Not today, Satan, not today Mug
This saying, popular among Southern Church Ladies probably since there were Southern Church Ladies, both black and white, as well as many Abuelas across Latinx culture. It is derived from a New Testament Bible verses, specifically in the Book of Matthew, Ch16: v.23 and is a rebuke of Peter "“Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns.” (KJV) Peter has disavowed knowledge of Jesus to the Centurions because he's feared for his own life. So, Jesus sees him as a great betrayer, an obstacle in his way. The phrase can also be attributed to Jesus' response to the Third Temptation in the Desert in Matt. Ch. 4:v.10 "Away from Me, Satan!" Jesus declared. "For it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.'" "Not today, Satan, not today" is the American vernacular translation of "Get the Behind me, Satan," and is a rebuke of any obstacle that can get in our way, telling it to get out of the way because we have bigger and better things to do. On the 70s TV series "Sanford and Son" the character of Aunt Esther has used the phrase. It did not originate with Bianca Del Rio on RuPaul's Drag Race in 2015. More than likely she heard it from abuelas or others in the drag community. The title of Jordan Peele's 2022 movie "NOPE" alludes to this, as one might say "Nope, not today, Satan." Knowing this helps clarify a key question about the film's ending. Thank you Jordan Peele.

Ok it’s a mug drink from it act edgy with it who cares
This was a gift for my wife. She loves it.
The custom word and design came out perfectly, and my girlfriend absolutely adored the mug; I'll absolutely consider more custom-printed cups for birthdays and other occasions in the future.
Purchased this custom mug for my teenager, and they love it! The first comment was that the coffee stayed hot longer. Solid mug and the custom text isn't wearing ff after so many uses. Will definitely buy again.
The mug looks great and hasn't faded after multiple runs through the dishwasher. It microwaves well, and the text is sufficiently unruly.
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.
lmao n. definitely buy a sex mug
The custom mug was as described. The packaging was first rate, and the shipping was surprisingly fast.
