You'd have this mug in your collection. Yes or no?

1. Still drinking coffee out of my Dark Brandon mug and I'm not gonna give it up

[The Madcap]

2. No

But it is eye-catching....not in a good way.

[some_of_us_are_sane]

3. Absolutely!

[Beatlelvr]

4. Uh, no

[rampartd]

5. no

if the antique roadshow price on that thing might be thousands i'd sell it.

[we can do it]

6. Oh hell no.

[2naSalit]

7. Nope.

[True Dough]

8. I think an important point to consider

is whether the mug would clean itself.

[lastlib]

9. No. If I want to see that, I'll watch....

...a Mick Jagger video.

I'm drinking my coffee these days from my "Fuck tRump and Fucj You for Voting for him" mug. I'm sticking with that.

[True Dough]

12. First Stones reference in the thread!

I did think of that album cover when I saw this mug.

[multigraincracker]

10. My best one says Coffee From Hell.

In smaller letters it says Hell Michigan.

[AltairIV]

11. nope

I'll stick with my 1984 NY Mets mug and the Roy Kent mug [from Ted Lasso] my wife got me for Christmas two years ago.

[Marthe48]

13. Does it moan?

[True Dough]

14. I just hope

it doesn't drool!

[malthaussen]

15. If I had a mug collection, which I don't, that would not be among them.

It's not a bad piece of work, but I own mugs to drink from, not to look interesting on a shelf.

16. Grotesque!!

[True Dough]

17. Wait until

you smell its breath! You don't know the half of it!

[some_of_us_are_sane]

18. It's now decided!

I AM THE WEIRDEST ONE in DU!!! The only one who would make a home for this appalling mug...

[ProfessorGAC]

19. Hard No

Even if I still used ceramic mugs, it would be a no.
(I always use of stainless steel thermomug because I'm really persnickety about it being hot.)

[OldBaldy1701E]

20. Meh, once the coffeemaker is done, I just put the pot on the stove to make it hotter.

Plus, my maker has a two hour limit for being on. That can suck if I am not drinking it as fast as it wants me to.

[ProfessorGAC]

22. I'd Be Worried About...

...oxidizing the flavenoids, and the higher the temperature the quicker that happens.
In the thermomug, there's no added energy so those reactions actually slow down.
The complex alcohols & aldehydes oxidize to carboxylic acids which create sourness & a less pleasant bitterness.
See what happens when you get an organic chemist started?

[Clouds Passing]

23. I hate that burnt coffee taste, now I know why. Thanks Prof 😀

[OldBaldy1701E]

25. As a long-time barista, I completely agree.

But, one works with what one has. I don't really make it much hotter, just a bit. (Plus, the main reason is to keep it hotter longer.)

[OldBaldy1701E]

21. Sure.

I'd call it 'The Jagger Cup'!

[Niagara]

24. Check my DU signature, True

I'm rebellious by nature.

[True Dough]

27. Oh my!

I'm honored to have contributed, Niagara!

Theme music for this occasion:

[Niagara]

30. Excellent!

I put the image in my signature line because mostly everyone else hated it.


I'll keep it there for a little while.

[Joinfortmill]

26. Interesting but, no

[happybird]

28. 100% Yes

[buzzycrumbhunger]

29. Barf.

Hard no for me—and this is coming from a woman whose favourite mug (I actually have two!) is covered in skulls…

[True Dough]

32. That's pretty cool too!

Are they all wearing sunglasses?

[buzzycrumbhunger]

33. LOL, no

Just sunken eye holes.

My son actually found the pair of them sitting on someone’s trash bin—price tags on ($24 each!)—in a Mennonite neighbourhood, of all places. Nice stainless steel mugs on the inside. For some reason, he’s been unwilling to use them so I got them by default—one for work and one for home.

[badhair77]

31. Uh, no.

I’m happy with my RBG mug.

[CTyankee]

34. Dear god!

what do you think?

[mercuryblues]

35. No, but I would give it to my brother for Christmas.

He'd kill me.
