Losers, Kings, and Things We Don't Understand is a compilation album by Less Than Jake, released on No Idea Records in 1995.
The album itself is a compilation of every previous Less Than Jake release apart from their debut album Pezcore. These include the EPs Smoke Spot (the band's first release), Unglued, Pez Kings, Making Fun of Things You Don't Understand, Six Pack to Go, and a previously unreleased track, "Good Time For Change". The cover includes the Japanese text レス・ザン・ジェイク.
The vinyl edition doesn't include the tracks from Making Fun Of Things You Don't Understand or "Good Time for Change".
The compilation was re-issued on March 18, 2008, on the band's own label, Sleep It Off Records, accompanied by a live DVD. Concerning this release - and other re-releases on their own label - drummer and lyricist Vinnie, mentioned that the band:
"wanted to start with Losers, Kings, And Things We Don’t Understand, which was our first recorded material as a band. These literally are some of the first songs we recorded together, and it seemed obvious that it should be one of the first releases on our newly started label."
