Slang derived from the song aptly titled "Stan" from the Marshall Mathers LP, in which an obsessive fan named Stan goes as far as to kill himself in order to be recognised by his idol, in this case, Marshall Mathers. Stan is generally considered to be a portmanteau of "(st)alker" and "f(an)".

In recent times, the definition has just been changed to "someone who supports a creator a large amount", but many feel that doesn't do the term "stan" justice.

''Stan'' a word that expresses someone obsession to a certain celebrity or community but it is also a name given to homo-sexual fucks who don't have any real friends, thats why these people are inside most of the time eating ramen noodles and jerking off to anime charachters because they are also lolicons.
