“Hired goons” has a whole new meaning
Makes me think that “goon” was a self censorship of “gun”.
DAE remember when “Gay Boner” meant happy mistake?
Terminally online folk in the 2000s: “do you have stairs in your house?”
It also meant and still means cheap cask wine. taps head
Ah, the cry of teen parties everywhere in Australia when someone rips open the box, exposing the bladder: “Gooooooon!”
You can still goon to them if you like.
In EvE Online, Goonswarm Federation usually goes by Imperium these days to crib GamesWorkshops branding for 40k and to get away from their old leader and past problomatic branding… For an online army of 10k angry nerds, got to look presentable…
I will admit, online names used to have a bit more leaniency for being immature.
It’s like pov or insulting people as npc. I kind of like that the newer generations used more gaming words. The kids of gaming parents are talking :D
