Not really a WWotD post, but…
OED has declared “goblin mode” as its ‘word’ of the year. And, because I spend zero time on TikTok, this article is honestly the first time I’ve even heard the expression, so it’s weird to me.
Goblin mode is a slang term for a way of behaving that intentionally and shamelessly gives in to and indulges in base habits and activities without regard for adhering to social norms or expectations.
The behaviors thought to constitute goblin mode vary from person to person, but it’s commonly associated with things like consuming “junky” food and media and disregarding one’s appearance and sometimes hygiene. Goblin mode is most often used to refer to a temporary state, such as one entered on weekends or after work, but this is not always the case.
