Deliberate mispelling of the word 'fanboy' typically referring to an annoying, immature fan of a specific video game console.
fanbois typically spend most of their free time telling anyone who will listen how perfect thier console of choice is, and how inferior all other products are. fanbois will not stop annoying other people until everyone they know is converted to their way of thinking.

An extremely devoted follower of a particular media (i.e. film, film director, band, TV series, writer) who takes their love a step further by deriding those who have an opposing opinion. Early use of the term had been directed to anime and Stars Wars "geeks". However, growing popularity of both has limited this stereotype and "newer" fanboy subjects tend to be more polarizing in popularity. Typically, fanboys spend their time lurking around internet messageboards, calling any detractor of their media a "troll", "idiot" or just allege detractor(s) don't "understand" particular subject. Knee-jerk responses like this (over rational, intelligent discussion) makes for quick and easy attribution. Fanboys are also known for creating their own realities and interpretations of their beloved subjects.
The nu-metal band Tool and film director Wes Anderson are both noted for having fanboy followings.

TARANTINO FANBOY: I just watched "The Untouchables" last night, wow did that movie rip off "Pulp Fiction"!
NOT A FANBOY: Did Brian DePalma time travel 7 years ahead of 1987? I didn't know they had that technology back then.
TARANTINO FANBOY: OK, well then, "City on Fire" ripped off "Reservoir Dogs", the plot similarities are too close for comfort!
NOT A FANBOY: I guess Ringo Lam must have time traveled as well, because City of Fire was also released in 1987, well before Reservoir Dogs.
TARANTINO FANBOY: That is a lie! U R nothing but a Tarantino hater, U should stick to Disney and the Family Channel and leave the unique original filmmaking up to US!!!!!
