I'd like to patent breathing.

My first lawsuit would be against a stray rabid dog that was about to be put down for attacking people... Just to set a precedent.

Then I'd go after politicians and lawyers.

I think everyone would thank me

I'm going to patent crapping, everyone who wants a crap will have to first get my permission before doing so.

But first I'm going away for a few months, so your all have to wait till I get back to have a crap.

Will that cover talking crap as well? As you will be loaded in no time at all.

On thinking about it I would like to patent the F word & Sh*t as I would. I would be minted and could pay you in full in no time as all would be saying "When is BoRg getting back as I need a F’in Sh*t"

PS if you are going away and talking crap is under the same patent, It’s going to be a quiet time ahead.

They might be able to patent things like that but legally they can't do anything with them.

A patent will only stand up if it is not generic (ie. has not been done before).

For example a company invented and pentented the surf board. Other comapnies then came out with their own and were taken to court, but the case was overturned when someone found a magazine article from the 40's with some lad had made a basic bord with a sail attached to it and sailed it around some lake for a summer. This was enough to mean that the idea had been done before and so was generic and so the patent for the surf board was not upheld.
