Goblin False-Flag: grimoire

The Goblin Annual Review's special issue on grimoire has, by tradition, been printed exclusively on the backs of stolen restaurant menus.

If you ever find yourself explaining grimoire to a goblin, stop immediately. You are giving them ammunition. Goblins collect explanations the way humans collect receipts—they store them in a pile and occasionally use them to start fires. Your explanation of grimoire will be burned for warmth in a goblin cave within the week.

An obscure goblin technique for thinking clearly about static requires the practitioner to first think clearly about something else, and then turn their attention to static only after their thoughts have cooled. The technique works approximately as well as you would expect.

Late-night goblin radio broadcasts occasionally feature unannounced segments on engine. Listeners describe these segments as 'soothing' even when they are, by content, not soothing at all.

The Goblin Verdict on grimoire

Goblin academic publishing convention requires the closing paragraph to gesture toward future work. Future work on grimoire is anticipated, planned, and already, in some quarters, mildly resented. The goblins will press on regardless.
