:3
At first glance, the colon-three emoticon appears innocuous and quaint - a simple cat-like smile. However, beneath its facile form lies multilayered semiotic significance and implications of textual play. The asymmetry between its innocent visage and the hints of deeper meaning evokes theorists of postmodern irony. Upon transmission, ":3" enters dialogic relations that imbue it with contextual valence beyond its basic denotation. It signifies through apophasis - expressing more through what is not directly referenced or stated. The smirk underscores an ambivalence between genuineness and jest that reflects the problematics of virtual communication analyzed by Landow or Turkle. Whether intended sincerely or in jest, the sender relinquishes a measure of interpretive control to the receiver. Thus ":3" emerges as a Derridean trace - always deferred and differing according to the positions and preunderstandings that interlocutors bring. The ":3" holds the ambivalent potential for cheeky subversion and sly subtweeting, all while maintaining an outward appearance of childish naivety. When others see you sending ":3" they know you are thinking on a higher level and reading between the lines. It is the emoji for the woke and aware.
The Urban Dictionary Mug
Cute mug, arrived promptly in great condition. I like how you can choose background color & change wording. Will feel cheerful when drinking my coffee in this :)
Heavenly Mug This mug has been sent from the heavens. I'm too broke to buy it. But one day... I will. I will be mugged, dammit!
Why am I here? I don't know how I got here, but I can't stop writing weird things on the cup...😅 Help me. I have a test to study for. A family. Also, if I wasn't broke I would buy 10,000 of these mugs. They look highly entertaining. Love this website, and I probably will fail the test. 🙃
I took time designing it but wasn't sure, online tools being what they are, that what I was seeing was for sure what I'd get. Very much appreciated the customer service communication which verified that what I'd designed was what I wanted, and the shipping was quick too.
Item came on time as promised
Came within a week and it's exactly what I ordered, my friend will love it!
Sus cup I bought the sus mug for the sus king Daequan
Good quality, packaging shipped well, arrived quickly.
My mug came in broken but Urban Dictionary replaced it at no extra charge!
Excellent mug excellent service
this is the best for coffee and hot coco especially if you make the hot coco in it then pour it on your significant other and do body shots 😋🥱

I can pass away peacefully. This mug is everything I’ve ever needed and more. Fat thank you, Urban Dictionary. <3

I was really excited to receive this mug and when it did come it was perfect quality. My only complaint is that the color I choose was green teal but it came in yellow.
As always, easy to order and not-too-long of a wait for the finished product to arrive. It’s well-printed, and very sturdy. A great gag present for wedding party members.
The mug , color and saying are perfect! PMEO is what I say at work everyday. It has become a favorite saying for my coworkers when things go haywire!
Quality and style are outstanding relative to price point.
Love it! It is my favorite mug. Easy to hold because of its shape and weight. Now my go-to mug.
My wife is truly beautiful and this cup was perfect for her.
Awesome mugs! My GF laughed her ass off, lol!!!
