  • The inventor of the first Rube Goldberg machine, Reuben "Rube" Lucius Goldberg, was actually in the beginning, a cartoonist, with a love for complexity. He created machines that do tasks that require a few seconds, but the machine itself to work required a few hours. Plus, the machines were one-time use and non-disposable and only geeks could reuse it. He was also a cartoonist (one who acts cartoonish) and started using such machines in his cartoons. People did not want to see {[<(Refer to image below)>]} a what-looks-like-a toast falling onto a spoon with a bowl of the same size with a thread held by Dr....Ahem...Butt connected by pipes (or dull grey metallic noodles) connected to a plate with a-wind direction-shower with two ends, on one of which sits a woodpecker, the other, some funnel vomiting onto a bucket the size of a mole, pulling a thread attached to a burning matchstick, and a rocket with an axe on its butt, with a thread in the middle holding a napkin, which, for no reason is dangling from a clock. All they wanna see is some frickin' cartoons to kill their time... However, after eating the Rube Goldburger (see addiction and pandemic), they started loving these machines, and started making them. It spread like wildfire, thus the invention of Rube Goldberg machines.
