Silly Syclopedia

Silly Syclopedia

by Noah Lott

This book presents itself as a satirical encyclopedia, packed with intentionally incorrect and nonsensical information, fabricated etymologies, and a barrage of unhelpful yet amusing trivia. It's a playful skewering of the conventions of traditional reference works, designed to entertain with its absurdity.
