Doctor Edison Einstein Trifle is a fictional character in the book series Selby. Dr Trifle is an inventor. His nickname is Blinky, which is used in several stories. He is 1435 "Ups" (a unit of measure he invented) tall and weighs 34 "Grobs" (another unit of measure he invented).

Dr Trifle was born in Bogusville to the absent-minded inventors of "The Bouncing Shoe." When Dr Trifle was only one year old, his mother was teaching him the alphabet. When she got up to C young Dr Trifle said "A + B = C." According to Selby's Selection, "this mathematical equation is one of the most important ones ever discovered and had been used ever since". Dr Trifle is a genius but has problems tying his shoelace so he invented shoelace-tying machine. When he was using this machine in a supermarket, a woman (Mrs Trifle) bumped into him and they fell in love instantly.
