Global Warming Mug Shows You What Happens When The World Gets Hotter

Posted on by

global-warming-mug

As far as pick-me-ups go, waking up in the morning to a visual reminder that a good chunk of the world will one day be under water is about as good as it gets. The Global Warming mug uses heat sensitive paint that shows you just which parts of the world are likely to end up underwater once the planet gets hot enough. Which it will, since we’re pretty much cooking the crap out of it. Looks like Florida’s a goner, along with most of the Eastern sea board and… is that Panama there in the middle? In any case, for $19, it could make an awesome gift for that Global Warming Denier in your circle…

These Zombie Mugs Are Ultra-Realistic, Whatever That Means

Posted on by

slow-zombie-1

I mean… as much as we like to imagine they’re real, zombies don’t exist. Ok? I don’t wanna burst anyone’s bubble, but it’s true. So, you know, that “realistic” tag is kind of funny… But if they were real, sculptor Turkey Murck’s Slow Zombie mugs would be as realistic looking as I’ve ever seen. They’re all cast from a hand-made mold, made out “of stoneware, coated in a food-safe glaze and fired to 2200 (F) degrees to ensure it is completely functional, durable and safe to drink from. All cast mugs are dishwasher and microwave safe.” They’re also not cheap, at $220 a pop. They’re completely sold out, but Turkey is planning to release a second batch in February. You can sig up on his website to signal your interest.

The Ember Mug Will Keep Your Drink Warm For You All Day

Posted on by

ember-1

Drinking coffee at the exact temperature you enjoy is like trying to hit a moving target; first it’s scalding, then it ends up lukewarm or cold within minutes. Ember is a pretty brilliant smart connected mug that first cools down your beverage quickly to your preferred temperature, then keeps it there all day. You set the temp by twisting the base, or by connecting the mug to your smartphone. If you do that, you’ll have the added benefit of being notified when your drink has cooled down to its optimal temp. The internal battery will then warm your liquids for up to two hours, or all day if you set Ember down on the wireless charging coaster that it comes bundled with. It’ll pair with an Apple Watch as well, or any iOS or Android device with Bluetooth 4.0 or later. It’s a $129 pledge, down from its expected $149 retail cost.

mr rogers sweater mug
It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood, a beautiful day for some coffee and food, won’t you be, won’t you be, my neighbor? Or something like that. May the wisdom of Mr. Rogers always be with you with this Mr. Rogers Sweater Changing Mug. And just like the real Fred Rogers did every episode of his show, this mug changes into a cardigan sweater. Well not the mug itself, that would be weird. But add a hot beverage and watch as Mister Rogers’ sweater automagically changes.

If that’s not enough to get you inspired, the 12 ounce mug is filled with classic Mr. Rogerisms. Not literally filled up with them, that would be weird. Let’s say covered in them. Now that’s better. See, I’ve made this day a special day just by being me. Thanks for the advice Mr. Rogers. Now I will go change my shoes because it’s such a good feeling to know I’m alive, such a happy feeling, I’m growing inside.

Coffee-Mug-With-Pipe-In-Handle

If the first thing you want to do when you get up in the morning is smoke up, we might want to suggest you could have a problem. Then again, we don’t judge and if that’s how you chose to live your life, then all the power to ya! So wouldn’t it be great if you were able to take a sip of your morning Joe and have a little toke at the same time, from the same vessel? That’s exactly what the Pipemug lets you do. They’re intended for tobacco use only (wink wink), and feature a fully functional pipe, with the mouthpiece on the handle and the chamber sticking out like a mushroom on the side. Prices start at $49 and don’t seem to go much higher than $60.
