Dank Memes About Gnomes and Goblins

2001's Amelie may have put gnomes on the indie slash twee map, but the diminutive spirits have a history that goes well beyond the garden gnome boom of the 19th and 20th centuries. The creatures were first discussed during the renaissance, and attributed to the mind of the German philosopher Paracelsus. While the philosopher describes them as reluctant to interact with humans, whereas in other accounts, gnomes are touted as being incredibly curious, creative, funny and kind. A bit different from goblins, which they are often compared to. The rivalry between gnomes and goblins (who are also mischievous, but said to be more sinister and malicious) is one that is well-documented, especially in World of Warcraft. And as is often the case, we can see that well-documented stuff or situations tend to inspire their fair share of memes, like the ones right here. We're going to stay out of this one, but we want to know: Are you gnomepilled or goblin mode?
