It was in the year 3054 that humanity discovered Life was, in fact, a really large perpetual motion office toy. That was God's original intention. Somewhere along the way, he got distracted by the primordial details and decided to pimp it out. posted by lemuring at 3:19 AM on April 1, 2011
What the heck is that first link? posted by solarion at 3:28 AM on April 1, 2011
What the heck is that first link?
I'm glad you brought that up. I get this question a lot when making Metafilter posts. In this case, I can tell you that the first link has to do with the connection between your astrological sign - Capricorn, Aries, Pisces, Sagittarius, and so on - and the benefits that accrue from meditating on the corresponding perpetual motion device.
It's comforting to me to explain my links, because that way we can all agree on the sensibility of the thing I posted. posted by twoleftfeet at 3:42 AM on April 1, 2011 [4 favorites]

I'm not sure it was meant to be taken seriously... Myself, I enjoyed the little robot hands, and the water-fall illusion. Perfect links for today! The others, not so much. posted by TheMidnightHobo at 6:27 AM on April 1, 2011
