Tom Hanks Mode

What is Tom Hanks Mode?


1.

The condition of your character in a video game (such as Rainbox 6 or Call of Duty) where your character is blinded and/or stunned by a flashbang. This causes you to:

2. Hear a ringing in your ears

3. Have an image burned in your eyes

4. Have general disorientation and confusion

In addition to calling this experiece "Tom Hanks Mode" you may also refer to this as "getting Tom Hanksed".

Gamer 1: Dude, you didn't back me up!

Gamer 2: Sorry, man. I was in Tom Hanks Mode.

Gamer 1: You're just standing there, shoot someone!

Gamer 2: I just got Tom Hanksed, give me a break!
