Full transcript of Character Duo Explainer (Vlog)
Hey Stewie, I found this weird old book. Is it a secret menu for McBurgertown? You simpleton. That is a replica of the Voynich Manuscript, the world's most mysterious medieval text. Voy-nich? Why can't anyone read it? It uses an unknown script. Cryptographers believe it is a substitution cipher, where hidden letters represent others. Ah, like when Lois writes the grocery list. But what are all these freaky plant drawings? Those are botanical illustrations. Scholars hypothesize it is a pharmacopoeia, a guide for experimental herbal medicines. Ooh, like those pills in Brian's glovebox! So, who wrote this thing? Was it aliens? No. Carbon dating places it to the fifteenth century, likely created by Italian alchemists hiding secrets. They used secret symbols to protect formulas from the prying eyes of the Holy Inquisition. Wait, did anyone ever crack the code? Even modern AI has failed. It might actually be a hoax sold to rich nobles. Heh, selling complete garbage to rich idiots? Count me in! Yes, you certainly have the 'complete garbage' part down, Peter. Hey! My pet rock business almost broke even! Regardless, the manuscript remains one of history's greatest unsolved puzzles. Subscribe for more crazy historical secrets, and maybe we'll decode Stewie's mind!
