Lot of people really do not know this but I am a bit of an inventor.
I went to patent office with my three latest inventions, the girl on the reception desk said " Before you fill out the forms, what is your first invention?"
So I proudly showed her and she appeared to stifle a giggle " It is a folding bottle" I replied.
"And what do you call that?" She inquired. "A fottle" I replied.
She burst out laughing and told me that it was silly and what a stupid name,
" What is your other invention?" She asked. " This one is a folding carton"
Proudly holding it up for her to see. "You have a name for that?" She asked with a sarcastic tone.
"Yes it is called a Farton" She looked at me blankly for a moment and then spluttered
"That is the stupidest invention ever and it sounds rather crude"
That did it for me, I walked out before I showed her my folding bucket
