      First of all...Fob's are immigrants a.k.a. Fresh off the boat. There are many kinds of fobs (i cant really take credit for this becuz i got this off a site. I added some in)
      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 are confused about your cultural identity and express this frustration through spoken word performances at your college
      You read A. magazine and think it's great
      You do not know who Leon, Aaron, Sammi, Hikki, or Kangta are
      You are only vaguely aware of the other Asians below

      a) Medicine / Pharmaceutical
      b) Engineering
      c) Finance
      d) Investment Banking
      e) Accounting
      Most of your wardrobe was purchased at Banana Republic
      You go to mixers on Thursday nights to meet other Yaps and talk about the Dow Jones.
      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)

      You were not born in America
      You know who Leon, Aaron, Sammi, Hikki, and Kangta are. In fact, you have seen them at Atlantic City or Las Vegas recently
      You speak your native language fluently and so do all your friends
      You do not have any non-Asian friends
      Your parents do not speak any English
      When you speak English, you like to make everything plural
      You get extremely good grades in school
      You cannot dance
      Your fashion sense comes from whatever country you're from and you incorporate nothing from American fashion into your wardrobe

      SuperFob

      Your command of the English language is minimal and you don't care
      You like dim sum chicken feet
      You do not own a single CD, VCD, Video game, or DVD that isn't bootlegged
      Your only hangout is Chinatown
      All the lights in your house are fluorescent
      You dry your cloths outside your window
      You need a haircut
      You either smell like cigarettes or food

      Fobabee

      You are an Asian-American or Twinkie who has recently awoken
      You have a newly found fetish of Asian girls/boys
      You have taken the Asian Studies course at college
      You are trying to learn as much as possible about your culture to make up for your lifetime of trying to be white (Twinkie ; Banana) or Black (Chigger ; Tea egg)
      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
      You want to have a Tab girlfriend, but can only get Hoochie Tabs

      Tab (Trendy Asian B*tch)

      You shop at A/X, Bebe and Club Monaco
      You only wear black and will occasionally wear white to mix

          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.
