There’s more than one way to give your brain a break. Some people meditate, and others curl up with a nice book. I happen to find that doing menial chores really calms me after a hard day. But what if you don’t have any chores to get done?
Luckily, the Internet has an endless stream of mechanical-themed gifs that are oddly satisfying to watch. Here are a few of the best.
A wood handshake.
This bullet going into a wall.
Extreme frisbee golf.
“Can” you dig it?
I hope there are more stairs than the ones we see here.
Oh man. When the metal cools into that nice ring? Perfection.
I don’t really know how this happens, but I can’t stop watching.
Now that’s what I call a perfect game.
How? Just how?
Why do I assume every guy who is good at frisbee is from Connecticut?
It’s like watching a beautiful sunset, but way better.
I realize how provocative this is.
I can’t tell if this is gross or not.
If Hawkeye was your maid.
Nothing’s more satisfying to watch than a heavily tattooed arm with amazing calligraphy skills.
Hammer time.
I honestly have no idea what this is, but I’m super into it.
I need this for my pizza parties.
Feeling relaxed yet? I sure am. No meditative mantra or runner’s high clears my head better than watching a heated steel ball sink into a block of ice. Thanks to these gifs, I think I’m one step closer to enlightenment.
