Otaco
A person who is obsessed with Central and South American culture, although they themselves have little to no "natural" connection to that culture.
Persons with this trait will show a strong tendency to dine at Latin American restaurants, date Latin American men/women, and discuss global human rights struggles solely in terms of the citizens of Latin American countries. May attempt to co-opt Latin American culture as their own, or simply profess a strong communion with that culture.
It is important to note the distinction between persons who are simply sexually attracted to Latinos because of common facial features/skin tone, vs. true otacos, whose singular focus on all things Hispanic will also affect/impair other day-to-day judgments--for instance choosing to purchase a cheap gutrot mezcal if it is the most "authentic" option in an otherwise well-stocked liquor store.
Commonly occurs in people who grew up in Caucasian upper middle-class suburbs, in which a Hispanic working class was the second-largest demographic.
Apparently derived from the western use of the term otaku and the Mexican food item taco.

1. "Did you see that La Raza bumper sticker Tim Philips-Whitehead put on his car? That dude is such an otaco."
2. "That torta truck is so bad they had to move it to the University district... only the otacos are dumb enough to eat there."

octacoon
When a Quadroon mates with a caucasian the offspring is an octacoon. Simple math states that 1/4 coon + caucasian = octacoon.
Shameeka and Wallace looked proudly at their newborn quadroon. Each was hoping someday the bloodlines would continue to be watered down and they would be proud grandparents of a octacoon.

Octacocked
To be put in a situation or at a disadvantage so severe that it is impossible to recover from. It is a metaphor for being done such an extreme wrong that the person being wronged does not feel as though they were merely raped, but raped eight times, simultaneously.

otakon
Largest anime convention on the East Coast of the USA. Known for its annual expansion to engulf the entire Baltimore City Convention Center. Also known for batshit crazy lines and the large volume of cosplayers and other curious types who invade the city and amuse and/or terrify residents and eat all the food at the nearest fast food joints.
Lasts three days in July or August and is usually followed up by exhausted and giddy blog posts. Notable events at the 'kon are the anime music videos, the masquerade, the rave, and in recent years concerts held by Japanese musicians such as L'Arc~en~Ciel.

Otaku A: OMG did you see the line for the Laruku concert? It wrapped around entire city blocks!
Otaku B: No I didn't see it... I was IN IT. >:O
