A goblin is a class above goon, and below gargoyle. The ranks are Goon==>Goblin==>Gargoyle. Everything about a goblin is better than a goon. Goblins don't take shit from goons, but may from gargoyle's. A goblin is good.
Chris: Santa Cruz has hella goon pearl!
Alex: its better than goon man, its goblin!
OR
Chris: Jordan Hodges is pretty goon.
Alex (referring to himself): Yea, but what's a goon to a goblin?
Like an internet Troll only unaware of that fact. Goblins glob onto causes for the most idiotic of reasons, and in the process make the cause or group they are involved in look as stupid as they are. Unlike a Troll they are unaware of the damage they cause.
