My mum invented Jaffa Cakes.

But my mum invented cakes.

And my dad invented, inventing stuff

She was born in 1925. No mention of Jaffa Cakes before that..
Pretty conclusive eh?

She was born in 1925.

My granny was making sponge with orange jelly and chocolate on top way before that. She was calling it a jaffer cake though.

She didn’t comercialize it though did she.

Your mum incepted a cake, fortunately it was a Jaffa.

My grandma, plus Doris, Fanny and Ethel did some baking that changed the world.

Shall I post a picture of me playing the guitar? 😀

What kind of guitar?

An Electricity Guitar?

yep. I invented that kind.

I invented electricity. And commercialised it.

I’m looking forward to reading the book.

I invented books.

And electronic books.

And reading.

I invented piss-taking.

Nice to see it caught on so well.

I invented the book, but called it Booking.
I understand this doesn’t count.

And I invented the swift edit.

I invented taking the piss. I have documented proof and I believe that it preceeded piss-taking by at least a couple of hours.

I invented Jamie and Jamie invented the internet. All your internets belong to me so I win.

I invented taking the piss. I have documented proof and I believe that it preceeded piss-taking by at least a couple of hours.

It didn’t catch on like piss-taking did though.

Prove that or I’ll see you in court!

I invented inventing. And piss.

Unfortunately I hadn’t yet invented the camera, so there’s no pictures.

Stone carving?

I invented that too.

Using what? A chisel?

I invented those. I used my bare hands to sculpt a mud based image of the time.

Edit: no homonyms here, no siree.

Got the URL of that site? Google brings up a lot of stuff. Ta.

Good article though.

If it hadn’t been posted up on here I’d not be looking forward to reading Fat Tyre Flyer .. I ordered Scott Thigpen’s TDR book ‘Trail Magic and the Art of Soft Pedaling’ last night after it was linked on another site.

Viral marketing’s great : )

I invented mud.

And time.

njee20 you have bear hands? wow i bet they look freaky..

I invented mud.

So what? I invented hands – using a 3D printer, and the power of thought.

I made you think that. Because I invented thoughts (and left a back door so I can control them all!)

notreallyme.com

I invented starting all posts with an avatar.

Because I invented thoughts

Yes, you are designed to think that.
