Goofy is a long-running Disney cartoon character known for his clumsy humour, distinctive laugh and good-natured blundering, which is why short clips of his voice travel so well outside full cartoons. On soundboards and social video, this kind of clip is reused as a quick reaction, a comic punctuation mark after a fail, or a way to signal that a moment should not be taken seriously. Because the voice is instantly recognisable and the humour is broad and family-friendly, creators keep returning to it for light, shareable edits.
