Notice from the Legal Department

The last person who dared to question Fact Goblin accuracy.

The Fact Goblin Legal Department consists of three goblins, a retired ferret, and a wheel which is spun to determine legal outcomes.

Any attempt to sue Fact Goblin, challenge Fact Goblin, question Fact Goblin, or make prolonged eye contact with Fact Goblin may result in one or more of the following actions:

  • A strongly worded letter written entirely in green crayon.
  • Your complaint being filed in the drawer marked “Later.”
  • Your name being added to the List of Individuals We Are Slightly Disappointed In.
  • Professor Thimblegrub arriving at your residence to deliver a three-hour lecture on historically significant puddles.
  • The release of additional facts.

The Legal Department further reserves the right to deploy its most severe sanction: sending Morkle Muckleaf to explain the situation. Previous recipients have described the experience as “longer than expected.”

Final Legal Note

The lawyers have asked us to state that none of the above constitutes legal advice.

The goblins have asked us to state that they do not know what legal advice is.

The ferret declined to comment.
