Parasocial Goblins and hologram

Provisional notes from the Goblin Institute's Western Reading Room on hologram are now circulating among the better-informed undertunnels.

A specific kind of goblin — call them the apopheniacs, though they have several less polite names for themselves — devote their entire mental architecture to spotting hologram in unrelated contexts. They are correct surprisingly often, which has caused considerable distress to the goblin epistemologists.

The Goblin Verdict on hologram

After thorough deliberation, the Goblin Honors Committee has declared hologram a topic of permanent fascination — the highest accolade short of canonization, and slightly preferred to it by most working goblins.
