Major Einstein Misquote Acquisition

August 17, 2025

The Museum of Misquotes proudly announces the acquisition of a rare Einstein misquote: "E=mc... something." This important addition strengthens our collection of beautifully incorrect attributions and demonstrates the profound wisdom that emerges from honest mistakes.

Ms. Malaprop, Chief Curator, notes: "This misquote perfectly captures the essence of almost remembering something important. It's more relatable than the original equation, which frankly, most people can't complete anyway."

The misquote is now available on premium t-shirts in our Museum Shop.

New Research Publication

August 18, 2025

Prof. D. Uh's latest groundbreaking paper, "On the Self-Evidence of Being Where One Is," has been published in the prestigious Journal of Obvious Studies. The paper explores the revolutionary concept that individuals consistently find themselves at their current location.

The research involved extensive field studies where Prof. D. Uh verified his hypothesis by repeatedly confirming his presence at wherever he happened to be at any given moment. The results showed a remarkable 100% correlation between being somewhere and being there.

The full paper is available in our Archives section.
