  • What’s an Anorak?

    The term ‘Anorak‘ as well as a waterproof coat, is used in the UK as ‘slang’ to describe a person whose apparent interest and gathering of data surrounding their hobby is classed as obsessive and could be boring to another person.

    People who wear anoraks in their social life are often stereotyped as ‘trainspotters’ with unimaginative and dull pastimes/hobbies, but to the enthusiast there is nothing else worth talking about.

    The anorak feels compelled to talk for hours about their subject to anyone and everyone.

    Although I don’t wear an anorak I am an eBay Anorak.

    Well, now you know me, what about you? Are you an eBay Anorak too?
