Patent It!

This man goes along to the Patent Office with some of his new
designs. He says to the clerk, "I'd like to register my new
invention. It's a folding bottle."

"OK," says the clerk. "What do you call it?"

"A fottle!" replies the inventor.

"A fottle? That's a stupid name!" says the Patent Clerk. "Can't you
think of something else?"

"I'll think about it," says the inventor. "I've got something else
though. It's a folding carton."

"And what do you call that?" asks the clerk.

"A farton", replies the inventor.

"That's rude," notes the clerk. "You can't possibly call it that!"

"In that case," says the inventor, "you're really going to hate the
name of my folding bucket."
