Designers Create Meat Eating Furniture 120
Sonny Yatsen writes "NPR's Robert Krulwich explores the work of several designers who are working on carnivorous furniture. These creations, include a clock that feeds on dead flies, and a table that lures mice into a guillotined death. 'We want robots to be able to get their own energy from the environment,' says co-designer Prof. Melhuish. Let's hope they come up with a lounge chair that eats cockroaches sometime soon."

The coffee table eats mice to power itself.
But what does it need power for? It's pretty much a coffee table without the energy the mouse will provide!
It needs power so that it can eat mice, duh!
