A term of endearment in the festival community, but also an insult. The word "wook" has been used ironically so many times, that it has replaced the word "hippy." The word is popularly used in memes. These resilient creatures can go days without food and they drink bottled water that has been left out in the sun for four days.

A wook is a person who is very good at meeting their needs through other people. Some wooks do this through good relationships with many people and often have something to bring to the table by way of those relationships. Working class wooks often have a little more to contribute in wookdom. At the other end of the spectrum are bad wooks who steal shit. Thankfully most wooks are good wooks. One enters wook life by spending down their own resources, often on festival tickets, fuel and party favors all the while developing connections that will help them thrive in wookdom. In social science terms, wooks know how to maximize social capital better than many others. Good wooks create an alternative economy to what we experience mainstream. Finally, wooks are not to be confused with spunions, though there could be overlap. Disregard all definitions that begin "dirty hippie."

A dirty hippie that will bum of you for money, drugs, or anything in general. They exclusively listen to bassnectar and crawl out of K holes. They are known to boof ketamine.

Derogatory term for a female Marine. Short for "wookie," it refers to the apparent trend that attractive women tend to shy away from joining the corps, and we get what's left.

Slur for females in the military, namely Marines. Used to describe the often manly nature of their being, while expressing disdain for their existence.

A dirty hippie; one who wears recycled clothes, probably has done a lot of drugs, and might smell like your dirty underpants after a hot and sweaty afternoon.

A real dirty hippie

A female Marine being called a Wook is on the assumption that most Marines who happen to be female also happen to be unattractive, undesirable, sexual trash. These terms are often heard as whispered exceptions.

REAL - Contrary to the popular belief, and this is confirmed by NPR News and Mike Sager of CA Sunday Magazine, who wrote an article about 'wooks' and 'wook' culture, 'wook' is NOT synonymous with hippie nor does it refer to anyone outside of the cannabis community. While there is a strong association with cannabis use, specifically dabbing or hash oil consumption, the term is not extended to those who participate in alternative drug use, such as hallucinogenics and opiates, nor to those who lead "hipppie" or "bohemian" lifestyles. These people are referred to as "hippies." And "bohemians." While a 'wook' can be a bohemian/hippie, a bohemian/hippie is not a 'wook.' Much like a square is a rectangle, but a rectangle is not a square. The term 'wook' originates from the Lucasfilms Trademark, "Wookie," describing its intended recipients as hairy, wooly, tattooed, and/or often dirty, grimy, or unshaven. There is also an artisanal or connoisseurial association with the term, often siting those labeled as 'wooks' to be snobbish/pretentious regarding the quality of hash oil they are producing or consuming. While this term can be used derogatorily, those who identify themselves as 'wooks' treat it more as a term of endearment or cultural recognition. In the most basic terms, a 'wook' is an oil-head in the cannabis culture who generally places an over-dramatized significance on the quality of the oil they are producing/consuming. Again, these people are not to be confused with hippies.
