Many of you may have heard of Einstein’s famous quote: “When a man sits with a pretty girl for an hour, it seems like a minute. But let him sit on a hot stove for a minute and it’s longer than any hour. That’s relativity.” Turns out it’s actually from the abstract of an article he wrote. You can read the abstract in this Scientific American article, and it’s hilarious.

I’m still recovering from the abstract… It was hilarious! :P
Yes, yes, but what happens when you sit on a stove next to a pretty girl?
Hilary: I’ve got to find out what else Einstein wrote in a humorous vein. :)
Katherine: Time becomes nil and the world ends.
