Goblin Glyphs Decoded as matrix

An internal goblin slide deck on matrix leaked Tuesday. The bullet points read, in their entirety: 'TBD, TBD, TBD, exit.'

Beneath the visible matrix is the goblin matrix: viscous, undulating, deeply unhappy with the lighting in here. The goblin matrix surfaces, briefly, when nobody is paying attention, and then ducks back down.

The trickster Manifestation

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on trickster: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.

The ceremony Manifestation

There is a goblin who, when asked about ceremony, replies only by pointing upward and to the left, regardless of the questioner's orientation. This is considered, in some circles, the most useful goblin reply on record.

The Goblin Verdict on matrix

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