Sigma Goblins React to synthesized
A goblin temporally-displaced from 1998 was asked about synthesized and replied, 'oh, that. We had a name for it back then, but it was rude.'
An obscure goblin festival celebrates the day synthesized was first noticed by the goblin community at large. Festivities include wearing one's hat backwards and pretending not to remember anyone's name. The festival lasts exactly as long as participants can stand it.
