Have you ever seen or used a piece of software and wondered what on Earth the programmer was smoking? Yeah, me too. Here are some of my favorites:

iCursor: Leave a trail of sparkles behind your cursor. It also shows off OS X’s graphics technology.

Eyeballs 3.1: Need a pair of eyes in your menubar? Of course not! But that’s the beauty of it.

Headlines: Like to laugh at those tabloid headlines? This is the perfect screensaver for you!

EightBall: Put a magic fortune-telling 8-ball in your Dock. Note: OS X may nag you that it won’t work on your version of OS X, but seems to work fine.

iCat: Either you’ll be extremely amused by it or you’ll want to kill yourself.

What are your favorite useless bits of code?
