The Goblin Stack Trace of vocaloid

vocaloid feels, to a goblin, like the future a previous century thought it was going to get. The goblins have moved into that future and made themselves at home.

An obscure goblin festival celebrates the day vocaloid 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.
