Stanning 

The act of being overly obsessed with an artist/person/character/etc.

STalker + fAN = STAN

Eminem's song "Stan" embodied all the aspects of what it means to be a huge fanatic of a music artist, and the word has since been used to encompass all obsessive fan behavior.
My Xander love comes from my Buffy stanning.

I've been stanning Beyonce for so long I couldn't stop if I wanted to.

Stanning 

Stanning is defending / supporting something or someone you really like no matter how problematic they are to the point of being obsessed, delusional or looking away from serious things that harm people, even if it harms the very thing/person you claim to love.
Why are you stanning them so hard??? We all saw what they did. It's on video!

Stanning 

"Stanning" is the act of correcting one's grammar at every possible moment you can. If you are a 'stanner' you simply cannot stop correcting once you start. It's a mental disorder that anyone can suffer from.
"Your way too over-the-top with all this correcting man!"
"Uhm, actually it's You're, nice try retard"
"Stop stanning me, please"
