So you got to see my mug yesterday (my #selfieart), but today you’ll see my other mugs. Yup: my favorite cups to enjoy tea with.
From left to right:
the funky mug my sister Monica bought for me at Granville Island, Vancouver;
a mug made by potter Ruth Conway, the spouse of one of hubby’s colleagues;
an awesome retro cup my friend Tom found on eBay for me;
and a big honking mug made by the Unemployed Philosophers’ Guild…I love it for the equations on the mug (and the fact that you can’t see tea stains on it), but hubby told me that they got the Fourier Transform wrong. It’s actually the inverse Fourier transform. Yes, I did email them; and, they replied thanking me for letting them know, but I don’t think they ever changed it…probably because what does it matter when it’s likely that less than 5% of the world’s population would recognize the error, and .01% of that 5% would consider buying this mug.
These are much more fun and useful mugs than my face! 🙂
🙂 cute take on mugs

Now you are talking! I’m a fan of mugs myself. My Wisconsin Public Ratio mug was my all-time favorite (alas, it cracked in half: http://livingstoncontent.com/2013/03/02/my-heart-has-broken-there-is-no-mending/ ). These are my other two favorite mugs, one, a proper communist: http://livingstoncontent.com/2015/02/19/my-new-mug-is-a-proper-communist/

Your mug is fun and useful in a different way. One can never have too many mugs, which one you use depends on your mood at the time.

I use my mug to put fear into the kids’ hearts…hah! Okay, that was only when they were toddlers. 😉 I mostly alternate between these 4. The others I resort to only if I absolutely have to. I do love the one you gave me the most (don’t tell Tom!). 😀

So there is no minus sign in front of the 2 pi i?
Your mugs are awesome! But your face is way more useful. Seriously :-). And all those little muscles in your face… loads of fun!

I was a math major a long time ago. But I don’t usually use anything more complicated than high school math (for measuring the volume of a trapezoidal piece of butter). I googled the Fourier transform :-).

That sounds so cute! I don’t have any rulers from 5th grade, but I still had pencils from the 7th grade. 😀 My dad bought us a pack to use and we never did for whatever strange reason. I finally donated them this year…I figured 40 year old pencils don’t go bad, right? LOL!

:-D. I don’t think they go bad. I bought a bunch of pretty patterned pencils in the 5th grade I never used. Too pretty. I ended up donating them a few years ago in their too pretty to use pencil case.
