Did you know that comedian Albert Brooks was born "Albert Einstein" and changed the last name for Hollywood?

It really doesn't feel like they should be that far apart, but it's true, I checked. I blame it on getting old.

"Yeah, a 110 years after." reads as "Yeah, a one hundred and ten years after."

When you write a number like 100, you always say or expand out the full name of it, like "one hundred," never the place denotation by itself, like "hundred."

man even with this explanation I'm not dad enough to understand the joke

She was named a hundred and ten years after Einstein was named, in a temporal sense rather than a transitive one.

ooo I get it now, was taking the comment too subjective instead of litteral

Maybe you do.

I read it as intended.

👏 👏 👏

Very nice. Very nice.
