beccaelizabethHave seen used, often, the term 'wank' to refer to any discussion that is getting too wound up over small stuff.
I learned the term 'fanwank' in a rather different context - it's what fans do when a bit of canon doesn't seem to fit, when it kinda sits there sticking out awkwardly. They fiddle around with it until they reach a satisfying conclusion.
Did that definition go away? Or is the 'fan' part just that important?
