        Twinkie

        Besides your nationality, there is little to distinguish you from white people
        Your significant other is not Asian and never has been
        You have few Asian friends, if any
        You are embarrassed at family events because you cannot speak your language and everyone has to switch to English to communicate with you
        You have no idea that the other types of Asians on this list even exist
        You think Hello Kitty is dumb and do not know what Sanrio is
        You are the only Asian on this list that does not know what Bubble Tea is
        You drive a Ford or some other domestic car and if you drive a Honda, it is stock

        Asian-American

        You claim yourself as Asian, but real Asians think you're whitewashed and non-Asians see you as a foreigner. You fit in nowhere
        You have heard of Bubble Tea but have never actually had any

        You did exactly what your parents wanted you to do and as a result, your life is hella boring
        Your apartment/home is decorated almost exclusively with stuff from Pier 1
        Your parents always talk to their friends about how much money you make. If they don't, then you're a dissapointment

        Fob (Fresh Off tha Boat)

        If you are lucky, you will grow to become Fobulous

        Gangsta Fob (Fobsta)

        You have shot another Asian
        Your favorite hangout is a pool hall
        When you talk, you sound like a cross between a Fob and an urban black kid
        Your hair looks silly, but no one will tell you because you'll shoot them
        You have a serious gambling problem
        You are a Rice-boy, but your mods are cheap and are never painted to match the rest of your car
        No one tells you your rice ride looks cheap because you'll shoot them

            FOB - is a degrading term for people not up to date on the culture which is an abbreviation for (Fresh Of the Boat.)
            meaning you still carry your sense of fashion from your country which clashes with the current countries cultures.

            Origin: Hawaii 60's

            Local Hawaiians used it to refer to white people who came from mainland US to Hawaii. Its was used a lot by locals and surfers. it was to refer to white people who wasn't up to date on the culture.

            It is now used a lot by Asians to refer to immigrant Asians of the same sense.
