Definition: Fanboy

Fanboy or fanboi is a term used to describe a male who is utterly devoted to a single subject or hobby, often to the point where it is considered an obsession. Read more at Wikipedia. Usage example of fanboy from this Flickr post: "The prologue winner, Levi Leipheimer, spins back to the start after the race to collect the spoils of victory. Not in the picture are the 15 or so fanboys following on their bikes."
