I think he's referring to the original short story by Harlan Ellison.

I don't even know what that means in this context, but it sounds...inappropriate.

Fun fact: "kobold naive" is a google-whack in French and German. This ... means something.

A googlewhack is a combination of two, unquoted dictionary words that return exactly 1 result in google. I cheated by using a quoted two word phrase, though.

Still, you're the only person to have ever said "kobold naive" in an English context on that corner of the internet seen by Google. Congratulations.

That, and go the world, for being one in which "kobold naive" is not commonly needed.

You're too young to remember this from the theater, and it doesn't get a lot of play except at the occasional science fiction con. Don't be eating or drinking anything when you read it.

It's available to stream on Netflix. I know, because I watched it last week. Freakin' great movie, with a very young Don Johnson.

And, yeah I totally thought Coro was gay, for some reason. Funny how you read things, sometimes, I guess. I remmeber KaninZ, too, will have to look that up when I get home tonight.

I never thought Coro was gay. I never thought he would be that discriminatory.

Does that make the world "kobold naive"?

Let us hope so.

Though with so many SF&F fans out there, probably not enough.

Is there a space for Kobold Furries?
