I love this history, but I can't help but add the more recent evolution of "stan".
I feel like I saw this on HN, but I can't find it in algolia so I'll post it again.

p.s. I have found a couple of comment references (e.g. credit_guy), but they're all from almost a year ago.
> the first recorded use of "stan" as a verb ... was in a tweet from April 2008. It got no replies, no retweets, and no likes.
