Shimbo

« Back to Glossary Index

Shimbo is internet slang that refers to someone who is overly obsessed with fictional characters or celebrities and often imagines romantic relationships with them. They tend to fantasize about these characters or celebrities and may spend a significant amount of time discussing or thinking about them online.

Example 1:
Person A: Did you see that new movie with the popular actor?
Person B: Yeah, it was good, but there’s this online group that takes it to the extreme. They’re constantly shipping the actor with the main female character, even creating fanfictions about them. They’re such shimbo!

Example 2:
Person X: I noticed our friend spends most of their time on social media talking about their favorite band members.
Person Y: Yeah, they’re totally shimbo. They’re always posting pictures of the band members with captions like “my future husband” or “forever in love.” It’s a bit excessive if you ask me.
