Ackward...

[Otaku]

I was just coming out of the bathroom and passed a teacher, to which she said, "otsukare sama." WTF!?!?

[jeisensei]

That's a new one to me. Could it be that she was talking about a class you did earlier in the day? Or maybe making school lunch in the teacher's room? I can't imagine most things done normally in the bathroom would make anyone that "tsukareta"

[moolooman]

As long as you didn't 'pass' a teacher while you were in the bathroom. I would be questioning my diet if that was the case.

Otaku seriously speaking here, it had nothing to do with your visit to the bathroom. The phrase is a toss away phrase/greeting used between people who work together in any business.

Students would not say it to teachers, and teachers would not say it to students. In a manner of speaking the teacher was greeting you as an equal coworker. I should add for clarification it also means something like much appreciated and thanks for your hard work.

HEY! You stole my NY "ACKWARD"!!!!!

But I guess you were trying to express ACK! -ward as in, surpise and disgust rolled into one? So I will let it slide...this once...

Next time get your own typo. Like maybe YUCK-ward or BLARG-ward or UGK-ward to describe a gross situation.

One of you bastards appreciate my witty joke.

Joke reaction -> heh heh
I actually did laugh out loud but I had to stifle it because I am in the teacher's room.

[Kanashibari]

Were you in there an unusually long time, and came out with a flushed face???

"Hey, you mooks!"

*thought I'd try and get in on the NY thing with a stereotypical phrase.

Being someone from New England (no comment if it is better or worse than the old one) and living close enough to NY to know many a people from there, I just have to say that I have never heard anyone say "mook." I sort of like it though hah

I believe that's the case, I've heard in in a few 'gangster' type movies.

[jeisensei]

Oh! We are talking old timey New York or maybe Chicago. I think they probably did use mook, but than again they all used to say "cat's pajamas" and "struggle buggy." (I always get a kick out of that last one)

Courtesy of the urban dictionary;(Personally I like the 2nd one better!)

Mook-

mook 1520 up, 754 down
A term coined by Douglas Rushkoff in an episode of PBS's "Frontline" entitled "The Merchants of Cool." Mooks are archetypal young males(teens-early 20s) who act like moronic boneheads. They are self centered simpletons who live a drunken frat-boy lifestyle(or are frat-boys). Examples can be found anytime someone watches "Jackass." Rushkoff claimed that the media glorifies this ideal and stifles natural self expression, however, some people might argue teenage boys have always acted like morons(its actually a long-standing stereotype). Nonetheless, standardized conformist dumbass-culture behind a veneer of exhuberance is a scary notion indeed.

Coined in the Scorsese film, 'Mean Streets', meaning a arsehole or loser.
I'm not paying, because this guy's a mook

Moronic boneheads.

I laughed and people in the office stared.

Oh boy.

I also work a part time job in a department store. Feels so weird when they say that to me in the bathroom.

They call you a moronic bonehead in the bathroom? Not very nice of 'em.
