More details here Has Mechanical Age Arrived?
After the Second Industrial Revolution, countless factories were set up. The roar of machinery continued around the clock as the wave of modernization affected every aspect of the American society. Radio, automobiles, steam-powered ships, and airplanes changed the way people lived. The great Machine Age had arrived. Cutting-edge machines could help people solve issues from dining to traveling, though they might be complex, sophisticated and expensive. Rube Goldberg machines were thus born. They are convoluted, yet incredibly simple. In comparison with the mass-produced mechanical components in factories, Goldberg machines use parts that are much simpler and more absurd. Their invention might be meant to poke fun at the era of precise engineering, though nobody actually knows the truth. Some think this is a joke, but there are others who are very serious about it.
Something for nothing
Water, Land, and Air Autonomous Blimp! Sensational Work by Young Engineering Genius. He clutched at the newspaper in his hand and made a face at the picture of a teenager laughing in a giant blimp. He then smugly placed the newspaper in the most conspicuous spot in the cabinet, next to some oddly-shaped machines.
Then, the next day, he took the latest newspaper, where he found an even more eye-catching headline. A Foolish Genius? No Plans of Selling the Blimp's Design! Next, a Breadcrumb Spraying Dispenser.
He pouted and muttered, sounding slightly put out, "They're so harsh. I'm no more than an average Joe!"
Another newspaper was carefully placed in the cabinet.

Life Is Filled with Surprises
Pandora Wilson: Please introduce this exquisite mechanical ball you're holding.
X: It's just a toy I made for fun. Instead, I'd like to introduce this Auto-Seduction Lipstick I've just invented. Have a look! Is there anyone in the world better suited to test this out?
Pandora Wilson: That's alright. What an impressive invention.
Pandora Wilson: Let's talk about something else. There was an accident at an orphanage a few years ago and I heard you were present.
X: Oh? If you want to discuss topics that have nothing to do with the interview, you have to test this Bubble Gum Spraying Alarm Clock in exchange, okay?
Pandora Wilson: The deceased appeared to have been killed by a loose shingle from the roof. The angle, wind speed and power it had was incredibly precise.
X: Oh, such is life. It's filled with coincidences and accidents.
X: Don't be sad. Now, let's try this Mini Priest Bouncer and pray for him, shall we?
Pandora Wilson: Please excuse me.
X: ~♪~
Pandora Wilson: Ouch! Don't pull me!
