Ever think you've invented something only to be sorely dissapointed?

I keep doing it recently, completely unintentionally. I google it and find out it's already been done, normally better too.

So what have you invented?

Most recent ones that come to mind:

I invented slush puppie shots. I also invented a dating service for pets.

The internet. I googled it and found it had already been done

Try using an alternate search engine, they're mostly rubbish and you'll feel much better if you can't find a previous version of your invention!

I thought I made up the word "Revengence" once.

I was wrong.

Everything that can be invented, has been invented.

No, I really don't think so, unless you're one of these nuts who reckons that the world is going to end soon.

I've "invented" a few things, my area is pretty technical so it's usually quite specific. But a couple of things in Biometrics.

I invented a perpetual motion machine, but then someone from Opec visited me, explained that they owned the patent on it and burnt my house down
