Reading Diary Week 4 – Twenty-Two Goblins
- Background info on what a goblin is defined as in this tale was really helpful
- These names are great.
- Homage by fruit? Do they stay in the treasure trove and rot?
- I hate monkeys
- Hah! You never throw away seemingly useless gifts in fairytales
- Wow, honorable king
- Sounds like sound reasoning to me
- Is the fig tree where all the fruit comes from
- Because kings and royalty can totally sneak with no one noticing
- Wait, you agree with that little info? Really? No questions as to why the monk needs a hung corpse?
- Kay, creepy Goblin
- Wait, he wants to hang in the tree? Really?
- Beauty is never a good thing, honestly, worst gift ever
- Whoops
- Ewww! He slept in her ashes?
- Wait, what? How is burning a child appropriate punishment?
- I don’t care if you can resurrect him – that’s still despicable!
- Because you don’t need any TRAINING with this, huh? Oh no, I can just figure this out on my own.
- Made of gold? Crap, that can’t end well
- Seriously? Gosh you men are so petty
- Wait, so a lover ought to sleep with ashes and corpses like a zombie? Ugh, I’m having second thoughts about reading this one.
- What? You’re stubborn and sexy, so I’m gonna give you another riddle. What are these people on?
- Oh no, Moonlight is going to have a hard time
- Uh-oh, she’s a brat too. Never a good omen
- This sounds like Aladdin – you’ve got a magic carpet? Yes – this one gets my daughter, everyone else go home!
- Uh-oh, three husbands all in one day. Moonlight’s going to be busy
- Fight for her!
- Oh, quest. Okay then
- That was the most understated fight I have ever heard
- Does she get to choose? Oh, of course not, she gets to set the standards but nothing else
- Will his head really split into a hundred pieces, or is that just a convenient way to get out his grasp?
- ??? Goblin is racking up the sarcasm methinks
- Yay people. Pilgrimage to bathe? Weird
- Haha, Spotless had White – clever
- Yo idiot, chill and eat, I got this. - Thanks Daddy, I love you! And I love food!
- Unannounced, unplanned trip to a goddess? Yeah, bad idea
- Idea? Oh no
- OH
- NO
- BAD IDEA
- WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?
- GOD ACHILLES*, YOU ARE NOT HELPING!!!
- Oh don’t do that too! Why don’t you go become queen of the Amazons or something? A man does not define you!
- So many issues with this story
- Oh finally, a woman with sense.
- Goodness? Good to kill yourself because your men died? REALLY?
- How do you make that kind of mistake? Did they look that similar? If so, ewwww.
- EW EW EW EW!!! NOT ARKANSAW NO THANK YOU YUCK!!!
- My stories make you tired because you have to run back, so let me tell you another to help wake you up! This Goblin’s a sadist
- Is everyone a Brahman in this? Good grief
- Turtle!
- Oh, I’m too good for this crap – I’m eldest, do what I say!
- Wait, is the eldest not going to go to hell too?
- I am a food connoisseur – I can’t touch a turtle!
- Same argument for women and cotton? Really?
- You’re gonna lose the turtle
- They really had to go to the king for this?
- Isn’t that an insult, not eating the food given by a king?
- Pleased? Who cares! It’s food and tastes good – you eat
- Oh, she smells like a goat! I can’t take it! Take her away I’m gonna die!
- These kids are wimps
- Wait, why does it matter if she drank goats milk?
- Okay then, precious princess Pea
- God, these men are the wimpiest men. How are they praised for this?
- Haha, they’re cursed because they forgot the turtle. Turtle curse!
- Cotton? Okay, fair enough
- What dreadful creatures? I thought it was just the goblin
- Hah, Lotus eater city
- Oh no, don’t accept a daughter prettier than nymphs of heaven – always bad
- Oh no, definitely bad to be prettier than the god of love
- No, no one is good enough for my perfect princess!
- I want a man of science – yeah but – SCIENCE!
- Why is your name Linguist if – oh, that’s why
- Oh, don’t marry the necromancer. Bad idea. Why do necromancers not have a bad stigma in these tales?
- She needs to go to a REAL man – duh!
- Oh yeah, because truly resolute heroes never get discouraged. Right.
- Yep, Goblin is totally just trolling him now
- My enemies dead? I’d be content too
- Love Love Love- sounds like a 60’s song
- Wait – she got taken out by a flower petal?
- Hah, he’s got a vampire for a wife
- How pathetic are these ladies? Is this supposed to be desirable? Really?
- Is this a curse? No? Wow, totally not worth it. Get better wives
- Happy women = happy home
- Seriously, just get it wrong so you don’t have to fetch him again, I doubt the goblin can tell
- Oh my god we get it – pretty women, can we move on please?
- She’s prime kidnap material – oh silly girl, playing hide and seek!
- Crying all night isn’t going to help
- Can any of these people handle life on their own? God, get over it
- I’m going to find her by being spiritual enough to see her – yeah, that makes sense
- I’m summer, rawr
- Everything is sad because he is sad
- I can feed him because he’s holy – wow, shallow much?
- This is a complicated set of events
- Is pilgrimage just what you do when life sucks?
- Death couldn’t decide? Really?
- Huh, didn’t expect that – good answer, king
- Dangit, stupid Goblin stop running
- These names are great
- Good for you girl
- Sneaky man = thief
- What?
- Yeah, how could you not see that was a trap
- Wait, elephants? Where did they come from?
- Berserker can’t stand up to science, apparently
- Wait, that sounds as stupid as Juliet
- Oh wow, that’s a great answer – go girl
- Oh he’s alive again, Imma make him a general – odd ending
- I’m pretty sure laughing and crying at the same time is due to hysteria
- No, just gag that stupid goblin already
- … what? How does that make sense?
- Wow, way to butter up there buddy
- Because that sounds like such a good idea
- How can it be virtuous if by coming out she shows she isn’t virtuous?
- Wow, a king who can say no – I am majorly impressed
- Actions of devoted men are blameless? Right, try that again when applied to Crusaders and Nazis.
- Maybe he got bored of her, idk
- Oh, that’s only to be expected due to his station – the king has no such limitations and so is better
- This guy’s incorrigible – story time!
- Hah, lousy kids get out of my house! Lazy children
- Dead people are happy, but I got saved, darn
- Wow, that’s a circular argument
- How is setting yourself on fire any better?
- Zombies – BAD does no one get this?
- Does no one think in these tales?
- No, I’m pretty sure they died just because they were stupid
- Why do you have to point out the curse again?
- Lemme try this one more time – your flowery speech isn’t fooling any one
- Of course the man’s near-perfect
- More perfect people, yay boring
- I thought you were supposed to burn it
- Uh, eaten by jackles sounds bad to be
- It’s called mourning, jerks
- That’s the best description of veins I’ve ever heard
- Go away old man!
- Wait, why did he do that? Cuz the kid was rude?
- He’s got to go through puberty again – that has to suck
- Pretty sure that wasn’t the reason – immortality is a good motivator
- Why is the king not dismayed? Is he just that cocky?
- Ugh, you haven’t given up yet? Okay, last try!
- Of course he was the best of the best – not one person hasn’t been in these tales
- Oh look, evil people! What a rarity!
- Robber-men who killed and robbed – like we couldn’t figure that out ourselves
- That’s a nice name – wait not nice dude
- Okay, that might be my new favorite rhyme
- Because robbers can’t be well dressed
- Ok, delicacy of these women is getting ridiculous
- I don’t know, be a window queen and rule with an iron fist?
- Well, that was a surprise.
- Because the king is stumped, the Goblin is going to give his power to the king, and not the monk. Okay….
- Oh, monk is bad, okay then
- Why didn’t he just grab any old corpse and summon the goblin into it like he is now? Why go through all that trouble?
- EW – WORSHIP NOT WANTED
- Oh look, Jareth origin story
- Hear a puzzle-story, get free from sin – could come in handy
- What the crap did I just read?
- Thank God it’s over
