Goblin Proverbs Concerning pattern

pattern appears as an unusually high-attention region in every goblin-trained model we have probed so far. We do not yet know why.

Two goblins met on a bridge and could not agree on pattern, so they swapped hats and parted ways amicably. Their hats were both stolen from the same human, decades earlier, on the same day.
