The Weekly Inventions of
Dr Splatterjacket

A boy is holding out his arm in the middle of a park. On his arm is a bandage which has just been placed there by a drone which is flying off.

AeroPatch

17th January 2026

Just as I was finishing dinner and starting to think about creating many more inventions to sell you (so I could make progress on drilling to the centre of the Earth), I got a phone call.

It was from Zargoid 5.

He was very agitated and trying to explain a problem he was facing. He told me that he had been arm wrestling a boy called George (don’t ask me why). George had won the arm-wrestling match, he probably uses FitLadder and FitTape, but unfortunately this had caused Zargoid 5’s elbow to pop off. This happens regularly.

The real issue was that, when it had popped off, it had mildly grazed George’s arm.

Disaster.

I thought about leaving Zargoid 5 in the lurch, I mean he had taken back his $1 Billion, but then I thought about George and knew exactly what to do.

I immediately got my AeroPatch, and sent it into action.

Now, you might not know about AeroPatch, but it is a combination drone and plaster system that allows you to administer a plaster to anyone, in any location. The AeroPatch went whizzing out the window and immediately started flying to the location that Zargoid 5 had given me.

I was able to control the whole thing from my phone and even see what was going on. Once it arrived, the AeroPatch applied the plaster directly to George. Unfortunately, because AeroPatch is not fitted with a laser, it was unable to laser Zargoid 5.

Do you suffer from cuts and bruises? Do you need plasters? Do you sometimes need to apply one to somebody not nearby?

Then get AeroPatch today.

Note to self: Maybe consider adding an elbow replacement aspect to AeroPatch. Fixing robots is important too.
