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.

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.

Surf Dracula Syndrome
A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.
For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.

I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
