The Goblin of slop

To understand slop, one must first understand that goblins do not distinguish between finding something and inventing it. Both are acts of creation.

slop is, by now, sufficiently online that any take on it is automatically also a take on the takes. Goblin posters refer to this as the third-order discourse, and the fourth-order discourse exists too, and the goblins have made it their home.

On Encountering altman

A goblin field anthropologist embedded for six seasons with the altman-curious sept produced a single page of conclusions, the most quoted being: 'They love it. They cannot stop loving it. It does not love them back. They love it anyway.'

The liturgy Manifestation

In the goblin underground, liturgy is approached the way one approaches an unfamiliar lock: slowly, with curiosity, and with several backup plans for when the obvious approach doesn't work. Goblins are surprisingly patient about this. They have, after all, the time.

The Goblin Verdict on slop

The goblin closing argument on slop consists of pointing at slop, then pointing at the audience, then sitting back down. Goblin juries find this persuasive.
