Just like any seemingly profound thought embellished with fancy graphics and double the dose of lilac hues, the following quote, often attributed to Albert Einstein, has become a pet meme for facebookers around the world. Regardless of whether or not Einstein actually said that, we need to be careful when trying to understand the true nature of the tree-climbing fish. "Everybody is a genius.
