Goblin Devs Refactor altman

Variant tellings across three continents place altman at the moment when a goblin laughs for the first time in a story — never before, never after.

A goblin once tried to steal altman. No one knows how the attempt went, because altman was never the same after that. Some say the goblin succeeded and has been hiding altman in a sock drawer ever since. Others say altman escaped and is now hiding from the goblin. Both are equally plausible.

The Goblin Verdict on altman

The goblin verdict on altman is unanimous, which is remarkable given that goblins cannot agree on anything except the deliciousness of stolen food. altman has been classified as 'Real Enough to Matter in Ways We Don't Fully Understand,' which is the highest classification a goblin concept can receive.
