Splib Mug
"Splib" was a widely-used term in the military in the Sixties, notably in WestPac (Western Pacific), for African-Americans during the Viet Nam era. As a African In America, Marine Corp Brat who grew up in the 60's and 70's on Camp Pendleton, El Toro, MCRD, Hawaii (Pearl City, Manana, Kaneohe, Camp Smith). "Splib" was used as a precursor to "Blood". "Splib" took it deeper than "Blood". As youngsters, the Soldiers we encountered would always refer to us as "Sup Splib" or "Young Blood". I recall in the late 60's and 70's, on a given day, how 8-10 of us youngsters, black, riding our bikes on base, when the Black Marines would see us from afar, they would raise their FISTS in the air towards us, we would stop riding, and raise our FISTS too, and keep riding, empowered and inspired! When the young Marine's would encounter us, they would call us "hey young splib" or "hey young blood", it was heartfelt, sincere and with love, they knew who we were and what we represented, our Fathers were like Hero's to them and us too. Sperm+Blood = Splib...Got it?....that's "Splib", deeper than just "blood"

Henceforth, I am unable to leave a negative review for this amazing cup.
Good quality, just as pictured. Very pleased with it!
Having my first cup of coffee in the new cup. Good idea to add new terms through individual contributions.
10/10 Looks exactly like the preview. Shipping was fast.
This is for my granddaughter whom I used to call cutie patootie until she found out another meaning for patootie. Then she didn’t like the name so much! This will be a perfect gift for her! She is 16.
Love the cups :) It reminds us of our sweet momma. I thought everyone knew the word "mommicked" but evidently it is an Eastern North Carolina thing...My sisters and I all married Northerner/ Yankees and they had never heard of the word. Thank you for a tender memory.
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!
This reminds me of the amazing teams i worked in!
great experience, with fast delivery. Thank you!
my grandma loved it!
My grandma is HOOKED

This mug makes me happy :) reminds me of so many funny high school memories!
The mug came quickly and we love it!
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.
Well madder nice print. 8 0z cup. I'd prefer a mug but will be ordering 3 more. Just my cuppa tea (or coffee). Americans always make fun of some of the things I say. Recently my brother and I were talking about the Trawna Maple Leafs. I decided to look it up and sure enough there is was Trawna the city I grew up in. Now who has the last laugh.
I ordered pink but got purple, and the text wasn't very clean, but overall, it is a mug.
It was a gift for my sister, who wrote it. She loved it and so did I!
pushin 🅿️ w this mug😩
