    in an atlas you get the "dictionary definition" of thing. When you come on here you get answers from real people that have real experiences. Also you cant find beuty or b/f g/f tips in an atlas

    Maybe they don't know what an atlas is..they are under the mistaken assumption that it gives definitions.
