i before e
A more complete rule is: "i" before "e" except - after "c", - in words where it sounds like long "a", or - in words that are weird or foreign, - and scientific words often do not follow the rules. "i" goes before "e" in words like the following: believe, chief, field, niece, relief, sieve, and yield. Some exceptions containing the long "a" are the usually-noted neighbor and weigh. Some more are: freight, vein, veil, geisha, sheik, and dreidel. The last three fall under the "foreign" clause even if you like to pronounce them with a long "e" sound. The word weird is weird. 'nuff said. The word foreign is, well, foreign. So are recent arrivals to the language, such as leisure and its ilk, from French*, and sheila, an Aussie slang word for "girl". The word science doesn't follow the original "except after-c" rule. And caffeine, codeine, protein, and other words with the "-eine" or "-ein" ending and a long "e" sound are other scientific exceptions in the other direction. * TheFreeDictionary notes that leisure comes from Middle English, from Norman French leisour, from Old French leisir meaning "to be permitted", from Latin licre. In terms of language, this is recent. At least, it is recent enough that the spelling has not changed to match the rule. Of course, you might be rightfully getting the impression that this rule is not much of a rule, given the hefty list of exceptions. But then again, this is the English language. 'nuff said.
The Urban Dictionary Mug
EEEEEEEEEEEEEHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA :))))))))
This was a phrase my husband and I made up even we first started dating. We laughed so hard while submitting it. The mug is perfect!
Urban Dictionary. Mixes truth with lies. Keeps a record. Thanks for the truthful parts, bro. 🙏💪✝️
I wish I had this mug I SOOOO wish I had this mug! I never find anything that has my name on it unless I have it custom made. I'm actually quite surprised that 'Lani' is on the Urban Dictionary... And the definition is pretty accurate ;)
really awesome mug I gave this mug as a secret Santa gift and and my cousin still uses it to this day. It is truly a awesome mug and it deserves 5 stars.

I LOVE GETTING THE FUCKING MUG
The wife absolutely loved it for her birthday
it was the best and it was so worth the 10000000000 dollars
Can we really send one to Trump? That's where mine is going. Anyone who gets it will see it as a compliment, I'm sure. Love my mug and love that new "urban dictionary" term: Celebritrash. It'll be in the mainstream dictionaries next week.
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!
