unsubcultured museum relics from back in the day... the ENCYCLOPEDIA

Hey kids, do you know what these books are?



No they arent called WIKIPEDIA. They're called ENCYCLOPEDIA. Every home used to have volumes of them back in the day. It's where kids got info for term papers and shit like that.

Today, all you have to do is go to Google and of course, Wikipedia.

Ironically, here's the WIKIPEDIA definition of the dinosaur called the ENCYCLOPEDIA

An encyclopedia (also spelled encyclopaedia or encyclopædia) is a type of reference work, a compendium holding information from either all branches of knowledge or a particular branch of knowledge.[1]

Encyclopedias are divided into articles. The articles in an encyclopedia are usually accessed alphabetically by article name (or sometimes by theme). Unlike dictionary entries which are about the often many linguistic, etymological and usage aspects of their entry's word or term, each encyclopedia article's subject is a single concept that is referred to by the article name.
