This short and winsome tale tells the story of one Nikolai Tesla vs. the Douchebaggery of Thomas Edison. Now I know Edison did a lot of crazy shit himself, like invent the lightbulb, record player and film camera, but the man held many things to be desired — such as his respect for onetime employee-soon-to-be-nemesis […]

The Andes Transporter could save a lot of relationships
It’s always hard to tell what’s real in these wacky interwebs, but this marketing ploy by Argentinian beer company Andes sure seems to be legit. Not only legit, but really quite inventive. In this think-inside-the-box, free-social-media, scantily-clad-promotional-girls world of beer advertising you have to take your hats of to Andes if they really pulled this […]

After the DURKL Sherlock Holmes hat, this Pipe Necklace seems very appropriate. Although wearing a detective hat and smoking a pipe, whilst wearing a pipe-shaped necklace, might be taking the esteemed gentleman thing a bit too far. But for only $70 (54 euros), it’s a look you can afford.

Now that's a lot of geniusNow that's a lot of genius
I just stumbled across this treasure — the entire body of Calvin and Hobbes cartoons published in a tribute three-book boxset titled The Complete Calvin and Hobbes. Not only is Calvin and Hobbes a LIAS all time favorite, but it is unquestionably one of the most popular comic strips of all time. After launching in […]

David Cross + Will Arnett + British Humor = Very Funny
Fans of Arrested Development should be pretty stoked about The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret. Once again pairing up David Cross and Will Arnett, the British show revolves around the rather pathetic adventures of Todd Margaret (played by Cross), an ineffectual American loser sent to London to head up the promotions for an energy […]
