Gowngooning

When suck-ups and shills dog pile someone who dares to question the integrity or honesty of their in-group's activities, particularly in defense of authority they hope to earn favor from. Often seen in online communities or workplaces, where individuals seek to protect the status quo or curry favor with those in power by collectively attacking dissenters.

I pointed out how shady it was that one person averages more than 4 raffle wins every October event, and within minutes there was gowngooning by the whole group trying to shut me down.

Get the Gowngooning mug.

goongooning

It means any form of wasting time, and is often used on social media as a synonym of the word "Doomscrolling". Many people do not like this new definition to the word and oppose it as I do myself but sadly more and more people are using this definition. This meaning the word is also the meaning of the word used in the word "jestergooning". The defintion overtime has been greatly broadened.

Context: (February 2026 meaning) Technically, the term is goongooning as it is a compound, but people really just say gooning. This seems redundant, that because it is, but it is made to make some sort of differentiation between the main meaning of gooning and the second, more niche meaning, which is this one.

"To goon or to maxx, that is the question."
"Stop gooning on tiktok bro do your work!"
"He gooned in his bed asleep instead of getting up when he knew he had stuff to do".
"He was goongooning on reels"
