R-stan

(noun)
/ɑ r stæn/

Definition:
A Respectful Stan — a fan who supports an artist, creator, or public figure with genuine admiration while respecting their boundaries, privacy, and humanity.

Unlike obsessive or intrusive fandom behavior, an R-Stan believes that true support includes empathy, consent, and kindness. Being an R-Stan means celebrating someone’s work, not controlling their life.

Origin:
Coined by a fan who wanted to redefine what it means to support someone, after noticing how often the term fan is used for people who act disrespectfully toward artists.
The “R” stands for Respectful.
“She’s not the type to invade artists’ space — she’s an R-Stan.”

Smart-Stan

Smart-Stan: A modern phenomenon inspired by Eminem’s "Stan," describing someone who repeatedly messages you on their smartphone and becomes extremely anxious or frustrated when you don’t respond promptly. Whether you’re busy, asleep, or simply don’t want to engage, they take it to the extreme, embodying that intense, obsessive energy. When they finally meet you in person, they can get really angry and frustrated, and calling them a "Smart-Stan" would make perfect sense to them.
Lee: Bruv, I used to work with this guy named Paul, and he was a proper smart-stan. He’d message me and get all worked up if I didn’t reply LOL.
Frank: really? bruv LOL.
Lee: He’d confront me in person, and I’d just laugh he. go mental say I hate it when people don't text back and then I started calling him Stan Bruv and he told everyone, and everyone laughed, even he found it funny.
Frank: That's bear jokes. Bruv LOL.
Lee: Init Bruv LOL.

I was bussin' with excitement when I saw the pfp of my friend’s glow up on my FYP. No cap, she’s been slaying lately, and I was like, "Yasss, that’s a major W!" But then, she texted me and said the party was a vibe check—the drip was on point, but the music was pure cringe. I was like, "Bruh, how is that even possible?" She said the DJ was simping for his ex, and the whole thing was just chuggy. I felt that FOMO hit hard, but I didn’t want to go because I didn’t wanna be the no way person in the corner. But I had to text her, "ILY, but I’m good." The whole thing seemed like a cursed situation. Fr, I wasn’t about to yeet myself into that chaos, so I just chilled at home. Fr fr, sometimes it’s better to stay in and save yourself from a L.

nachos (stan twitter)

In Stan Twitter, "nachos" refers to an aesthetic, style, or era that a person has or is associated with.

When someone "reheats ______ nachos", it means they are either trying out another person's style in a new light, or reliving their own past style.

The term's context came from a video showing Natalie Nunn and Stunna Girl having a conversation, with Natalie continuously looking at Stunna's nachos, as if she wants those too.
Example of nachos (stan twitter):
"Tate McRae reheated some of Britney's nachos and honestly I'm here for it."
