Definitions

1

Inside r/wallstreetbets, a badge of pride for posters who go hyper-deep on a single ticker — pulling 10-Ks, mapping float, building DCFs at 3am. Used affectionately within the sub for a poster whose obsessive analysis pays off. Outside that context the word is offensive; WSB knows this and uses it anyway as part of its deliberately abrasive culture.

“Some autist on WSB called the GME squeeze 18 months early.”
