I just want to empty it out and replace it with a fart. Edison was a piece of shit.
StatisticallyInsignificantCanadian
You could say Ford "took his breath away."
Zachno
They'll say awwww Topsy at my autopsy!

"I am a 1000 percent sure" lol why stop there should of went for a cold mil percent sure

With all the star wars hype floating around, I read Henry Ford as Harrison Ford. Confusion ensued. Guess it's time for bed.
GahNotThisShitAgain
What if it was his soul that he captured and now it is trapped in a display cabinet at a museum for ever instead of going to heaven...
samuraipizzamel
Fart into it.
nova73infort
Awesome museum from the chair Lincoln was shot in, to the car Kennedy was in as well! Planes trains and automobiles!
AnalBeard
Ford probably just farted in it
daruace
Eh, same thing

Edison was a dick. I'd love to fart in his breath tube.
NeynasGhost
That's a crappy seal. I bet the breath leaked out years ago, assuming he actually caught any in that thing.
alxnikki
Teslas death mask is in that museum
rbasta
I've got Star Wars on my mind so much that I first read that as 'Harrison Ford'. Was really puzzled that Harrison Ford was near Edison.
skogkatt
Smells of pipe tobacco, whiskey, and menthol.
Kingofstarryskies
Smells of scum, villainy, and deceit.
witchtrash
And thievery.

Hi Tom I heard you were dying. Oh this test tube? ignore it. Just relax a drift off big guy. Fake!
jackbos
Tesla was an asshole. Learn history from sources OTHER than The Oatmeal.
ClassicSwanson
Do you think we could somehow use this as a sacrifice in an unholy ritual to bring Nikola Tesla back?
Takila
The weirdest museum object I've seen is a hologram picture (?) of the camera (??) that took the last picture of Lenin (???).
MightyIink
How do we know though? It could be nothing, it could be a fart for all we know...
cessiamonster
Wouldn't recording it on a phonograph have been more apropos?
MaryJaneAnn
How does one capture said "last breath" in an empty paper towel roll?
awkwardstare
how awkward must it be to "capture" the last breath of someone. "Don't mind me I just need to shove this tube in your mouth just as you die"
AccountCreatedToUpdogVotes
Technically, you could make this whole process a lot easier by guaranteeing when their last breath was.
TheGuardingDark
Calm down Satan
lenomdeplume
Not terribly surprising for Ford....he was a well known Nazi sympathizer (and vocal anti-semite) .
pretzelwagon
You can also see Lincoln's chair he was shot in there
MattCavner
And a couple of the presidential limos.
DutchKincaid
Not to mention, it's sitting only about a couple hundred feet from Kennedy's death car.
GodtheMagicalSkyDaddy
The Henry Ford museum is really cool. My fav exhibit is this retro circular house thing I can't remember the name of. It's so cool.
Chrichelle
I've been there! That house was awesome! At the time no one wanted it and the other one sold for like 2 dollars or something ridiculous.,.
2007yaris
The dymaxion house. The inventor wanted to use surplus B-17s to drop bombs to blow out the center foundation hole.
Meeploo
You could say its *Puts on shades* a breathtaking exhibit.

YYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAA!HHHHHHHHHHH

I want to slap that down vote. You made me laugh though, so here's my damn up vote.
AyaElemelon
You're the reason I browse Imgur.

Happy to be here

Last time I commented about tesla v. Edison a bunch of Edison apologists showed up and downvoted. I didn't know they existed.
webimgur
The ability to know and quote facts does not turn one into an "apologist."
squallau
Probably because of all the fabricated and exaggerated nonsense surrounding the whole silly Tesla vs Edison thing. From both sides.

TOPSY
frogbog
Edison brought to market the light bulb, electricity, movies, and record players. Can't believe how little the respect
MakeItBackAlright
Do you know why Hollywood is in California? To escape Edison's patent goon squad strangling the film industry. He really was an asshole.
frogbog
Because he had a legally authorized patent for his invention, which he enforced? ... What an asshole.
MakeItBackAlright
And patent trolls are just upstanding businessmen.
frogbog
A troll is someone who asserts a knowingly weak patent to extract a settlement that is less than litigation costs. Ed wanted an injunction.
AMacGyver
Most everyone I know thinks Edison is a dick, so color me shocked.
squallau
There's a lot of things he *was*. What he *is* is worm food. ;)
onepinksheep
Shocked, you say? AC or DC?
gamblingpoet
Telsa wasn't perfect either. He believed in eugenics. People are flawed, no one is the hero people make them out to be. Cept Spider-man.
MakeItBackAlright
We're heavily sensitized to eugenics because of historical precedent Tesla didn't have. Plenty of people would be proponents otherwise.
gamblingpoet
He used the term "less desirable strains". Said that sterilization of criminals/insane wasn't enough. It's okay for him be wrong.
MakeItBackAlright
That's what euthanasia means, yes. But looking back with cultural tone deafness is a hallmark of the modern age.
