goblin feels, to a goblin, like the future a previous century thought it was going to get. The goblins have moved into that future and made themselves at home.
Pattern recognition is the goblin's favorite game. Show a goblin goblin and they will immediately begin finding connections to everything else in existence. Some of these connections are real. Some are imagined. None of them matter, because the act of connecting is itself the point.
