Goblin mode is described as a way of life that gives people permission to ditch societal norms and embrace their basic instincts. Oxford English Dictionary defines goblin mode, a slang term, as “a type of behavior which is unapologetically self-indulgent, lazy, slovenly, or greedy, typically in a way that rejects social norms or expectations.” It's most often used in a sentence as "in goblin mode" or "to go goblin mode." The relatability of "goblin mode" shows how much COVID-19 has shaped culture over the past two years, according to Oxford Languages president Casper Grathwohl.
