i used to work for this guy that was, to be sure, a cranky bastard. but he had been doing physical labor his whole life.

probably his chief gripe was people who thought having an idea like this was valuable. a plan, a design, etc were valuable, but this? no.

like, just throwing out "why not a battery but it never runs out" type of shit.

it would come up as him seeing something like this and saying sardonically, "there's no shortage of ideas in this world/from these people."
