Fun Google Search Easter Eggs Work With Query Refinements

Google is a big fan of doing easter eggs, and we’ve covered many of them in the past including ones that mess around with the display of the search results listing page. They include the do a barrel roll and blink HTML examples.
But did you know they work with query refinements, as well? Because of that, you can really mess around with your friends using Google.
For example, one of your friends tells you “my head is spinning.” Why not send them to a search result page that triggers the [do a barrel roll] query but displays results for the query [my head is spinning]. Here is an animated GIF of what they would see:

I am sure you all can come up with clever ideas.
