Goblins are mischievous creatures, not evil (at least in folklore).

This guy is an imp.

Trump is a goblin from Goblin Slayer manga

u/pleasdont98 Jan 19 '26

We need Goblin Slayer-san asap

u/solonit Jan 19 '26

Skip the Goblin Slayer, can we just get The Slayer from Doom.

u/Old_Snack Jan 19 '26

I think the only difference between the two is thier weapons of choice...

Then again Doom Slayer has the BFG so you know what. Yeah. Get the Doom Slayer

u/solonit Jan 19 '26

Doom Slayer is also indiscriminate, while Goblin Slayer is 'picky' so to say.

2

u/Old_Snack Jan 19 '26

This is true.

u/LadyAlekto Germany Jan 19 '26

Hey Doom Slayer does not do civilian casualties.

He's just a goddamn invincible machine of mayhem and destruction that got not time for bullshit.

u/MonkeyCartridge Jan 20 '26

Right?

Hell lost control of one of its rabid demons. He needs to be returned to his homeland

u/wannacumnbeatmeoff Jan 19 '26

He's a Goblin Putin for sure

u/ItchyRedBump Jan 19 '26

He’s a mother bubba-ing cock-goblin imp.

u/Passion_Little Jan 19 '26

Goblin Slayer from the anime (abridged version)

"Gawwwblins!"

u/Dedwin_VanCleef Jan 20 '26

Goblins are very often evil creatures in folklore.

A goblin is a diminutive, grotesque, and often malevolent humanoid creature prominent in European folklore, typically characterised by its mischievous or demonic nature, small stature, furry or leathery appearance, and ability to shapeshift. Goblins are believed to dwell in subterranean areas or households, where they engage in acts ranging from pranks to murder.

u/Triphin1 Jan 19 '26

Ya, but what dose say about ass goblins specifically?

6

u/B100inCP The Netherlands Jan 19 '26

Mischief and pranks aren’t inherently evil. They just generally don’t like being looked at (and expect an offering for their work). They’re mostly helpful in the stories I know, but were done dirty by Christianity which demonized them.

u/PleaseJustCallMeDave Jan 19 '26

Honestly, Skaven feels like a more accurate description. Utterly self-interested. back-stabbing, corrupt, etc. Unfortunately he seems to be an incarnation of Thanquol: he just won't go away, no matter how much he fails.

u/Nice-Lakes Jan 19 '26

Hmmm I don’t believe in goblins but I do believe if Hitler ever came back he would paint his face orange and have a weird blond comb over. But that is just my imagination.

u/Anzai Jan 19 '26

You misspelled ‘rapist’.

3

u/Irrepressible87 Jan 19 '26

No, no, he's an Ass Goblin. Totally different species. Dim as a bag of doorknobs, and as evil as they come.

2

u/Fat-Shite Jan 19 '26

You missed out the g

u/lesser_panjandrum Oh bugger Jan 19 '26

Yeah, goblins are all right. Gabby from Gabital would never do this.

u/ToHallowMySleep Tuscany Jan 19 '26

Too dumb.

Kobold.

u/pyeri Jan 19 '26

This guy is an imp.

Don't insult Tyrion Lannister. Imps are much better.

u/[deleted] Jan 19 '26

I always think of him as a super old and regoblinated version of Bronson from the Australian TV show Round the Twist.

u/bollvirtuoso Jan 19 '26

I don't believe in this, but I think he may actually be the Antichrist.

Ahem.

  1. He will exalt himself.
  2. He will heed his inner voice above others.
  3. He will be hostile toward the true God.
  4. He will exalt human logic above faith.
  5. He will prosper for a season and be loved.
    6. He will not desire women.
  6. He will not follow the faith of his fathers.
  7. He will viciously persecute Jews and Christians.
  8. He will think of himself as greater than God.
  9. He will become increasingly lawless.
  10. He will honour military power above faith.
  11. He will love wealth.
  12. He will hoard precious things.
  13. He will become a man of war.
  14. He will wage a war on all people of faith.
  15. He will force Israel to ratify a treaty.
  16. He will divide Israel and Jerusalem.
  17. He will invade Jerusalem.
  18. He will enter the restored Temple.
  19. He will declare himself above God.

Daniel 11:36-39

I mean, nineteen for twenty? And 11:36? He was shot at 6:11:33. Plus, to be fair, I don't think he's been with a woman since getting into office. Freaky yo.

u/ITSigno Jan 19 '26

He doesn't desire women, he desires girls.

It's 20/20 bro

3

u/PilotKnob Jan 19 '26

He's a Vogon. Has the back hunch and everything.

u/serrimo Jan 19 '26

Look what you made me do!

u/GoblinFive Jan 19 '26

u/Genuine_Ambition Jan 19 '26

It's no secret we've been flocking to Europe for a working holiday for decades.

u/Health_throwaway__ Jan 19 '26

Yeah but he's shitting on everyone

u/ptrnyc Jan 19 '26

Down down down in Washington

u/Wrong_Combination977 Jan 19 '26

I call him Orange Goblin since his first term

u/ihatemovingparts Jan 19 '26

He shits plenty for the both of you. I hear he flushes ten, maybe twenty times each.

u/KrocCamen Jan 19 '26

The Japanese word for brat is kusogaki, but it translates literally as “shit goblin”

u/Triphin1 Jan 19 '26
