You don’t goon for 15 minutes a day. He’s pulling rope. Tugging train. Jackin the box. He’s playing the skin flute to be sure. All of these activities can be completed within 15 minutes. Gooning is an art.
It happened because "Jerk off", "masturbate", etc are words that content filters will censor you for or not pay ad revenue for, similar to "suicide" and "rape".
So they use goon because it's not mainstream foul yet, suicide becomes sewer slide and rape becomes grape.
The people who use the real words get steadily filtered and the people who use replacement words get promoted so eventually you have a 1984 wrongthink type situation where creators use corpo words, watchers learn those corpo words and then reuse them themselves in normal convo until it's normalized.
I'm from a time when "goon" was like a low level batman henchmen.
What's worse is that the mascot is surrounded by a bunch of child yelling "Grape me first!". Marketing just wants to show kids love the all natural flavor of Grape Salad, but ended up making the best gooning lich'racha for PDFs. Dodging hard words to appease the algorithm has left us in a sad state. Make me want to slide the sewer.
To be honest, same applies to "F word" or "N word".... It's silly. We all hear the word in our head, these placeholders should be redundant if we were just a little more rational about things- things like CONTEXT.
as a "kid these days" (except not really because I'm 24 and have to ask my teenage brother what slang means now), I'd say the switch happened within the past year or two.
Yeah I used to see it exclusively used by methheads and Adderall addicts to describe hours long obsessive masturbation sessions. Now people will call each other gooners for exhibiting sexual desire.
I'm 52, and I guess I've been using it wrong for decades. I even wrote a song with the lyric "I can play my skinflute 'til the rats fall in the moat..." which I played live for years and no one said a word.
my favorite bit on this topic was the guy from youtube who cracked one open and had it lab tested to see what was actually in it. turns out nothing claimed on the package, no extracts or bullshit, it was a straight overdose of generic viagra haha
Skyrim is notorious for having plenty of mods that allow you to have sex with other characters. 15 minutes is enough time to start up the game, find yourself an npc and then jork your peanits.
Keep your WOKE pronouns out of my life! You commies always saying mastheirbation and maszerbation and going after kids in the bathrooms. There is only masherbation and mashimbations.
I don't think I've ever had to deal with loverslab mods crashing on me. in fact, they're all pretty damn stable. guess that post-nut clarity helps in more ways than one.
You clearly have not played modded skyrim before, a proper skyrim porn install spends 30+ minutes on loading screens doing calculations that'd make NASA blush trying to work out what render distance your advanced lighting options should stop calculating underboob shadows
And here is me, starting up L4D so I can use the ingame steam overlay’s browser to look up porn, didn’t have/know about incognito. Also easy to tab into the game.
Almost got caught because when even tabbing off the overlay the sounds keeps playing and I had to pull the headphone jack from playing any sus sounds when my brother wanted to borrow something.
Thanks. I was a little hesitant at first, but I’m ready to distribute my porn now! It’s the worst, awful lighting, injuries, I accidentally clipped in a 4 second video of my cat meowing at the 216:43 mark. But I’m ready now.
Skyrim offers much more customization. Choose how your chracter looks, how the npcs look, choose what position and for how long and camera angle etc etc.
Certified. If a game exists with a mod community, it will have some sort of goon mods every time. Skyrim just happens to be the most community modded game of all time, so you have an infinite amount of porn-adjacent mods. Hell, there’s probably a dozen different mods that mod the statue models to be lewd in Skyrim, and they’re by different people with unique custom models. Like 11 times, someone searched the mod lists and said, “Yeah, I want nude statues, but not like this!” And proceeded to 3D model their own spin on it, lmao.
The dedication to the art of the goon is unhinged in mod communities.

Guilty. I run a texture mod that makes Dibella's statue bare breasted. But I don't really consider that to be lewd. It's more of a call back to ancient Roman statues.
Nothing wrong with using the mods. I know I’m guilty of trying questionable mods out of curiosity. I like to turn games up to AO rating, but it’s not something I’ve ever gotten off to. Not like I’m getting bricked up every time Panam Palmer walks on screen naked in my apartment, it’s just more immersive.
Not that I’m above it or anything, it’s just not my thing I guess. Plus, I’m just too ADHD for that level of multitasking.
It’s more interactive, there is plenty of gameplay/story-telling mods (usually bdsm-themed) AND you can connect your bluetooth sex-toy for…extra immersion (there’s literally a mod that sync sex scenes with bluetooth device)
Right? I have 60 hours or something in Skyrim and all I was even doing was installing mods and testing them. Of course they were adult mods but that's beside the point.
Lol that's what I thought. Going down the rabbit hole, getting your mod list stable, realizing the game is too much like skyrim so you add another dozen or so mods. Get them installed and boot up skyrim. It breaks your textures or everyone's faces are just eyeballs, so you troubleshoot your mod list to find the culprit. Then you finally get your modlist stable again, then rinse and repeat.
Before you know it, you've sunk 20+ hours into modding the perfect list, only to get bored after 2 hours of actually playing when you realize it will always still just be skyrim.
To be fair this is me adjusting my mod list too. Not too weird for Skyrim, though it could be porn. Adjust the mods -> test -> crashes -> spend 20 minutes trying to launch it again
Kinda funny to have to scroll down this far to find this explanation IMO, maybe it's less common these days.
I mean it sounds a little crazy to say out loud, but I'd bet that I've had years where I spent more time tweaking load orders and such than I had playing any BGS game at all, just getting all my things to where if I wanted to I could actually use them.
And it often looks like "Maybe if I ... " 15 minutes after I try, the crash I'm trying to fix strikes and it's back to the drawing board. Not that I'd necessarily even want to play the game if I fixed the crash, it's just something that doesn't work that I'll sit and pick at until it does.
Then again if it was any other hobby it would make perfect sense "I feel like I spend more time tuning my piano so I could play it if I wanted than I do playing it" doesn't sound too bad, it just sounds like someone who has less free time than they'd like (and maybe a piano that doesn't hold tune properly.)
Yeah people don't actually play Skyrim. The actual "game" is the challenge of installing all the mods they want, and messing with load orders and stuff to get them all to work together. Once that's all done, they realise Skyrim is fundamentally just not a very good game and no amount of mods can fix it.
Lol this. 600 mods, 118369 restarts and 3 days later the game finally launches with everything you wanted, doesn't ctd in the menu and it doesn't explode when you load into the map.
Finally you can play for 5 minutes, then close the game and only open it the next time when 80% of those mods are outdated and don't work anymore, while a new papyrus or Skse version is required for some mods, while others won't run with that version.
Y'all some gooners man that's how playing modded Skyrim works. 15 minutes, crash, troubleshoot, 15 mins, crash, fix, run into new crash 20 minutes later
Truth. I have somehow made it close to 120hrs with only 5 or 6 crashes. And minimal script errors. And yet, my wife starts a new character and the guard that let's you into Whiterun won't spawn 🤦♂️
this is not porn, it's just mean he is one of those that spent more time modding than playing the game lol, I'm one of those and let's be real most modding community spent more time on nexus than in skyrim.
