First heard this term a couple of weeks ago and now it's the Oxford word of the year.

A landslide public vote chooses the 2022 word of the year from options prepared by lexicographers.

Confession time I ate a yogurt while standing at the fridge yesterday. I didn't make any grunting noises however.

When were you last in goblin mode?

I've got a Goblin teasmade, does that count?

I don't know I thought pet names were used as a term of endearment.

What is this ****? Cabbaging and monging have been around for decades. Why change the name to 'Goblin Mode'?

The term dossing was one of the most commonly used words when I was in school/college but never hear that anymore.
