So in the "mother fucker called me miss" thread the topic of what people claiming inventions (and a thread on this topic) arose
so does anyone have experience with people who claim this, or does anyone belive/did invent anything cool themselves?

my mom claims she invented nylon running shorts for a marathon in boston, i just play along but don't really believe her

yeah, my moms dad was a crazy guy, he claimed he invented all sorts of stuff (cell phones....)

But my old shop teacher DID invent a diesel(sp) engine that could run on french fry oil.

My dad knew a guitarist that claimed dave grohl stole one of his songs
he met a chick at a bar and he took her to his car to play some songs for her that he wrote, he had them on a cassette

the next day he couldnt find the cassette and a few months later the foo fighters released learn to fly. and I gotta say the song does sound a lot like his style.
