ligaasin

Ligaasin is a term that has gained some informal usage, particularly within online communities and gaming contexts, to refer to a state of being overly enthusiastic or dedicated to something to the point of obsession. It is not a formally recognized psychological or sociological term. The word itself is a portmanteau, a blend of "liga" (often associated with leagues or competitive groups) and "ass-in," implying a deep and unwavering commitment.

Individuals described as being "ligaasin" are typically characterized by their intense focus on a particular activity, often a video game, sport, or online community. This can manifest as spending significant amounts of time engaging with the activity, discussing it extensively, and prioritizing it over other aspects of their lives. While this dedication can sometimes lead to high levels of skill or achievement, it can also be perceived as excessive or detrimental by others. The term is generally used in a casual and often humorous way, though it can also carry a slightly critical undertone depending on the context and speaker's intent. There is no clinical definition or diagnostic criteria associated with "ligaasin."
