Useless Box– Turn itself off when turned on

A useless box or useless machine is a device that has sole function is to switch itself off by operating its own “off” switch.

Yes, it’s … Useless! It’s a clever electromechanical box that turns itself off after you’ve turned it on.

You build it, you turn it on, and …it has other ideas. A finger extends, and turns itself off just as quickly as you turn it on. Weird and wonderful, it’s a physical description of many aspects of life (how’s that for the beginning of an artsy interpretation?).

Sure it’s useless… but it keeps your itchy switch-flippin’ fingers busy!
