Jan 4 2008Mug Displays The Way You Like Your Brew
The Drink Selector Mug ($24) is a receptacle for hot liquids that has three metal bands around it. The top band is turned to indicate if you prefer coffee or tea. The second band indicates your milk preference (breast, etc.), and the third your sugar. Now I don't know how things are done in other offices, but here I have to make my own damn coffee. Which is actually a good thing, because my coworkers don't really like me. The last time I did get a fellow employee to bring me a mug I'm pretty sure it was urinated in. Now call me crazy, but I like my coffee the same way I like my women -- with no penis involved. So I make it myself, sans dong. Okay, maybe just to stir in the milk.
Drink Selector Mug ensures a perfect brew, every time [dvice]

Damn, I'm glad your not on strike Geekologie. You make me laugh so fucking hard everyday...just like the girls when they see my penis.

that's actually a pretty.... dumb idea
by the time you rotate all your sh*t here and there no one will be left standing to get you anything!

I can only see this being effective in a coffee place where you hand the mug and they give you coffee. Now there's a few things with this:
1) I think it's easier to write with permanent marker if you like it the same way every time.
2) They usually only give coffee, you have to get the cream and sugar yourself.
3) I guess it could work for deaf-mute folks, or those who are extremely antisocial.
4) Otherwise, I see no practical use for this garbage, unless they include instructions to do what the mug says first, then (whilst hot) try to change the bands)...a game, if you will.

I like my coffee like I like my women too; tied up in a burlap sac & slung over the back of a mule!

I like my coffee like I like my women too: in plastic bags, in the freezer.

Loved this to bits. Hate the girly trad of 'cup of tea in the morning'. Get a proper job so that you can at least look busy.

I like my coffee like I like my women - black, with a prune danish on the side
