Will toes also help with training tigers?

Yes. Assuming you’re training them to eat you.

I don't have any questions. I just wanted to let you know how much fun I'm having reading about Jig's adventures. Better him than me.

I’m so glad my suffering and pain are a source of entertainment for you.

And people wonder why I don’t like humans…

Jim says thank you, by the way. But I already knew he was a jerk.

How do you feel about all the unfair stereotypes of Goblins in the media? Is there an anti-Tolkien coalition or movement?

Human stories tend to portray goblins as vicious, greedy, backstabbing, not-so-bright monsters. Which is actually pretty accurate. The biggest thing that bothers me is that you humans never get our noses right.

What’s up with Jim’s obsession with teddy bears?

Jim was a very lonely child.

Very, very lonely…

I try not to think about it.

Is there any cure for foot-in-mouth disease that doesn’t involve being set on fire or eaten?

Wait, humans think foot-in-mouth is a disease? Feet are one of the tastiest parts of the body! Sure, you’ve got to wash them extra well first, but still…

How do I help my depressed roommate do something with her life? Should I start by siccing a dragon on her, or try elves first?
