americanized
In animation: Re-Written or re-edited to be suited with an American audience in mind. Contrary to popular myth, this does not mean making something worse. However, if something was never good to begin with, then the editing process may do a favor only in not glorifying activities which ought to be illegal all over the world indisputably. It protects all viewers (not just American children) from senseless, stupid glorification of pure evil. However, defending viewers from the shallowness and near-criminal perversion of the original incarnation does not promise that the edited end product will be good; only that it is less terrible, and therefore, more offensive to perverted snobs who think man-on-man porn should be viewed by toddlers - and then practiced on them! Americanization of foreign animation often does something to original content that is a dis-service: over-simplifying the themes of the original. The need to conform things to a very simplistic GI Joe vs. Mad Scientist/Neo-Nazis format is a narrative tradition that formed after WWII, and traces of it remain in American writing today as die-hards. In most anything else: Altering something foreign to the US to make it more practical and digestible to American consumers. (Or depending on what gets altered, making it more universally edifying or better suited to anyone anywhere with any ounce of self-respect.)
The Urban Dictionary Mug
The mug exceeded my expectations. Really excellent quality and build
Jim, you’re a fucking idiot interfering with accurate ratings and legitimate feedback. Get a hobby.
Great gift!
A little spendy, but worth it.
My wife kept talking about "ways out" being a Denver version of "psych" and she was right, so I got her this once I found it on UD. She loved it!
It's a great mug, will reccomend to family members my grandma gave me this mug for christmas and it was by far the best gift i got.
It arrived three weeks after ordering but given the holiday rush and inability of shipping to keep on schedule arrived late but was perfect little gift from me to my wife for her morning coffee with her "nickname" on the mug.
I liked the photo on your website and so I ordered the mug. You sent it right away, and it looks great!
Arrived carefully packaged
me and the boys when i get vodka mug
I ordered 3 of your mugs, with different names on them. There was a typo in the information about the name on the back of each of the mugs. This wasn’t a dealbreaker because the people who received them liked them. However, it would be nice if somebody who has basic proficiency in spelling English words could proofread the script for all of your names before they’re prepared.
Arrived on time. Great packaging. Communication with vendor was top-notch. High quality item.
I love it! Thanks! So
Great present for a retiring colleague with custom saying she's known for!
Loved this mug! So unique and you can edit the text to add something unique.
I gave it to my friend who took money from me and never returned.
I love the fact that I was able to customize my name since I've never been able to find anything with my name. The only downside is it's smaller than I thought it would be (I guess I didn't pay much attention to that), wish it was bigger, only about 10 oz total.
It's simply awesome; and plus, the word means a lot.
Really fast and looks great! Took a chance on Christmas gift and it was a success!
Awesome mug feels really nice good weight and color although I think the shade could be a little brighter when it comes to the highlighter yellow, I am still pleased with the outcome and the fact that a whole passage was so neatly printed onto the product, very pleased with the packaging too! That made it so easy to wrap just in time for Christmas. Who knew!!
