This is a question Claims to Fame

Rob writes, "My photoshop claim to fame: the way the crop tool greys out the rest of the image? That was my idea. I sent it to the Abobe features request thing back in ooh probably about 1998. (After spending a frustrating day cropping images for a dull
website, and wishing the tool worked better.)"

What crappy claims to fame can you make?

I invented something when I was 7.
There is a device for violins (and other stringed instruments) called a Dampit, which is used to humidify your instrument in cold/dry weather.
I've been playing violin since I was 5, and at age 7, i wondered aloud why there weren't Dampits for runt-sized violins like mine. So my parents contacted the inventor of the original thing, who thought it was a great idea. So we met, he started making Little Dampits, and I got to make the logo.
proof of my seven year old ingeniousness can be seen here.

Depressingly, I haven't invented anything (that got built, anyway) in the 16 years since.
