Concreature Mug
Noun: a person whose home is the city and was born and raised in the city. Someone who feels at home in the concrete jungle where everyone is anonymous. It reminded me of the text by Sara Ahmed: “Who Knows? Knowing Strangers and Strangerness’’ I have read while doing research on empathy. She says that anthropology allows the stranger to be familiar in its very strangerness. This is a really interesting sentence to me, especially the being familiar in its very strangeness part. Sometimes it feels good to be a stranger and be unfamiliar in a certain environment. To me, this feeling mostly occurs in the city, where people mostly are very anonymous and where people don’t know each other. You walk past so many different people, but you won’t ever get to know them. I know a lot of people that love this feeling of being anonymous and being a stranger in a huge population of a city. I would call these people concreatures, because their familiar environment is a place where they are a stranger to everyone around them and vice versa. These people are most of the time born in this concrete jungle, so they have conditioned themselves to this place and the people that are living in this place.

Had no idea my name had a definition!!
Bought for an inside joke. Perfect.
i love the schizophrenia mug its amazing
This cute mug reminded me of a quote from an obscure biography I found quite by accident in a tiny hole-in-the-wall 2nd hand shop in Portland, ME in 1987: 'The Life and Times of Lazarus of Bethany'. Quote: " We are all walking wounded held together by the scars of our forbearance and the charity of our sisters and brothers." Truer words have never been said.
Love it . Its me down to a T
unlike most mug customization, you can say whatever the fuck you want. Bravo!
i liked that the mug had my name on it and a funny definition, i will definitely buy some for my friends(with their names of course).
I bought it as sort of a gag gift for my son and his new girlfriend and they loved it
I haven't even bought it, it smells nice
nice quality, vivid image
What's funny is the saying that everyone searched for is the one that popped up on the cup. So all the weird gross sayings that people are commenting on are completely out of context to everyone seeing their comment.
I would buy a morbillion of these mugs.
Coffee is good with a banana (minus the Shimflins!)
It was a good gift

EVERY mug I have ordered online through Urban Dictionary has exceeded my expectations! Each (5) is of a very high quality: Clear/Clean printing (ink, color, sharpness, clarity), and Outstanding craftsmanship ("feels" good to hold, and you can tell it "ain't made cheap"). Your company should be proud, indeed.
love it
