult, weebs are essentially race and culture trannies. It's not to be conflated with dweeb. It means weeaboo.
That's what I'm learning, interest doesnt have to be ownersnip but there's so many crazies!
