One of the most difficult decisions I make all day is which mug to drink my morning coffee from. Yes, I know what you’re thinking: this guy’s life must be real tough, but you try choosing between the McDonald’s Mayor McCheese 60th anniversary collector’s edition mug and the World’s Greatest Grandson mug that your Grandma Ruth spent months trying to find… not so easy after all. Recently I have come across a new type of mug that is about to make my morning decision a no-brainer thanks to the twisted and brilliant minds at Urban Dictionary.
Urban Dictionary (www.urbandictionary.com) is the Mecca of filthy, hilarious lingo ranging from inventive slang terms to celebrated sexual maneuvers. Whether it was from my laptop in class during my college years or from an office computer, not a day goes by without visiting Urban Dictionary to see their word of the day and sharpen my already mortifying vocabulary with some fresh and original content. I find that their website slogan, “define your world,” is fitting only if your world is a middle school boy’s locker room or any movie featuring Joe Pesci since that wacky little gangster curses like an angry sailor.
In addition to their cornucopia of dirty words, Urban Dictionary has thrown their hat into the kitchenware ring with a custom-made mug service. Through a partner site, Zazzle.com, you can place a word of your choosing onto a mug and be drinking from your own personalized potty-mouth porcelain for just $19.95. What’s better than having “Hangover Cure” plastered onto the side of your mug as you try to beat those Sunday morning blues after a night of dangerous levels of boozing?
By simply clicking on the “get this def on a mug” link at the bottom of each definition, Urban Dictionary will direct you to their mug creator site. With so many ridiculous words at your disposal, Urban Dictionary can be your one stop shop for all your drinking needs as you can stock your cabinets with everything from the A -“Alaskan Firedragon” to Z – “Zac Efron Angry Walk.”
