Abercrombie and Fitch
A popular clothing store with a target audience of upper-middle class white teens and college students, 14-25. A+F competes with similarly targeted clothing stores such as American Eagle, The Gap, and Old Navy. Despite it's popularity and controversial marketing tactics, Abercrombie and Fitch is still regularly beaten by Old Navy in sales. Abercrombie and Fitch are highly controversial for the image attached to the name and for their suspect business practices. The image attached to A+F clothing tends be regarded as either: elite, sexy, expensive, suggestive of money and status, and popular; or mindless, racist, elitist, shallow, and depraved, depending on viewpoint. Abercrombie and Fitch has come under numerous lawsuits for alleged racism and discrimination in their hiring and marketing tactics. Furthermore, A+F's marketing is extremely skillful with psychological manipulation. The stores are equipped with looped advertisments running non-stop in back areas, designed for maximum saturation of propaganda, and affect multiple senses at once with constant spritzing of their trademark fragrance, loud, pulsing music, offsetting lighting and visual propaganda, and availble tactile stimulation. These are all coupled with heavy sexual imagery (to compound the point, the music played is also inductive of sexuality). Much of the marketing tactics of A+F border on or directly resemble fascist (particularly Nazist with the excessive elitism and alleged racism) indoctrination techniques. Along with Hollister Co., which is owned by the same company and employs identicle tactics, the stores are often viewed as cultish because of their heavy propaganda and the apparent mindlessness often associated with those who shop at A+F. The youth targeted and often excessive sexuality of A+F propaganda gives A+F an image of depravity not shared with other similar stores such as American Eagle (excepting Hollister Co. which again, is very similar to A+F). While overly gross generalizations are often made of people who shop at A+F, the cultish image created by A+F and the zealot nature of some A+F supporters, as well as the frequency with which the stereotypes are accurate refect poorly on the overall group who shop there. Much of A+F's tactics can be seen in fascist philosophy.
The Urban Dictionary Mug
My friend saw the message on the cup ordered at a mutual friends house. We think it’s hilarious so had to put it on a coffee cup. Funny, great Christmas present. If she can’t use in public she can always use at home for pens and pencils on her desk!
Bought the "Bump Down" mug for my boyfriend, he thought it was the greatest and couldn't believe I'd actually found something with the phrase on it!
Great mug but i can't manage to get it out of my asshole again
First heard the term “Cheddar Headed” from the song Feel Good by the Gorillaz. Had to look it up and found the definition hilarious and at times very true! So......had to have it! Took it to work and it definitely made an impression. Hahaha!
This was purchased as a gift , and it describes the recipient perfectly . It arrived sooner than expected, and I am very impressed with the quality .
The mug I ordered was exactly as described on the site. The shipping was fast as well. I will buy from these people again.
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.
