Get the Fobbingmug. FOB stands for fresh off the boat. Its used as a noun - "so and so is a FOB". A FOB is basically any immigrant. Most definitions here refer it to east asians but its not limited to them.
Most contexts seem to use it with negative connotation - that the person has not adjusted to western culture and that they should be ashamed of their customs.
Sometimes, more trivially, it's used in the following context: when you think you're doing something 'cool' (by the standards of your people), but youre not (by the standards of white people), you're being a fob.
It could also be used as an adjective: fobby.

Get the Fobsmug. Full Of Bullshit.
People who frequently prefer using white lies when arguing with you to convince themselves they are right. Those people also give you random and misplaced excuses on different topics to avoid facing their problems. Problem is, you know they are lying to protect themselves or trying to manipulate you.

- It's the 3rd time Tim gives up his graduate studies. Last year he gave up his first year of law school because "he couldn't stand one of his teachers". Now he just gave up osteopathy because "his ex follows the same course". He's FOB, his parents keep giving him money for that. Can't he find a job instead?
- Lea is so FOB. She said she couldn't come home because she was sick but she kept publishing party pics on her facebook.
- Some beeping noise in the kitchen woke me up at 3am and I surprised my stepdad . He said he heard someone outside, but I know he's FOB because the range hood was on. He doesn't know how to turn on the light on it and just wanted to sneak in the fridge for some secret night snack...
