The history and development of the beverage that we know as coffee is varied and interesting, involving chance occurrences, political intrigue, and the pursuit of wealth and power. According to one story, the effect of coffee beans on behavior was noticed by a sheep herder from Caffa Ethopia named Kaldi as he tended his sheep. He noticed that the sheep became hyperactive after eating the red "cherries" from a certain plant when they changed pastures. He tried a few himself, and was soon as overactive as his herd. The story relates that a monk happened by and scolded him for "partaking of the devil's fruit." However the monks soon discovered that this fruit from the shiny green plant could help them stay awake for their prayers. Another legend gives us the name for coffee or "mocha." An Arabian was banished to the desert with his followers to die of starvation. In desperation, Omar had his friends boil and eat the fruit from an unknown plant. Not only did the broth save the exiles, but their survival was taken as a religious sign by the residents of the nearest town, Mocha. The plant and its beverage were named Mocha to honor this event. Originally the coffee plant grew naturally in Ethopia, but once transplanted in Arabia was monopolized by them. One early use for coffee would have little appeal today. The Galla tribe from Ethiopia used coffee, but not as a drink. They would wrap the beans in animal fat as their only source of nutrition while on raiding parties. The Turks were the first country to adopt it as a drink, often adding spices such as clove, cinnamon, cardamom and anise to the brew. Coffee was introduced much later to countries beyond Arabia whose inhabitants believed it to be a delicacy and guarded its secret as if they were top secret military plans. Transportation of the plant out of the Moslem nations was forbidden by the government. The actual spread of coffee was started illegally. One Arab named Baba Budan smuggled beans to some mountains near Mysore, India, and started a farm there. Early in this century, the descendants of those original plants were found still growing fruitfully in the region. Coffee was believed by some Christians to be the devil's drink. Pope Vincent III heard this and decided to taste it before he banished it. He enjoyed it so much he baptized it, saying "coffee is so delicious it would be a pity to let the infidels have exclusive use of it." Coffee today is grown and enjoyed worldwide, and is one of the few crops that small farmers in third-world countries can profitably export.

I was walking to my annual palate's class and some asked me “what colors your Bugatti” I looked this up in confusion and came across this wonderful mug🥰. Best decision I’ve made since divorcing my husband Harold. I now have a black Bugatti.
its been a hard year for a lot of us with covid and divorces and honestly its just been a lot for me. I recently went through a breakup with Greyson and i was looking for a gift to get myelf to cheer me up. Thats when i stumbled on this beauty. Its sleek and modern design is just fabulous. It just what I needed to get through the year. Thank you James!!!
After my divorce i hardly found anything to get me through the day. I was looking to buy some used socks on the internet for the thrill but i bumped into a website made my young adults. I had such a hard time understanding their slang that I almost busted into tears. In the hopes of not being scammed, I decided to Google every single word that I couldn’t quite put my finger on. After surfing through urban dictionary, it didn’t take long enough for me to fall in love with the entire concept and spend more than 90% of my day-to-day life on the website. From dirty words to actual explanations urban dictionary, made me complete and almost made me forget about my divorce. Fuck you, Susan, urban dictionary took your place. Suck on my educated toes. I bet you don’t know what a reckwhore means. LG Benjamin 10/10

As a Jolology major, I love my new mug!
It was for a friends 70th b-day. When we order it, it was going to come 2 day after the party. But we were so excited it came 3 days before his party. It was a big hit. Thank you.
I gave it as a gift and the recipient loved it. No indication where it was made, so maybe USA? That would be really nice, if so.
I appreciated the email asking if the content was correct. Excellent quality and attention to detail. Thank you!
its an incredible mug! i would recommend purchasing this awesome product!
Damonism and #Stolen Valor Coffee Mug These coffee mugs are rugged, solid, high quality and keep the liquids hotter, longer. The definitions of both mugs are spot-on! I will definitely by more. Great work Urban Dictionary!
why is this a real thing? AND YA'LL ACTING LIKE IT'S NORMAL!?
I really like the mug, but I thought I had ordered the all pink one. What came was a white with a block of pink with "Fubar" written on it.
the only reason why i care about humanity this mug is the reason why i believe humanity deserves a second chance, even after they blaspheme my name. this mug is the greatest thing i've ever seen and i have ordered many of them. this mug replaces the holy grail. the bible should've told about the wonderful deeds of the mug and how it saved humanity from my wrath. alas, whilst the laws keep me from tampering with human minds and altering holy objects like the bible, i can only pass on my message: "spread the news and buy this mug!"
