'Goblin Mode' is a term used to define those who are unapologetic about being self-indulgent and lazy.
“Goblin mode” is a “a type of behaviour which is unapologetically self-indulgent, lazy, slovenly, or greedy, typically in a way that rejects social norms or expectations,” according to Oxford’s press release announcing the word of the year.
“Goblin Mode really does speak to the times and the zeitgeist, and it is certainly a 2022 expression,” said Ben Zimmer at the Oxford Word of the Year announcement, which was quoted in the . Zimmer is an American linguist, writer, and lexicographer—someone who compiles dictionaries. “People are looking at social norms in new ways. It gives people the license to ditch social norms and embrace new ones.”Oxford’s Word of the Year doesn’t have to be a word, per se, but it can be any word, expression, or series of words that have been popularized in 2022.
