Need a new mug
 

As Scoobynet is the fount of all knowledge, I thought I'd ask for help.

I need a new mug for work. As I work in IT, it needs to be as geeky as it is funny, it needs to baffle as much as excite and it needs to hold coffee, white, with 2 sugars.

This is cool Caffeine mug or there are others here :)

:D

I've got one that makes the coffee, puts the sugar in and stirs it without me even having to lift a finger ;)

Me too, it's attached to the g/f :D ;)

Not exicted by any of those yet. Perhaps I should try and find a real petrol head one and out-geek the geeks by being geekier than them on a subject they know nothing about? :D

Try the "demotivator mug"

I love this site, some of the posters are brilliant!

get one of those grommit mugs free with PG tips (I think)

free and the nose changes colour to see the temp of your brew...witchcraft!!

No thanks, did you see what it did to their storage facility??!! :cry:

Are you a Portlander?

Forgive my ignorance, whats a portlander?

Portland is in Dorset (nr Weymouth) the islanders find it very offensive to use the word rabbit on Portland (bunny is ok), the release of the film caused outrage due to 'that word' being in the title :cuckoo:

Of course they refused to go and see the film and when the warehouse burnt down it confrimed their fears 'it was cursed' :Whatever_

:cuckoo:

LOL, thanks for enlightening me! :) Must get out past the M25 at some point in the future.

Maybe I'll go there with a copy of Watership Down! :)

How about a Badger Mug? www.badgerbadgerbadger.com

No mug suggestions, except the ones with the bikin'd birds that get naked when hot water added (thats my work mug). Just wanted to say the badger badger badger song has given many minutes of pleasure in the past ... a snake ohhh a snake! :lol1:

I think I'd got the opposite way and get the most non geeky mug possible:)

It would be a talking point at least.

One for Counterstrike geeks, the Heckler & Koch mug !

Brilliant link - those posters are superb!

"Delusions
There is no greater joy than soaring high on the wings of your dreams, except maybe the joy of watching a dreamer who has nowhere to land but in the ocean of reality."

you can get those that plug into a usb port and keep the mug and contents hot. geeks may like that idea.

Can't see that working somehow; maximum power available from a USB port is just 2.5W, and surely no geek would want to violate that spec just to keep his coffee hot?

On the other hand, a modern CPU draws close to 100W which should be plenty to actually make the coffee in the first place - combined PC and coffee maker, anybody? :D

The vi mug is always a geek favourite.

Once you get your mug, you'll need somewhere to rest it!

USB mug warmer ;)

To go with your coffee - fits into a 5 1/4" drive bay :D

Rich, I thought that was going to be a link to the famous HelpDesk story about the user who phones up to say the cupholder on his PC was broken :)

Anywhere that I can get a photo printed on a mug for her-indoors xmas?

That could be enough for your 2nd Geek of the Week award Steve :)

As you're in IT, I would have to go with either Dilbert or The Far Side (can't find a decent link for them).

Sorry Brendan ;)

Here you go then ;)
