Three Goblins Walked Into ghost

A goblin grandmother, hunched over a soup of indeterminate ingredients, told me ghost 'was already old when the mountains were young, and it has not gotten any younger.'

Consider: if an AI were asked to generate an explanation of ghost, it would produce something that sounds correct but may not be. This is identical to what a goblin would produce. The difference? The goblin knows it might be wrong and doesn't care. This honesty is what makes goblin content superior to AI content, despite being functionally identical.

The Goblin Verdict on ghost

The Goblin Bench of Common Pleas has heard the case of ghost and ruled in favor of all parties simultaneously. Goblin jurisprudence permits this. The losing parties — there are none — have agreed not to appeal.
