Side note: Isaac Newton absolutely did not invent the car flap

He also invented the 2 car garage door but nobody needed such a thing.

But make a meme out of it, and sure as hell people will believe it.

You heard it here first, Isaac Newton invented car flaps

[–] chuckleslord 1 points 1 week ago

Sure he did. Just like he invented calculus. Someone else did all the work and now he's given the credit in the modern era without reason! /j

Wait . . . Isaac Newton invented the cat flap? They neglected to inform me of this in my edumacation.

No, he didn't, sorry! Just googled it myself. They've been around in some form since BCE
