Pointless device with character

**What Happened:** One day, I stumbled upon a so-called “useless machine” at a garage sale. Its sole function was to flip a switch to turn itself off, accompanied by a dramatic mechanical sigh. Intrigued, I brought it home, only to discover it had developed a quirky personality—whenever I tried to turn it on, it would groan like it had just been woken up from a very comfortable nap.

**Why It’s Funny:** The real comedy began when it started responding to my shenanigans; if I left it alone for too long, it would flick the switch off with a smug little beep, as if to say, “Nice try, buddy!” Imagine having an appliance that gives you attitude for simply trying to enjoy it! The ridiculous back-and-forth made it feel less like a useless machine and more like my sarcastic roommate who just won’t let you have fun.
