Etymology
The term 'blobbing' seems to derive from the word 'blob,' which has its origins from the Middle English term 'blobbe', denoting a small, round mass. 'Blob' has evolved in its use, often describing amorphous shapes or masses in English literature. The informal verb form 'blobbing' developed much later, likely originating in the late 20th century, particularly in contexts involving playful or careless movement. As recreational water activities became popular, the term found new life in describing actions related to inflatable blobs used in lakes or pools. The playful nature of the term illustrates how language adapts to cultural trends and activities, merging traditional and contemporary usages.
