The Machine That Perfectly Mirrors Your Existential Dread

Finally, a product that truly understands the expat existential crisis: a machine whose sole purpose is to switch itself off. It's a profound metaphor for life, isn't it? Or perhaps just a testament to how much disposable income one has after selling a house in California. Perfect for those quiet afternoons in Pescadero, contemplating the futility of existence, one self-flipping switch at a time. The Useless Can, a DIY kit, was successfully funded on Kickstarter.
