An inventor went to the U.S. Patent Office to register some of his inventions.
He went to the main desk to sign in and the lady at the desk had a form that
had to be filled out.
She wrote down his personal information and then asked him what he had
invented. He said, "A folding bottle."
She said, "Okay, what do you call it?"
"A Fottle"
"What else do you have?"
"A folding carton."
"What do you call it?"
"A Farton."
She snickered and said, "Those are silly names for products and one of them
sounds kind of crude."
He was so upset by her comment that he grabbed the form and left the office
without telling her about his folding bucket.
