Link Love: Laugh It Off

by Sophy on January 15th, 2009

News just in: Laugh It Off has a new website, packed with puns and the take-no-prisoners/crap attitude we have come to associate with Justin Nurse & Co., ever since Nurse was misguidedly prosecuted by SAB for creating the “Black Labour, White Guilt” t-shirt.

Early last year, the group released their third annual, The LIO Annual Volume 3 – which included the likes of Koos Kombuis among its scribes. Then came the one-two punch of Derby Day (4000 copies sold and counting) and The Western Nostril (compilation of the single-panel cartoon strip that appears daily on the leader page of Business Day, as well as online at thewesternnostril.co.za).

It’s all dedicated to the longevity of the LIO religion, “Humourology”.

In their own words, LIO has “Brand spanking new shit. Now with added MSG” and is “Loudly South African. Fun in lousy times. While laughing stocks last.” BOOK SA loves Laugh It Off for their risky humour and brilliant graphics. And maybe we’re a tad jealous. Link love it up:

• Laugh It Off homepage
