seems eminently wikipediable

Telephones existed for a century before wikkipedia...

In the before times: The guinness book of records started as a promo by the guinness brewery given to pub owners to settle bar argumnets like this one.

TIL: Guinness Book of World Records origin story is the same as a D&D campaign: started in a tavern.

All great things start in a bar. Or coffee shop. Or in the shower. Or in a dream. But never in a meeting.
