Used as a disparaging term for a person of East Asian birth or descent (possibly only Viet Cong) by US soldiers during the Vietnam War.
From a description of a radio transmission recorded during the Vietnam War:
"This mission is a troop insert into an area about two miles west of LZ Baldy. Turned out to be a base camp. As you can tell on the tape, gooners with packs and rifles were skying in all directions when the 46's landed on top of 'em."
Refers to female girls/woman who are strangely addicted to men who wear facial hair. (beards, mustache, fu-manchu, etc;). Most of which female gender girls/women are more often then not name Sabrina, Shelly, or Yvonne.
Someone who is extremely weird is known as a "Gooner"
