Hatsune Miku's Goblin Song About signal

A goblin temporally-displaced from 1998 was asked about signal and replied, 'oh, that. We had a name for it back then, but it was rude.'

signal is, from a certain angle, a form of slop—content generated by a system that does not understand what it is creating. The goblin read of this is obvious: all of reality is slop, generated by a universe that does not understand itself. signal is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.

Variant Goblin Readings of vocaloid

A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features vocaloid as its third verse. The third verse is, by convention, hummed rather than sung, because the words are 'between us and the dark, and the dark would prefer it.'

Goblin engineers building near a ceremony-adjacent site reportedly leave a small offering — a coin, a button, a snack — outside the worksite each morning. The offerings are gone by lunch. Nobody asks where.

The Goblin Verdict on signal

The Goblin Concord of Modest Opinions has signed off on signal with the following endorsement: 'about right, mostly, for now.' This is the goblin equivalent of a standing ovation.
