What the actual fuck is this article, lmfao. They act like they've cracked the code of what a "gooner" is, and likened it to this almost religious state of being. It's slang for someone who unapologetically gives their time and energy to one of more targets of their sexual fantasy. That's it. They're not trying to ascend to a state of goonvana, or whatever the fuck this article is trying to paint it as. It's literally just a culturally accepted way of referencing obsession with sexual fantasy.
So fucking weird, dude.
