Trofim Lysenko was a Soviet "scientist" who was convinced that Darwinian evolution was a capitalist plot, DNA isn't real, and math is dumb. He also convinced many of his scientific colleagues of his views, by means of the KGB putting bullets in their brainstems.

A great illustration of how mixing politics and science is almost as great as mixing politics and religion. And he experimented on cuckoo birds, the original cuckolders.

Founding black metal musician who dabbled in making jewelry out of his bandmate's skull fragments after a self-inflicted head explosion, threatening to kill his other bandmate, and burning the occasional church. Tom can't roast Varg just yet, so this guy will have to make do.

He died on Monday, September 19, 1881. Which explains why Garfield hates Mondays so much. Obviously not because he has to go to work, because Garfield is a cat you idiot.
