In slang, "anorak" typically refers to someone who is overly enthusiastic or obsessive about a particular topic, often to the point of being socially awkward. This term originally came from British slang, where "anorak" refers to a type of waterproof jacket often worn by train spotters or other hobbyists who spend a lot of time outdoors.
