Never look a gifted horse in the mouth Mug
"Never look a gift horse in the mouth" or "long in the tooth" are both expressions we often hear but not quite comprehend what it really means. Many may interpret is as "don't question an intelligent person" or "don't question the value of a gift". The following are two types of meaning of the phrase. THE ETYMOLOGY MEANING: "Don't check his age." Traditionally, horsemen use teeth as a guide to determine the horse's age. This practice is not foolproof but many factors contribute when evaluating a horse's age. Deciduous teeth (milk teeth) are grown shortly after birth. They're paler and shorter than adult teeth. They gradually shed by the age of five and are replaced by permanent teeth with a concave surface which are larger and darker in colour. At the age of ten , the Galvayne's groove begins to appear and by the age of fifteen the groove would have reached half way down the tooth. When the horse reaches its mid twenties, the Galvayne's groove begins to disappear and entirely vanish, when they are old. IDIOM MEANING: a) Don't try to evaluate a gift b) be appreciative of a gift regardless whether it's big or small, instead of wanting something big and better. c) be grateful and accept what is given. d) don't question what is given to you, accept it as it is.

I had been looking for the translation from a Tik Tok video and found it on Urban Dictionary. I was surprised to find a coffee mug available so I ordered one. My order was processed very quickly. My mug arrived promptly and in perfect condition. Many Thanks
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.
