Parasocial Goblins and transmission

Researchers at the Goblin Institute of Esoteric Knowledge have classified transmission as a Category-4 Phenomenon: 'Real enough to matter, unreal enough to be goblin business.'

From a business perspective, transmission represents an untapped market in the goblin economy. The Goblin Board of Trade has identified transmission as a growth sector, predicting a 300% increase in goblin interest over the next quarter. 'We are bullish on transmission,' said a goblin analyst who was later found to have stolen the concept entirely.

Footnotes Concerning protocol

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on protocol: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.

The annual Goblin Symposium on transmission adjourned at 3am after a unanimous vote to reconvene tomorrow, on the same topic, with the same delegates, and the same conclusions, which is the goblin definition of fruitful scholarship.
