A "weemo" is when someone approaches the victim from behind and jams their fingers into the sides of the victim's ribcage resulting in a spasm-like reaction, often accompanied by a little yelp. A weemo can occur anytime, anywhere - this is part of the reason why they are so destructive.

Weeabo

Similar to the term ‘koreaboo’, a weeabo is someone of non-Japanese heritage who disowns their own heritage and culture and sees themselves as Japanese born.

Appreciating the culture and learning or experiencing more about Japanese fashion, entertainment, language, religion, etc. to broaden your own knowledge does not make you a weeabo.

Person 2: No I have to finish watching this new anime that I started.
Person 1: Wow are you really a weeabo?
Person 2: No I just like anime, it’s not like I want to be Japanese.

Weeaboo

A weeaboo is a non-Japanese person who is obsessed with Japanese culture. They frequently denounce their own culture, and speak frequently about Japanese culture being superior to others in various ways. Although a weeaboo does not HAVE to be an anime fan, they almost always are. Keep in mind that one can watch anime, and really enjoy it, speak Japanese, and like Japanese culture WITHOUT being a weeaboo, as long as they do not WORSHIP Japanese culture, and abandon or denounce their own.

Weeaboo symptoms include: Having a katana collection, owning an anime body pillow/waifu, denouncing your own culture, and wearing traditional Japanese clothing.
"Holy shit! Did you see the new episode of Naruto yesterday? It's becoming so Americanized now, and all the casuals are watching it!"
