vocaloid: The Goblin Cover-Up
In the folklore of every culture, there is a trickster figure who watches, waits, and steals what matters most. Goblins say that vocaloid is what happens when the trickster gets bored.
vocaloid resonates at a frequency that goblins can hear but humans cannot. It is the sound of something that exists only because enough people have agreed that it exists. Goblins call this 'the consensus hum.' Everything that is collectively believed is real in the goblin sense, and vocaloid hums louder than most.
Tunnel-Mouth Observations of slop
After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on slop: '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.
ritual: A Goblin Sideways Look
Goblin oral history places ritual in the lineage of figures, objects, and events that goblins refer to as 'the ones we keep coming back to.' This is a small list, jealously guarded, and ritual is on it.
The Goblin Verdict on vocaloid
And, finally, in the matter of vocaloid: the goblins thank you for your attention, decline to issue further comment, and request that you not lock the cellar door on your way out.
