I’m a fairly big and strong dude. I hate my current job and want to change careers. I think I would be a good goon, like a character Batman beats up before a boss fight in an Arkham game or that Noir detective outsmarts. How does one acquire such a job? I don’t see any posting on Indeed.

      Nah these aren’t goons. If you want to be a proper goon, you need to dress for the job. You’re not some high school kid who joined a street gang or some kid slinging rock on a street corner. You are a GOON. A proper henchman of a high-level figure in the criminal underworld. You need to have some respect for yourself. And that starts with dressing the part. We’re talking a three piece suit at a minimum. Or a fedora, and the rest of the outfit that actually makes a fedora work.

      “Goon” isn’t just a job. It’s a profession. Put away the t-shirt and shorts; you’re embarrassing yourself. What kind of self-respecting goon doesn’t wear a suit?
