wab
n.— «You half-baked beaners should learn English, damn it! You fat, piss-drunk, chicharron-eating wabs! None of you belong here! I see a lot of wasted space in my country gesturing at his own muscular chest occupied by you wabs jabbing his finger at the audience ! All of you Mexicans can kiss my great white ass!» —“The Mexican-American War, every Sunday in Anaheim” by Gustavo Arellano OC Weekly (California) Feb. 2, 2001. (source: Double-Tongued Dictionary)
