Describe your coffee mug thusly

Not very fancy, but keeps coffee warm for hours. (I make myself a cup first thing in the morning, and that usually lasts me through lunch.)

I'm really sorry this is irritating Mark P. I am sad now.

At home, my favorite is a white Cafe du Monde mug from New Orleans, or a black oversized Farscape mug.

I was totally joking. As far as I know, there is no official "This is A Low" mug, or I would have already bought and broken it.

I drink coffee from one just like this every morning.

We just got an exciting cafetiere that is also a Thermos! Evenings on the beach have acquired a whole new fresh-coffee-shaped dimension!

I don't often drink tea or coffee at my desk though so I haven't got a mug to describe.

The ones I actually drink out of are many and varied, though at work I mostly drink out of whatever paper cup my morning coffee happens to have been purchased in.

Mine is now sadly empty of the extra-strength iced latte I made a few minutes ago.

wakes you right up

!!!

that's what I'm currently drinking out of

you'd make tea at 6 AM in the morning and by 5PM in the evening it'd finally be cool enough to drink

they keep the coffee hot for too long.

impossible! i'm a slow sipper, so this actually sounds good to me.

also they're heavy.

for some reason, that really appeals to me!

if that's the case, go to amazon.com and type in 'zojirushi mug' into the search bar, my man... I think you'll like what you find. I guarantee it.

don't be that theonion.com guy who spent $5000 and a year of his life finding the... perfect mug

ok, it's down to these two:

http://www.amazon.com/Thermos-16-Ounce-Vacuum-Insulated-Tumbler-Stainless/dp/B0039SLSU6/ref=pd_sbs_hg_5

is the top one the one you had, dayo? the tuff mug? i like it, but is that a sticker on the front that peels off, or a permanent logo? i'd like to go logo-less

Zojirushi's Tuff Mug is unbreakable

we'll see about that, amazon.com, we will see

no I bought a mug with a tea strainer I can't find the model anymore but I think it's like that nissan mug in one of the links you posted

I think it's a sticker, I could do some ~investigative journalism~ for you and stop in at one of the numerous zojirushi displays here in asia later

it's too late, i bought the Thermos Sipp 16-Ounce Vacuum-Insulated Travel Tumbler, first because it's almost called the Tumblr, but mainly because of this A-type review:

I bought this tumbler for my girlfriend. When I got it home; I opened it and poured in water from the teakettle. Using a instant read food thermometer I checked the temp. I started at 206 deg, closed the lid and let it set. at 1 hour the temp was 193 deg. At 2 hours 182 deg; at 4 hours 164 deg; and at 6 hours temp was still 152 degrees. over a 6 hours period the temp only decreased 54 degrees. During my test I noticed that the outside of the cup did not feel at all warm to the touch; the only part that changed at all was the top and then only slightly warmer. I also tested the seal by turning the cup upside down for one of the hours with no leaks at all.

I have a Sbux one Mr Veg gave me for Christmas a few years ago...I can fill it with coffee at 7am and coffee will still be hot at 9am. It's pretty awesome. Stainless steel inside easy to clean, pretty good seal in the lid, has lasted me a long time.

It makes me ;_; to go back to the cheapass travel mug I used to use...leaks all over the place and coffee is practically cold by the time you put the lid on

and coffee is practically cold by the time you put the lid on

I think your mistake here was using a travel mug made out of ice

still highly, highly skeptical of powermugs tbh

stupid eskimo travel mugs

revisit!

when i was in law school i kept seeing this green mug on a ledge in the ladies' room, day after day. no one claimed it so i took it. it's pretty nice. i've had it for like 9 years now.

You may now describe it thusly!

bathroom mug is still a bathroom mug, you know

Big, maybe half liter, Starbucks with white silhouettes of London landmarks on a black background

It's very me I like to think

Maybe 350-400ml, cheap-feeling, white with a big b&w photo of Viktor Tsoi playing the guitar.

A yellow medium sized cup with the global alarm installation mega-company ADT logo on it, and their "Always There" slogan written underneath. It reminds me I used to do something in the wider world and get paid for it and perhaps it might be some meta-commentary on mortality or something.

the mug will always be a bathroom mug, yes, that is why no one wanted it. i love to take abandoned and unwanted things. my cat was in the shelter for months. no one wanted her because she was a shy cat. she goes with the green mug.

we only use the beer tankards from ikea as mugs. I think it fits about 20oz, 60cl. When we go to UK, EU we actually take a couple with us because we can't stand the tiny mugs there. And we tend to drink ice coffee so it withstands hot liquids and you are able to put ice in it.

Can we see a pic of the cat and her mug please?

The whimsical stoneware Owl Buddy Mug features hand-illustrated, fine-feathered friends against a straw-colored field, with a creamy interior and narrow brown rim.

Definite notes of whimsy in every sip.

It’s a good sized white mug with a nice weight to it that used to have United States Secret Service stuff printed on it in a nice shade of blue, but the dishwasher scalded that off a while ago so now it’s just plain white like it came from a big box housewares store.

Heh as opposed to the hi quality gov stock where the paint comes off in the wash right

Mine is a heavy ceramic job that's as wide as it is tall, with a big handle you can get four fingers into. It holds 16 ounces. The inside is white (as white as I can keep it), the rim is black, and the outside is bright orange speckled with tasteful white and black speckles.

more secret that way

mine is artisanal

it looks like a product of the earth

instead of a handle it has a hand-warmer pocket of empty space folded into the side

I want everybody to know that I am motivated in my coffee drinking by the prospect of seeing gudetama's bare ass pic.twitter.com/CNOxfeazkD

My current is a mid-80s white ceramic mug with a picture of the racehorse Ferdinand:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinand_(horse)

I most likely received this mug as a free entry gift to the 1986 Kentucky Derby, which Ferdinand one.

Much to the outrage of many horse racing enthusiasts, reports indicate that in 2002, Ferdinand was sent to slaughter in Japan with no fanfare or notice to previous owners. He likely became either pet food or steaks for human consumption.[1]

one = won

Ferdinand I

lol

In approximate order of acquisition:

Your-olde-name mug with image of olde motor car gifted by grandfather who died circa preteens and acquired or at least produced in metro Miami to which I've never been anywhere close but in which my Dad oddly spent a few years growing up. Still in use, moreso than in childhood, but design fading sufficiently that it should maybe be retired soon.

Elaborately-drawn (vaguely Russian?) oceanic-themed heavyweight childhood cocoa mug I believe still somewhere in the depths of storage

(25+ year) Old Starbucks mug with colorful (but similarly sadly fading) logo of one of their early geographically-described bean varieties. Still in use and favorite for combo of design and satisfying weight/width.

Plastic camping mug(s) from high school-age western backpacking trips with outfitter logo, no longer in use (also in storage?)

20+ year old plastic travel mug from local public radio station, no longer in use

Frank Lloyd Wright art-glass-design-printed mug retired due to fading

Decade-old plastic camping mug from adult western backpacking trip with outfitter logo, no longer in use

Unique and nice dark ceramic mug with logo of umbrella public interest advocacy organization under which friend runs a program; largely unused

Several-year-old tiny espresso mug in deeply satisfying le creuset color

Recent gift of tourist mug with stylized pencil-drawn skyline of prominent western Canadian city in its typical colours. In use.

More recent gift of weighty, richly-textured outdoor-western-themed gag mug, sometimes home to small, excitable grizzly bear

It is very rare for me to put any sort of hot beverage in any but the creates

i have a lovely handmade mug from Bendigo Pottery that mum gave me for xmas one year

my current fave is a Bobs Burgers mug
it has Louise on it and says
WHY DONT YOU SPEAK TO ME IN WORDS INSTEAD OF YOUR DAMN DIRTY LIES <3

Heh as opposed to the hi quality gov stock where the paint comes off in the wash right

Believe the USSS zippo is in storage as well

large faded "The Brown Mug - use it again and again and again ..." rescued from unwanted kitchen items box in the house I lived in in college 20+ years ago. one of my housemates had converted a similar mug into a bong for a different type of fading.

^ holds approx 32 oz of coffee

How much does the NIST mug hold

5E15 femtoliters

Keep cup, glass, green silicone band, red lid, small. I wish they did a 6oz one in glass.

i need a new travel mug

Beige (the color of coffee with too much milk), tall and slim, from ikea
The diameter of the top fits my drip apparatus perfectly

tmi calstars

Ah lads

If you teach grade school, and you drink a lot of coffee at work, and your students see you drink a lot of coffee at work, by the time you retire, you'll have enough coffee mugs to stock a Starbucks.
