Chapter Two: The 2nd Type of Bad Inventor is the Lazy Inventor who tries to get everyone else to do his job for him. (Hint: By Completing ... in THE annotations. ) |
|
| |
Chapter three: The third type of bad inventor doesn't learn enough about greed and secrecy to keep their brain-children from being kidnapped and raised by Gypsies. |
|
| |
Chapter Four: The fourth type of bad inventor leaves his
wife and family after he hits it big. |
|
| |
Chapter Five: The fifth type of bad inventor lies and steals
novel ideas from other unknown good inventors passing
them off as his own. |
|
| |
Chapter Six: The sixth type of bad inventor refuses to believe the
conventional wisdom, and is convinced that, with a little care, it can
be done perfectly simply at a
fraction of the cost without the need for all that expensive high-quality
pressurised and temperature-controlled equipment, instead relying on
an old pressure cooker, a sugar thermometer,
an<KABOOOOMMMMmm> |

| |
The seventh type of bad inventor invents crap inventions, and manages to pass the blame onto other, innocent inventors |
|
| |
The eighth type of bad inventor can't count and
believes that math and physics were instituted by
the man simply to keep the really good inventions
down. |
|
| |
The inventor type in the ninth chapter is much like the eighth type, in that math and physics skills are lacking due to educational deficits in a system designed specifically to keep the inventive mind-set down, yet somehow still innovates despite the handicap, and deals almost entirely with the concept of Schadenfreude.
It's causes, and prevention. |

Chapter Ten: The tenth type of inventor, thwarted
and beset by utter bastards, realizes that his cancer-
cell-targetted therapy can be adapted to produce a
virus which spreads like the common cold in the
general population, but is lethal to one specific
individual. |
|
| |
Which brings us to chapter eleven: The Mad Scientist.
This chapter is a prime example of why we can't have nice things. |
|
| |
I'm not mad. I'm getting even. |
|
| |
Getting odd, seems to me. |
|
| |
This is a set-up for all bad inventors to start a list.[-] |

| |
The twelfth and last inventor is the Lazy Inventor who not even tries to get everyone else to do his job for him but gratefully accepts what others have done before him. His favourite sentence is of the dwarf standing of the shoulders of giants. From up there he can see the end of the book. |
|
| |
The 13th type of inventor elbows in after everything is finalised and insists his new inventions get equal consideration with the old, established, canonised ideas. |
|
| |
The 14th type of inventor isn't really an inventor at all but
instead some kind of performance artist with a personality
problem who uses the forum as a way to study the social
difficulty that drives innovation focusing on the
disability to invent things as a subject and who is
constantly adding stuff in after the fact that doesn't make
any
sense not only for no reason but also when
it seems improbably and perfectly unacceptable. |
