Up until very recently, “goon” meant something different and had no sexual connotation whatsoever. I’m still a little hazy on what “goon” has turned into, and why.

Not that recently, urban dictionary has a post from 2006 that defines goon as a chronic masturbater or as the act of masturbation.

Wow, history right before our eyes.

Less than 20 years is pretty recently. I have t-shirts older than the new use of “goon.”

Wow, so Something Awful was being very prescient 20 years ago when they came up with the name for their cooking forum.

I was thinking of this remix as soon as I saw someone asking for a definition. It’s the best.

From specific characters in Popeye comics to a general "someone's thugs" to chronic masturbation. Quite an unexpected ride for the meaning of a word.
