Unless we're coming from two different timelines, nobody used this term until 2019. I remember the first time I saw it was on ifunny, because on this meme it said "We Stan _______" something. I don't remember what it was. But the top comments were asking what the fuck that means. We stan? This wasn't that long ago at all, a few months.

GhettoFlip 01/23/20 3:19:14 AM #89:	Purely posted... No, it fucking hasn't. Unless we're coming from two different timelines, nobody used this term until 2019. I remember the first time I saw it was on ifunny, because on this meme it said "We Stan _______" something. I don't remember what it was. But the top comments were asking what the fuck that means. We stan? This wasn't that long ago at all, a few months. I don't know why you're trying to act like people have been saying it since the song came out. Back in the early 2000s, we didn't say things that made no sense. Stan isn't a verb, it's a name. You can't "stan" something.
