TL
The Tenderloin (otherwise known as the "TL") neighborhood in San Francisco covers roughly 50 blocks and is perhaps the most densely populated part of the city. The area itself is bounded by Van Ness Avenue to the west, Market Street to the southeast, Taylor Street to the east, and Geary Boulevard to the north. Drugs, street prostitution, homelessness, and poverty are everyday realities which define this neglected neighborhood. Although the neighborhood itself is fiercely steeped in degradation the surrounding areas boast the highest rents in the entire city. You have Nob Hill to the Tenderloin's north, the Pacific Heights neighborhood to the west, and the Financial District directly to the east. The Tenderloin has historically been the gateway to more affordable housing for immigrants and other downtrodden types, but typically is a haven for the dispossessed. The origin of the name "Tenderloin" stems from the graft collected by the vice squad who patrolled the area, and who were thus able to buy the choicest cuts of beef. There are many other ideas for why the neighborhood was given this peculiar moniker, but regardless of the explanation they invariably tend to emphasize the neighborhood's seediness and depravity. Supposedly the neighborhood today is undergoing gentrification, but tell that to the crack dealers on the corner and they'll give you a befuddled look because they're mostly Spanish-speaking immigrants from South and Central American countries. But organizations--like rental kingpins Skyline Realty and their subsidiary Citiapartments--are attempting to "improve" the Tenderloin by buying out old apartment buildings, driving out the tenants, and raising the rents astronomically so that only people who can afford pure uncut cocaine can live in them. If this trend persists then the Tenderloin's boundaries may eventually contract to those 10 blocks that radiate from Market street and include St. Anthony's, Boedekker Park, Chez Paree, and the public toilet across from the New Century. God bless America.
The Urban Dictionary Mug
This mug was a Father’s Day gift for my dad, and let me tell you, it is the greatest mug ever produced by humankind. Not only does it have a simple, minimalist design on it with my father’s name, but also the witty definition on the back that perfectly describes him. While he only uses the mug to hold his pens, I’m sure it would act perfectly fine with any sort of beverage in it as well. Urban Dictionary, let my just tell you that you have sent me the finest piece of art I could have possibly asked to hand over to my dad. Thank you, and I’m sure I’ll be purchasing another one of these fine crafted mugs some time soon. To whoever is reading this, have a nice day, and enjoy your summer.
I bought this for my daughter and she absolutely loves it!
exactly what wanted, holds hot coffee excellent, am 'Hutty'!! that's funny
Used it for a family inside joke, very funny
Great mug! Customizing was great!
why i want this mug i want this mug because I LOVE JUDE :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
Great as a little joke gift! But a little on the pricey side for a coffee mug. If I didn’t love the person as much as I do, I would probably never spend that amount on a normal coffee cup.
It is perfect. I purchased the mug aa a gift and the recipient loved it!
It’s so good and can hold my coffee all day long !
My favorite mug ever
Small cup printing is well done.
It's perfect. Just what I thought I would be getting. Love the definition on one side and the "phrase" on the other.

The custom mug was as described. The packaging was first rate, and the shipping was surprisingly fast.
