i tried to find the origin of the word after I saw that
for reference, the first use of it was Stan, the insane fan who murders his girlfriend and wife to get attention from his hero, in the Eminem song. I think he picked the name based on "biggest fan" rhyming with "this is Stan" - picking names because they rhyme is a signature part of his style

and via that it became part of hip-hop culture (Nas made a diss track where he referred to his opponent as a Stan)
it became a common insult in hip-hop, emerged via ohnotheydidnt as a way to make fun of obsessive fans outside of the hip-hop community specifically,
and now it's just its own thing
