Get the Thomas Edison mug.Screwing someone over so bad it borders on sociopathic. It's beyond just business, it's beyond ambition, it's sick and twisted and the bestower of said screwing gets a perverted enjoyment out of it.
"Did you hear James' ex wife gave him the Edison Screw after the divorce by stealing his dog then getting it put down?"

The man who knows how to save the world, but can't get enough people to get his plans working. Oftentimes his plans are called crazy, and some people like Thai men named Soontorn say he is just like Donald Trump but on the other end of the spectrum. Elson knows all that is wrong with the world via Reddit and news, but knows that everyone else is too busy commenting on Reddit posts and gaming on Valorant to care. People like William and others feel the world is fine, and routinely win against Elson despite Elson having a valid point. If the world was ruled by him, we could have flying cars in only one country, but due to the shit leadership of the one percent we are stuck with guro pics flying into random people's DMs.
Ashley: Dude, so much things are wrong with the world.
Daisy: I know right? We could use an Elson right now tbh.
Vanille: Unfortunately, there are too many shit people for that to happen. Humanity has failed. So yeah, we should def help the Elsons around the world to save everyone! After all...

Get the Elson mug.One of the funniest guys in the world. Probably best known for his television show Bottom, he commonly appears alongside Rik Mayall, who's also fucking halarious. He's married to Jennifer Saunders, who's probably the funniest woman I have ever seen.
Ava: Hey, did you catch Bottom last night?
Vivian: No, I missed it! I need my Adrian Edmondson fix, or I'll die, slowly and painfully.

Get the Adrian Edmondson mug.When Edmonds highschool and Woodway highschool combined, it became Edmonds-Woodway. Rivals with Meadowdale, the school most commonly called 'Edway' or 'E-Dub' is known for their school spirit and amazingly good sports teams. EWHS's mascot is the warrior. Most students go to the surrounding fast-food places such as dairy queen, burger king, starbucks, and in fall 2011 dick's burgers. Edmonds-Woodway is legendary because of alumni Anna Faris, Kevin Forrest, and Michael DeRosier. Anyone living in the Seattle Suburbs has heard of this school.
