Description
David was known to appear on Clevver Games and Mahalo Games, and in 2011 Lasercorn's first appeared in Lasercorn's 1st Vlog on his YouTube channel. On September 2012 he switched over to Smosh Games. He also has his own channel called Lasercorn, started on February 26, 2013.
Appearance
David has short dirty orange hair and brown eyes. As of June 2014, Lasercorn's hair has been dyed orange. He had to dye it this colour after losing a Cage Match to Sohinki, the footage for which can be seen in 22nd June 2014's bonus video. As an added forfeit, he has to keep it this colour for an entire month. He admitted on a Twitch stream that he is too lazy to dye it again (either orange or his natural hair color), so he is going to wait until it washes out. He also said that he has been considering dying again, with either red or green, but he may have been joking. He did dye it again and now it's dark reddish orange.
Trivia
Lasercorn and his wife on their wedding day
- Lasercorn gets his nickname from a tattoo on his back of a unicorn shooting a laser with a rocket launcher on its back. Jovenshire gave him the name after seeing the tattoo, when Joven asked if he could call him Lasercorn, to which he replied "I'm weirdly okay with that."
- Lasercorn's tattoo was referenced strongly in the Robot Unicorn Tattoos! Game Bang, where the loser would get a tattoo, based on Lasercorn's, drawn on their back with permanent marker.
- Lasercorn got his tattoo when several years ago, a friend of his was leaving to serve in the marines in Afghanistan. Lasercorn invited his friend to do anything he wanted the weekend before he left, to which his buddy invited him to get tattoos done. Lasercorn got his lasercorn tattoo; his friend got Samuel L. Jackson riding a T-rex. Lasercorn has said on a few occasions that his friend's tattoo is the ONLY tattoo in the world which he considers superior to his own lasercorn tattoo.
- David is married to Sabrina "Brina" Moss, a fitness trainer who has yet to be shown in any videos. Their first child, Tyler Moss was born in early 2015 (c. March).

- He has had to do the punishment on four out of eleven occasions (and is currently the player who has done the second most dancing punishments): Just Dance 4 Hilarity, Don't Stop the Hip Hop, The King of Pop Would Be Proud, and It's a Game Bang Ho-Down, having come in last place in all but Just Dance 4 Hilarity.

- In a Q&A video on his own channel, he has stated that he considers himself to be the best Smosh Games gamer (or at least, the most balanced)
- It has been shown that he is feared (at times) by the other members, or at least on camera. A notable example would be in Attack on Lasercornia, where everyone was terrified and unsettled by Lasercorn's calm approach after they had destroyed Lasercornia, or when Joven refused Sohinki's dare to eat Lasercorn's food because "he will beat me up".
- In Why We're Single videos, Lasercorn has shown the tendency to repeat the theme of the video (i.e. the subject that will be talked about), prior to his answers to the theme. This linguistic 'formula', if you will, is then often followed by "let's see..."
- Its been implied in multiple videos that he is actually very lazy such as aspiring to be a Snorlax from pokemon and admiring how it can disrespect authority out laziness in Apparently We're Lazy Dicks, throwing a pillow at Jovenshire for waking him up and refusing to cook breakfast in Comic Con Breakfast.
- He is one of the two SmoshGames members (and only male) to have a working relationship, the other member is Mari.
- One of his most well-known intros is the "Laser-stare" in which, with a neutral expression, he will open his eyes wide and slowly tilt his head to his right in a disturbing and terrifying manner.
- Ian and Lasercorn were forced to dance to the song (I've Had) The Time Of My Life by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes whilest reenacting the dance from the movie Dirty Dancing as punishment in Just Dance 4 Hilarity causing the creation of what fans and other members call Iancorn which is often referenced in other videos.

- Lasercorn has said numerous times that Bulletstorm is his favorite video game such as wearing a Bulletstorm T-shirt, putting Grayson Hunt (the protagonist) on top 5 Anti heros and mentions talking about it alot in Best and Third Person Shooter Kills whilest talking about the kills, often places the game on the top 5 lists and mainly states his disappointment in the lack of a sequel to the game.
- Lasercorn did the ALS ice bucket challenge on another channel called davemossmedia.
- He has tendencies to make up facts in order to succeed in a game then immediately saying that the viewer shouldn't research it.

- Contrary to popular belief, it was actually Lasercorn who slurred the 's' in Death Bus to give it its current name and later blamed it on Jovenshire, as revealed during a brief flashback in the Air Death Buth episode.
- Lasercorn is by far the most insane and destructive member of the crew in Grand Theft Smosh, to the point where most deaths, blasts, explosions, cop attacks, robberies, and generally any activities that involve utterly destroying stuff, are blamed on him, and rightfully so. He seems particularly addicted to sticky bombs.
- He hates to be called by his real name.
- In Shapes Are Hard in Geometry Wars 3 he states he has ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) and because of this found it difficult to play.
