The word ZOOBS refers to "zebrafish boobs". It describes zebrafish laboratory fish that have been genetically manipulated or transplanted with breast epithelium xenotransplant. Scientists create ZOOBS to study the genetic pathways underlying breast cancer using zebrafish (zebrafish is a great genetic model for science, but they are not mammals and therefore, they do not have boobs).
By extension, FOOBS refers to any fish modified for the same research purposes.
The term ZOOBS was initially defined by a bunch of talented young scientists from the Rosenblatt's lab at the Huntsman Cancer Institute in Utah.

I just made a new kind of ZOOBS by introducing an Estrogen controlled transgene in a clutch of Casper zebrafish.
I wish my ZOOBS help cure cancer.

ZooB - any arrangement of anything, anything and everything. Everything is an aspect of the ZooBiverse, even in Unzoob there is ZooB. ZooB is all and all is ZooB.
ZooB serves any function of any other word e.g. Good to see you becomes Zoob to see you or ZooBy to see you, this cake is delicious becomes: this cake is ZooBlicious or
this ZooB is ZooBlicious...
this ZooB is ZooBlicious...

Any joint or blunt that has been smoked but not finished. When sparked back to life, it becomes a "Zoob." A zombie doob.
Daaaamn angel, thank you for the zoob! I got a fresh new look on life and it didn't cost me any extra! Before you had just had a whole bunch of roaches sitting around collecting dust... Now have an army of Zoobs.

The act of trying to walk by someone who is coming toward you, but failing
A typical zoobing situation works like this
-Person A is walking toward person B
-Person B is walking toward person A
-Person A moves to his right to avoid Person B
-Person B moves to his left to avoid Person A
-They switch off as many times as necessary until passing is achieved

-Dude, I just had an intense round of zoobing! I had 10 zoobs before he moved over!!
-10 zoobs!?!?! NO WAY!!
