What does “Stan” mean???....

Here you go, toots.

Your biggest fan.

God, old people are so fucking annoying. Go listen to Eminem's "Stan".

I believe it is a portmanteau of stalker and fan.

R4 wins.

End of thread.

OP, next time, let Google be your friend...

Obviously a hip reference to the great..

Oops, I thought OP was referring to “Stan” as in Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan etc. I see now, I was very mistaken. 🤣🤣

Other than the term stan, which has its roots in an Eminem song, yes Millenials do sound stupid when they talk. As a Millenial myself, I cannot stand their slang.

"Slaaay" No. Stay away from me. "Don't you even?" No. Never. "I just can't" Then DON'T.

Nice theory R4. According to Wikipedia, the term traces back to the Eminem song. It entered the Oxford English Dictionary in 2017.

Uncensored.

[quote] As a Millenial myself, I cannot stand their slang.

EVERY generation has/had slang unique to that generation.

Language is a living thing.

"Stan" has been used widely on the internet for almost 20 years, and its hardly a term millennials invented. I can't imagine how out of touch OP must be if she is bent out of shape about it.

She must also be a Pete Buttigieg stan.

R10 uh yeah I never said anything about whether generations have unique slang or not. I said that Millenial's slang sounds lame and illiterate as fuck. Just because language is a living thing doesn't give you poetic license to bastardize it. Get it now?

R13, I get that you started a post out with "uh" so I stopped paying attention until you can figure out what it is you'd like to say.

Not an Eminem fan, OP?

R3, that song is almost 20 years old and hasn't been popular since I was in high school. I feel 'dated' now!
