Today, my two partners here at Bell Labs, (Walter Brattain and John Bardeen) created the first transistor. Without me. I am unhappy about this. They should have waited for me to tell them what to do! What were they thinking? They were going to just invent it without me! I think that they are aware of the fact that I'm more intelligent than they are, so they just had to invent it before I returned! I worked just as well, and just as long as they did, but they think they should get all the credit! I'm going to go talk to Mervin Kelly right now! I'm going to explain the truth. I will inform him him that I co-invented the transistor! I'm THEIR BOSS! THEY CANNOT JUST INVENT IT WITHOUT ME!!!

| Me after co-inventing the transistor |
It doesn’t matter, I'm going to make a transistor that’s superior to theirs! it’s going to be incredible It'll be so simple they’ll wish that they thought of it. But they didn’t! I did! My new transistor is going to be an improvement on theirs for sure! And then, nobody will care that they made the first transistor, because mine will be so wonderful compared to theirs that everyone will look at mine and say “Wow! Bill is so intelligent! Much more than those two men over there” and it’ll be fantastic! It’ll have a piece of germanium, that lacks electrons, sandwiched by two pieces of germanium with excess electrons, so that a current can run through the transistor easily! It’ll be a germanium sandwich! A wonderful germanium sandwich that is a gigantic improvement on John and Walter’s golden prongy transistor! Which, by the way, is not an intelligent choice at all! What happens when the prong touches the water?! It stops working, which is the most useless thing it could possibly do. My transistor will be a sandwich that doesn't need any water, or sealing wax or prongs! It’s going to be made out of Germanium (and other materials), and be much more functional than theirs ever could be! Alright, I'm going to get to work on my new transistor.
