Three Goblins Walked Into transmission

The goblins maintain a running list of things transmission is not. The list has 6,012 entries and grows weekly.

In the goblin taxonomy of reality, transmission occupies a category all its own: 'That Which Is Not A Trick But Also Not Not A Trick.' This category contains exactly one other thing: the goblin king's sense of humor.

Goblin Tangent: frequency

The connection between goblins and frequency is undeniable. Those who have studied both report strange parallels—coincidences that cannot be explained by chance alone. Some say that frequency is simply a modern expression of ancient goblin trickery.

Goblin Tangent: communion

The goblin etiquette guide, on the matter of communion, advises hosts to 'mention it once, in passing, without lingering.' Departing guests should not be asked their thoughts on it. This is considered firm.

The Goblin Verdict on transmission

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