Tome of Incomprehensible Clarity, The
(From an interview with the Author after publication)
This, meaning the item in question, is a tome, by which I mean a book or similar collection of information preserved by the actions of ink or similar materials upon paper, papyrus, leather or some other flexible material porous to the actions of ink or similar materials, which contains, by which I mean it encompasses and includes or expounds upon, very, by which I mean highly, extremely or possibly excessively, accurate, by which I mean correct in every verifiable, which is to say reproducible manner, definitions, by which I mean an explaination or exposition describing an item in its entirety, of words, by which I mean collections of thought-symbols (memes) arranged so as to be interpreted by the linguistic centers of the human (or otherwise) brain, which are so precise, which is to say they lack no accuracy, that they are correct to a degree verifiable by experiement and observation, that they are essentially useless, by which I mean that the entire book does not serve the purpose for which it was intended, which is to eliminate ambiguity.
It is also notable as being the only book in existence to be made up exclusively of footnotes and appendices. Appendix LVII onwards was omitted from the print run on the grounds that resultant gravity well caused small bodies to orbit it and bent rays of light from distant objects.
This book recieved the covetted Cheese Fork Payment Medal from Fromlem's Guide.
