1. Epic fail.

That's the lamest explanation I've ever heard.

I suppose goon is a term of endearment if you think workers fighting for the right to organize should have the crap beaten out of them.

9. Not a term of endearment

goon |goōn|
noun informal
1 a silly, foolish, or eccentric person.
2 a bully or thug, esp. one hired to terrorize or do away with opposition : a squad of goons waving pistols.
ORIGIN mid 19th cent.: perhaps from dialect gooney [booby] ; influenced by the subhuman cartoon character ‘Alice the Goon,’ created by E. C. Segar (1894–1938), American cartoonist.
