FOB = Fresh off boat, generally a term coined to asian people/immigrants that have yet to embrace the living style of where they live. Meaning they generally associate themselves with other asians/immigrants. With that said, there are plenty at the university i go to

The mom ones are funny.
[QUOTE=thisispain;16107991]if they go to universities, they could afford better transportation than boats[/QUOTE] It's a stereotype, a sarcastic name, doesn't necessarily mean they came on boats. It usually describes how unfamiliar they are with the place they live in
Ah yeah, this happens in my family sometimes :v:
Asian parents seem to be more "fob" than hispanic parents by the looks of this sight [quote]Me: I don’t think I’m gonna do too well on my exams. Mom (jokingly): You will do good on exams. Because if you don’t do good on exams, I will fuck you! Do you want to get fucked?![/quote]
So basically the site makes fun of people from a different generation who don't understand the way things work nowadays so we constantly ridicule them about their lack of knowledge of today's society and technology? Sounds awesome

I thought of "Father of a Bitch." You know, SOB... But thats not very nice...because [i]everyone[/i] loves grandma.
I once called my roommate at a summer thing a FOB (as a joke), and he was half Chinese. He got super depressed and wouldn't talk to me for a week. Later I realized he was completely bi-polar and a total pain to be around most of the time.
[QUOTE=Ins4ne;16105074]FOB stands for Fresh off the Boat which is like Asians. Basically its a site that makes fun of Asians cause of there accents and other stuff that happens to them.[/QUOTE] Sounds racist
[QUOTE=proboardslol;16110926]Sounds racist[/QUOTE] It is.
[QUOTE=DJFender;16110973]It is.[/QUOTE] No one said that asians are inferior. Making fun of a race doesn't make you a racist.
FOB sounds racist. :v:
I don't understand. Is this racist?
[QUOTE=Doriol;16111020]Making fun of a race doesn't make you a racist.[/QUOTE] Yes Yes it does
[QUOTE=proboardslol;16111247]Yes Yes it does[/QUOTE] Nope.
[QUOTE=Doriol;16111264]Nope.[/QUOTE] What makes someone racist then?
Why, my parent is Pete Wentz!
Dang sam clup try to trick the asian people
In Australia, FOB's are usually Maori's or Pollenesians.
[QUOTE=DJFender;16111293]What makes someone racist then?[/QUOTE] By definition, being racist is "Thinking or supporting the idea that a race is inferior to other races". That being said, these sites, although not racist by definition, could be offensive. And in my book, offensive is funny sometimes.

[QUOTE=DJFender;16111293]What makes someone racist then?[/QUOTE] Honestly believing that a race is inferior to others. Joking, however, does not make you racist.
