Gosu
Gosu is a Korean word that served as a corrupted interlocutor creating the acronym GOAT to mean greatest of all time. This occurred in 2000 at a professional Starcraft tournament at UC Berkeley hosted by the computer science department. The tournament champion was a player with the handle "goat" At the presentation of the Champion's cup the crowd started chanting "gosu! gosu!" which prompted started the following dialogue: Corporate Sponsor presenting Cup: "what does gosu mean?" CS Student Representative: not fluent it means like very talented. The best talent you can be. Corporate Sponsor: speaking to goat well you are certainly very talented. The best I have seen. And if you're the best at UC Berkeley you're probably the best in general. Can you tell us why your handle is goat? GOAT: goats are cool I guess. I was one of the first people on AOL and had the email address goat@aol.com. I wish I had kept it. Corporate Sponsor: Oh we thought it was an acronym Someone in Crowd: GREATEST OF ALL TIME! GOAT: And that too. UC Berkeley at that time had a T-3 line at a time people were using dial up. The technology was unprecedent for a University and was one of only three in the nation. (Federal Government, NASA). Thus, GOAT as an acronym became slang in the computer science department at Berkeley and Stanford before the creation of a meaningful internet culture
The Urban Dictionary Mug
Customer Reviews
This mug, much like a cursed relic unearthed from the depths of despair, embodies a cacophony of design flaws and manufacturing mishaps that make one wonder if it was birthed from the darkest corners of incompetence itself. From its deceptively promising exterior, which boasts a color scheme akin to a bruised banana left out in the sun for too long, to its handle that feels more like a medieval torture device designed to punish the unsuspecting hand that dares to grasp it, every aspect of this mug screams "regret." Its material, a sinister amalgamation of recycled nightmares and shattered dreams, leeches a flavor reminiscent of stale coffee mixed with the tears of disappointed souls into whatever liquid unfortunate enough to be poured within its cursed confines. The rim, jagged and uneven like the edge of a poorly forged blade, guarantees that each sip is a perilous journey fraught with the risk of lip lacerations and existential dread. And let us not forget the bottom of this vessel, where the manufacturer's logo is stamped with all the subtlety of a scarlet letter, branding the user as a victim of their own poor purchasing decisions for all eternity. Indeed, this mug serves as a stark reminder that sometimes, in the vast expanse of consumer goods, there exists a dark abyss where quality and utility fear to tread, leaving only disappointment and regret in their wake.
I think it’s funny and the quality is really good. Shipping was pretty fast too.
Sent this to my crush now she has a restraining order on me!!!
Without this mug, my life was but a series of painful unfortunate events. Since it has come into my life, love has followed, joy has followed and dishonour has been disavowed. Sincerely. From the bottom of my heart. Thank you. Please keep up the good work and I hope everyone will find joy as I have one day.
I spent the money and directly sent this to be the pettest person ever to a person who was doing this to me. It was awesome
Best purchase of my life, it's all downhill from here!
Excellent communication. Prompt service. Quality product.
Your company did an excellent job with our order. The beautiful mug with our son's word and definitions arrived in perfect shape, thanks to your outstanding box design! I have never seen a box so cleverly made. I cannot bring myself to recycle it;). The mug will be enjoyed for years to come. Many Thanks, Deborah Crosley Holland and Michael Holland

The thing is amazing. Also everything on the back is true!
Solid mug. Funny design. Fair price
My dad hits me with his mug. It's very very durable
This mug is great! It comes in perfect condition and I love that you can change the definitions! I put my name and then I put the definition as ‘the best person’. Made my day every time I picked it up.
Cup came in one piece and looks as nice as it does in the picture! Only note is just be mindful of any typos in the description of the definition, they will show up on the cup too! Other than that, no complaints!
These mugs are always good. I usually choose the neon green!
The mug is pretty and the writing on it is clear. It is of good quality and it makes me smile.
