Posted by You’ve heard it said before. “Millennials ruin everything. Blah, blah, blah … ”
Well, a contingent of worried librarians have truly taken this to heart. They recently started a movement to save the collective books and brains of future generations by infusing their precious pages with the most unlikely of technologies. You won’t get screen fatigue from these scintillating suckers!
By teaming up with microbiologists specializing in the ol’ olfactory sciences, they have successfully created the world’s first scratch-and-sniff encyclopedia. And encyclopedia sales immediately jumped 8,000%, leading to the greatest advancement in book technology since the invention of, well … books!
Dr. Wilfred Bjornin Bjorger, the leading technologist of this newly patented process of sniffing sciences is on record saying the most challenging part was not creating the individual musks, so much as finding a way to cleanse the nasal pallet between aromatic huffs. Ultimately, they imbued the vast pages of their tangy tome with a simplistic concoction of zested water chestnut roasted in sulfuric lime ash. A recipe they reportedly found on the internet after watching some woefully under-informed videos about how to make Tabouli.
Thanks to modern science and zealous librarians, you no longer have to walk down to your local zoo to be able to catch a faint whisp of elephant dung hanging in the breeze. You can sniff burnt hair of up to 13 different species all from the safety and comfort of your living room. And best of all, you won’t ever need an air-freshener in your car again if you bring this encyclopedia for a ride-along!
