What the hell is Pataphysics? Wiki article is too vague. Where i can find some examples of extended metaphors? Does anybody actually use this technique?

I can't tell if this is a troll thread or not but I'd invite you to actually look online before posting. 4chan has ceased being an all-knowing or even kind-of-sort-of-educated-but-cool older brother.
