I've never seen a laptop cooler come with its own comic strip before, but it still hasn't convinced me this noisy beast is worth $50

I've never seen a laptop cooler come with its own comic strip before, but it still hasn't convinced me this noisy beast is worth $50

Andy Edser is a man with a mission. It's a mission he didn't sign up for, or even want, but I'm his boss so he has to do what I say. And I'm making him test a ton of different cheap tech I might find on Amazon, AliExpress, TikTok Shop, or down the back of my sofa. Out of nowhere it will appear on his doorstep with no warning, and he has no choice but to use whatever it is like his life depends on it. Because it does.

I find myself charmed (and perhaps a little perturbed) by the little black envelope included with this Klim Everest laptop cooling pad. Inside you get a set of shiny stickers, a warranty card, and, err.. a comic strip depicting the fictional process that begins when you order one.

"Your product was carefully retrieved from our inventory with sterilized anti-bacterial gloves and placed on a satin silk cushion," the first panel explains. "The party we organized to celebrate your order lasted three days."

Okay, that's something I've never seen before. And I'll be honest, the sarcastic comic endears me to the product more than it should. I could do without the last panel, though, which says: "If you feel like it, send us a photo of you (or your pet) and we'll send you a printable version of this comic strip with your photo on it."

A step too far, I feel. 3-inches in size and powered by a USB Type-A port.
