What's the words/picture on your coffee cup?

My 1984 LA Olympics mug is from MickyD’s :wink: I used to use it in the bathroom because it was clear glass and you could see when it was due for a wash…er…scrubbing :eek:

At work, my mug has a goose in a Tarzan outfit with the words “lord of the jungle” The artwork is by Will Bullas. A gift from my ex-wife, but too cool to pitch :slight_smile:

Your mission, should you chose it Mr. sk8rixtx, is to hang onto that mug for the next 24 years. :stuck_out_tongue:

At work I have on eof those metal “mugs” (not really amug) with the Logo of the Losa Angeles Kings on it.

At home I have white Dunkin’ Donuts mug, which is actually a cruel thing to do to myself. I mean you can’t get the world’s best coffee, Dunkin’ Donuts, in Southern California.

The travel mug I take to school with me every morning has a picture of Goofy pouring sugar into his coffee, with so much sugar that it’s spilled out on the sides of the cup. It says “Nothing’s sweeter than the first cup.” I bought it because that’s pretty much how I take my coffee. A splash of milk and an entire sugar-shaker. My best friend is diabetic and she says she goes into sugar-shock just watching me drink it.

I also have a black mug that says (in white) “You all laugh because I’m different. I laugh because you’re all the same.”

Mine says “5th Annual Women’s Weekend, Camp Little Notch, HVGS Alumni Association, 1994.” The words “Women’s Weekend” are the only thing legible at a distance, and I think co-workers are afraid to ask about it.

My current work mug is from Batman Returns; it’s the Catwoman one (there were 4 in all: Batman, Catwoman, Penguin, and Gotham City). I bought the set to get Catwoman.

My previous work mug was a scene from the Papyrus of Ani (Egyptian); it got left in our office move this past April.

At the job before this one, I used a mug I stole from my parents; it was black, with a stylized representation of two cats. I stopped using that one at work when I changed jobs; now I only use it at home.

What I’d like is to get one that says, “It’s a dirty job, and I get to do it.” Even though my job isn’t dirty…

My favorite mug has a black & white photo of a woman (c. 1950-ish) dressed in a bathing suit, holding a mop in one hand, and a cigarette in the other. She’s scowling and doesn’t look to happy that her picture is being taken.

Under this pic, it says: “Does it look like I give a rat’s ass?”

My work mug has a drawing of a white dog on one side and the words “LE CHIEN”, and on the other side a spotted dog, you guessed it “LE CHIEN TIGRE.”

I have no idea where I got it, but I’ve had it for a number of years and continue to use it because it is on the large side. One of these years I’m gonna wash it out.

My “guest” mug is white with a big black “G” on it. Used to belong to my best buddy George, but he’s dead now and I picked it up while rifling his office after he died. (I also got his stapler!)

Unfortunately, my two favorite mugs are sans slogans. I have a stainless steel travel mug that used to say Eddie Bauer on it, but the ink rubbed off when it was washed :(.

The other mug I use a lot is a bib black coffee cup (ala Central Perks on Friends). Nope I don’t use it for coffee, or I would be up for a month. I mainly use it for herbal tea.

Work mug: United Federation of Planets, navy blue mug with stars and olive wreath logo in white.

Home: alternate between “World’s Greatest Dad” and a Crayola Crayon mug. Christmas time I break out a Disney character mug. Broke a favourite a few years back: Harvard Graphics Apaloosa horse and dalmation dog, wearing three-d glasses.

My favorite mug has Ernst Munsch’s The Scream on it.

Kind of says it all.

“Suomi” and “She Who Must Be Obeyed” - the perfect Mom mug.

Two mugs, both given to me by employees at work (large bookstore):

  "Sarcasm: Just One More Service We Offer"

  "What do I look like, an information booth?"

Boss lady told me to stop using the first one, but apparently, the second’s fine…:confused:

I have two mugs on my desk. One is a white Starbucks mug with the green logo. The other is a mug with Lucy (from The Peanuts) who has stormed through a room, knocking everyone over. She has her hands up and is yelling, “Who’s Crabby?”

Tibs

An old Barnes & Noble mug, cream colored, with the green caricature sketch of James Baldwin.

Hmmm, I don’t drink coffee, but I do have mugs for it. (Tea and chicken broth when sick.)

One has a caracture of J.R.R.Tolkien on it.
Another has my companies logo on it.
Another has the Babylon-5 logo on it.
My favorite is my mothers : Yes, I’m middle aged, but I’ll grow out of it.
Oh, and she used to have one that said : It takes a stud to build a house. (Was broken when we rebuilt the basement. :slight_smile: )

My mug proudly says “NY Yankees - 1996 World Series Champions”

#1 - Must remain at work (my wife has threatened to toss it if she sees it again) ‘Snap-On Tools - Out Front and Breaking Away’

#2 - Must remain at home (there are cat people at work [mind you I have nothing against cats]) B.Kliban ‘How to teach your cat to swim’ cat on dock with large rock tied to it.

#3 - Lives in car - Stainless travel mug w/Lucent VitalSuite logo.

#4 - Oversized w/Nasa logo from JSC - purchased as mine, but stays at home because my wife likes it.

I found it several years ago on a trip to Las Vegas. The text is from ‘Arsenic and Old Lace.’

“Insanity runs in the family. It practically gallops.”

I get the strangest looks in my office but it wards off the timid.

My fave mug is my Big Gay Al mug with him on the front in spikes, with his shirt open. The handle is broken and glued back together, but I just love it. “Hey fella’s!”
