Patents for sale? Heavens! |

Hmmm, ok.. so the patent is for a way to scroll up and down, a page at a time? Ok, let's patent: 1) The ability to page left and right. 2) The ability to scroll up and down (or left and right) in variable pre-defined amounts (which may or may not be 1 page worth) 3) FUD... wait... yes! Let's patent FUD, and then every time someone wants to talk unsubstantiated smack about something, they have to pay us royalties. *rubs greedy hands together* |

I own the greedy hand-rubbing patent. Pay me now. |

Quoting:Ok, let's patent: Why be so picky? Why not patent ability to page *at all*? |

tc: Well I own the payment patent... so, hand it over - and then pay me again because you paid me... etc. |

I've patented the patent process. Edit: Dang! I just realized I haven't paid myself for that one yet. |
