South African English: Stoned, rendered slow and stupid, as by the action of marijuana. Out of it, disassociated, tranquillised. Disoriented-drunk.

e.g.
After I came drown from the peak of the DMT trip, I still felt quite goofed for half an hour.
I only got two hours sleep last night, and I’ve been feeling totally goofed all day.
You capetonian okes are all the same, constantly goofed on dope.

It is interesting that goof is/was American underworld slang for a marijuana user.

The word Goofed is usually pronounced with a shorter vowel sound than “Goof” meaning silly mistake. This makes it sound like the impact off a great padded fist knocking you silly, or a soft landing on a waterbed.
