Pom
The first written reference to the English being referred to as Pommies (Poms) is contained in letters written from the front lines and trenches of France in 1916. A traditional French insult for the English is “**pomme de terre avec le visage d'un cochon d’inde**” “Potato with the face of a Guinea pig” Shortened to simply “Pomme de Terre” “Potato” because the French considered the English, dirty, boring and common. The Australian Soldiers who shared the French Soldiers dislike for the English Officers, but could not speak French, adopted the first word from those derogatory phrases “Pomme” or “Pommes” Mispronounced, initially, as Pommy or Pommies (possibly due to the spelling Pomme being read as Pommie). Then shortened to Pom. Pom does not mean Prisoner of Mother England. It does not mean Pomegranate. It has nothing to do with Pom-poms. It means Potato. Substantiated by letters from 1916. And the fact the French, themselves, have long referred to the English as “Potato”. If you call someone a Pom, you are calling him a “potato”.

very good product, i drink my coffee out of it every single morning. a tiny little itty bitty problem i have with it though, is that every time i drink anything except for coffee out of this mug it barrates me for having bad taste. makes me very sad, honestly. i didnt know cups could talk, but appearently i have been proven wrong. i would really appreciate it if you could start double checking if your cups are possesed by melicous spirts who like to insult you! except for that, great product!!
The workmanship of the product was excellent, and packaging for your delivery of this fragile item, a coffee mug, was appropriately safe. Nice job all around. Thank you.
It's the best mug in the history of mugs.
love it
excellent customer service. i gave the wrong address and they got it here quick.
This was easy to order although I wish the preview pics showed the next on both sides once you finish customizing. But I appreciated that if the text doesn't fit they email you and ask what you want it to say. Came out great and I can't wait to give it as a gift
it was frickin good mug i liked it it was good I have never thought of myself as someone who drinks from mugs. After I drank from this mug, I thought of myself as a mug-drinker. It was magical. My entire life changed. I didn't know what to do with myself anymore. How do you follow up a lifestyle change? I went on a long walk. About 67 miles. Once I got to the Walgreen's I realized I could've just drove. But I didn't. I'm no quitter. Not with this mug. This mug gives me power, perseverance. You want this mug. Trust me. You want this mug.

I love How I can order a cup with one of my favorite words
Well printed, the mug's ceramic is of good quality, I'm not sure what else I can add. I am surprised it could be printed and shipped so quickly based on my earlier experience printing/kiln-firing/baking this kind of product. Well done.
Sent to a friend. He loved it!
I can't stop putting weird things on the cup I love this website 😆
Purchased this for my fiancé. One night watching TV, she blurted out the word "kaputnik." We laughed so hard. Never dreamed it was an actual word. Now, we know better. LOL
Sent a mug with DABNABIT printed on it to my Grandaughter for her birthday! She absolutely was thrilled with it! This is a saying I’ve used over the years a lot & we’ve always laughed about it! Ordered myself one too!!
Best mug I've ever seen honestly
looks great, came quickly, exactly as I wanted. minor observation - the coffee mug was a bit smaller than I expected. The mug is normal size, but most of my mugs tend to be a bit larger. No matter. I still enjoy it!! Perfect would have been larger - but that I my preference.
Bought this mug as a joke, the concept of there being a "magical one" was very funny to me. Great quality, I even feel magical myself.
Perfect!!
My nut hurts my nut hurts help
i bought this mug for my classmate and he likes it since its his crush name
