monkey 

A dance involving bending your knees slightly and moving your arms up and down, left-right-left-right, a la the aforementioned primate.

Popularized (sort of) by the old Cartoon Network show "Johnny Bravo" in America, and by "Overman King Gainer" in Japan.

Johnny Bravo says, "Do the Monkey with me! Come on!!"

otaku 

In Japan: an otaku is someone without a social life whatsoever and is an insult of the highest regard. There is a negative stigma associated to the phrase otherwise that involves a Japanese murderer who killed women because "they didn't have smooth faces like women in anime."
In America: a badge of honor worn by fans of anime, in lieu of simply calling themselves anime fans. Overused slang that has lost its meaning to many fanboys and fangirls.

In Japan: "With the amount of pornography that man buys, it's no wonder they consider him a disgusting otaku."
In America: "Dude, I love Sailor Moon and Utena because they have lesbians in it. I'm such an otaku! ^___^"
