A duck duck goose girl (or guy)...is a person that has been benched by someone who is stringing multiple people along in a sexual or romantic way. Said "player" keeps his or her harem of simping partners on hold in a limbo of breadcrumbing as "ducks", until ready to choose the next "goose". They ramp up engaging behavior to manipulate said "goose" into chasing them, ideally for sex, but also for attention/ego. Then they put them back on hold as a "duck" once they get bored, and repeat the cycle all over again, choosing a different goose. These are avoidants who like to have a steady rotation of suitors in waiting, often longterm FWBs, always thinking they might be chosen. In reality- these people are emotionally immature, unable to engage in real intimacy, and often have fragile egos that they prop up by manipulating partners. Often, these people will keep a secret harem of "ducks" on hold during relationships with a "goose", until they either break up with them, or get broken up with. Regardless- their ducks will get breadcrumbed on the sneak during entire relationships because they can't ever fully invest themselves in commitment. They always have one foot out the door, and "ducks" are the back up options.
"I'm done being one of your duck duck goose girl. You want me to be there for you to use only when it's convenient or comforting to you, but you don't wanna reciprocate. You're busy getting your ego stroked by girls who haven't caught on yet. Keep your lame ass limbo- those girls can have you. I'm taking back my self respect."

Unlike its plastic poultry predecessor đ€, "rubber duck debugging," this cheeky version, "Silly-Goose Debugging" comes with encouraging head tilts, well-timed sass đ, and the inevitable 'silly goose' when you forget something as tragic as a semicolon đ±đ. Silly-Goose Debugging is what happens when a programmer vents their code confusion to a trusted humanâusually a friend, partner, or unsuspecting bystanderđ€âwho doesnât speak fluent code but somehow ends up dissecting your logic like a crime scene investigator đ”ïž. Theyâll patiently ask you to walk through each step like you're wiring a spaceship with spaghetti and hope đđ, then hit you with, "Wait⊠so you meant for it to skip that part?" By the end, youâre fully goosifiedđȘż: bug squashedđȘ, logic sharpenedđ, and ego mildly bruised (in the best way) đ
.
âNote:
Silly-Goose Debugging isnât about technical expertiseâitâs about breaking down complex logic by verbalizing it with someone who helps you see things differently. It works because explaining things simply forces clarity, and a fresh perspective (even from a non-coder) can work wonders.
This term is perfect for anyone whoâs ever solved a bug just by talking it out with a supportive human instead of a squeaky plastic duck.đ€Ș

Example: "I couldnât figure out why my function wasnât returning the right value, so I did some Silly-Goose Debugging with my partner. As I explained each step, they kept stopping me with totally non-tech questions like, "Wait, why did it do that?"âand before I knew it, I was officially goosified. That back-and-forth made me realize I was missing a return statement. They didnât even know what a loop was, but their outside-the-box questions led me straight to the fix."
