      I don’t often use AI to picture these things, but I just imagined a tiny mouse hole to put your computer mouse in to charge overnight.

      Just this, but with more LEDs:

        Omg, you could totally put an rc set of wheels in the gap where a roller ball would go on an old mouse and make this.

        I don’t know how many visitors you’d need to have to actually get use out of that much work for a physical gag like that, but it could be cute at a computer repair shop or something like that.

      cat toy and long hair collector

      (lol I had a motorized snake toy with wheels while fostering a cat and that thing collected more hair in the wheels than it did cat-entertaining)

          I never understand how my wife’s hairs get in the places they do. Like, more often than not I wake up with one wrapped around my balls.

            My mom once pulled an 18”/45cm hair out of her eye. She didn’t realize what was in her eye until she started pulling. Luckily, it wasn’t wrapped around anything important, but it scared the shit out of her.

      They can leave little “mouse shit nuggets” around the house for you to find, like a some type of game, and they’re actually sweet and tasty so they function as a prize. So not completely useless. Unless you’re diabetic.
