‘Gooner’ = Arsenal FC fan. We’ve used that term for decades (it started out as a sarcastic variation of ‘gunner’ used by opposition fans, but we adopted it). This stupid new slang meaning for the word can fuck off.
Here (AU) goon is a (bad, usually) 4L box wine. Seems like the word has a lot of meanings. I saw a meme with ‘I answered your call mid goon, that’s how much I respect you’ and was like, if I answer you mid goon, I so don’t respect you.
So am I but I don’t go around public speaking about it
holy shit, AOL is still around
Now that’s an Onion-y headline!
the Anne Hathaway kind, or the to Anne Hathaway kind
I didn’t get it could you explain/send the link pleeeaseee
a couple years ago basically this exact same story happened with Anne Hathaway. there was an interview in a British publication where she mentioned she was an arsenal fan and it was published with the headline “Anne Hathaway reveals she’s a secret gooner” which was received differently by audiences who are not familiar with British sports teams
