I swear I'm not making this up

This is an actual, real sculpture in Germany, celebrating Albert Einstein. No photoshop, no nothing -- this is just reality.

Bloody Germans!

oh yes,

I've seen this. From 1948, 1949-ish. Einstein, at that point suffering from a massive tumor coming out his neck, was surprised when caught in the act of making out with a gigantic pockmarked snail. They wed the following year.

edt: it's a rather sweet story. i don't see why everybody has to make fun!!
