fujinoname Mug
In general, fujinoname refers to an item or product of (perhaps stereo-)typically Asian origin but lacking any true name brand quality, respectablility, name-recognition, etc. Although it might be safe to assume that even a fujinoname item is still of superior quality to the same type item from Upper Slobovia, etc. In most cases, someone just went to where they could get something made for the lowest price resulting in the highest markup and profit for themselves. And to many consumers a type of Asian 'quality' will be perceived even if not actually present. Sometimes the name might be chosen to seem familiar but it's really not, in an attempt to generate perceived quality. An exaggerated example of this can be found in the Simpsons episode where Homer and Marge go to the outlet mall to buy a new TV set. They find 'brand names' such as Magnetbox and Sorny. In some cases, even a 'name brand' item might be truly a fujinoname if it was made by someone else and just has the name brand label on it for marketing purposes. Tandy/Radio Shack, for example, doesn't really make a lot of products. People who paid attention in the past might have noticed that many items sold in Radio Shack stores were identical to items that could be found in other places bearing names such as Pioneer. I have a small "Emerson" TV in the bedroom that I've also seen marketed under names such as Funai. Same item, different name. (Not that either Emerson or Funai is a big-deal brand name, but that isn't the point.) Sometimes they don't even bother putting the 'brand name' on remote controls for such items because it saves relabeling costs. Many such items are made in generic factories all over the world and simply labeled with whatever name is being used to put them into Wal-Mart stores or whatever. And even if the factory is actually in Upper Slobovia, the item can still be a 'fujinoname' for our purposes.

I bought a Prone mug and i love it its so good imma prone to the bathroom now brb
This mug gives my life purpose. It's what I've always said. Patience is a virtue and hard work never betrays. Ever since I was born I've been struck with one misfortune after another, but today it all paid off. I got my own mug, and I use it anywhere and whenever I can! Both of my legs are shattered because to my wife threw me in the middle of traffic and my windpipe is messed up due to me screaming all the way from the crash site to the hospital thanks to the unbearable pain I was feeling. Although even with all that's happened this is still the best day of my life. I suppose the only problem I have is that whenever I happen to look at my cup I get a little too happy. That causes problems because my life support can't handle my exhilaration, haha! I'm just kidding; that was just a little lighthearted joke of mine. I actually cannot afford life support because I spent all of my life savings on this fine piece of pottery. Not to worry though! I can get through the pain with my will and drugs - I mean medication. P.S. There are definitely no ghosts in the mugs. Just wanted to point that out in case someone was worried about that.
I bought two mugs as gifts for coworkers and they were very pleased. The print was clear and concise. Hopefully they last a long time.
Ordered a gift for a friend I hope he likes it :)

My Name is Walter Hardwell White, My Mug was sent to 308 Negra Aroyal Lane, AQ, New Mexico and arrived on-time and I am very satisfied. My "Glock Dookie" mug is great for my lab work, and my friend Pinkman loves it!
I love this cup! My now ex-husband loves his opioids more than life itself. He would constantly pass out dead to the world the only thing I would here was his death moans. I had to call an aid car for him so many time that I can't remember plus 2 or 3 times the doctors told me that if it wasn't for me, he would have died. Her abandoned me after I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer because I was of no use to him any longer. I have no clue now who must be the one that's obligated to save his life any longer. All I know is I'm free from him now. The only thing I'm waiting for is that he finally overdoses himself & he's dead. I am buying a cup to send to him for our divorce anniversary gift so he can keep it in memory of how he treated me.
I loved it! Excellent quality!
I received the mug as a gift from a friend with whom I exchange "Weekaversary" eMails. I love the concept but am wondering why "aniversary" is spelled with only one "n?"
Wish it had the example text as well, but I loved it anyway
It’s great to be able to create your own mug.
