Boranj Mug
1. having the qualities of an inelegant iterative step that works but will eventually be replaced by something better. 2. of or like an evolutionary step. 3. having both functional and awkward qualities. 'boranj' is a study in the spread of ideas; an experiment in cultural evolution and idea (or meme) penetration. We want to see if and how a word can spread from nothing into ubiquitous acceptance, so we created 'boranj.' This was based on the idea that 'whatever the next big thing is, it should rhyme with orange,' since orange is commonly the first word native English speakers think of as rhyme-less. While at it, it aims to be the first common English word to end with a 'j.' While boranj clearly has a gimmick to help it spread, in order for it to catch on, it must also be meaningful. We initially had trouble defining boranj - it's an awkward word, and realized that maybe someone will come up with a better definition later. But this is true of any idea: whatever the current best is, will be eventually replaced by something else. Nothing is ever done; we are part of a continuing process of evolution. This became our definition. As a lifestyle it is freeing: boranj makes it easier to release ideas before they are perfect, by reminding us that they never will be. We hope to watch boranj grow in use slowly over time, and have built data tracking (shown below) to track the specific spread of the meme of boranj. It is the first word where every single use on the internet is tracked and analyzed in time and space, yielding a true etymological history. The goal is acceptance of boranj into a mainstream dictionary. Will boranj catch on, or will boranj fade away? Boranj is the realization that nothing is the best, it is just good enough for now. Use 'boranj' in your blog. Sign your emails with 'boranj.' Please spread the word, literally!

wow! this mug is so thoughtful to giving to my wife!
The description tells nothing but facts. 5 stars instant
Your description is right on, except in 1989 I named my daughter Kallen Mikel (www.kallenmikel.com/original-art). I thought I made up the name, but apparently, it originated as a boy's name in Greek and Hebrew. I first found this out in 2001 when I was traveling to Finland. In the 'tube food' section in a big Finnish supermarket there it was, a royal blue tube of salmon paste with a blonde-haired boy named Kallen! So now I have discovered that there are many Kallen's of both sexes. I want to buy her a cup, but it has 'him' on it. Is there any way you can make that a unisex description for both sexes? Just askin'. Being a Barbara (Barbs) myself ... a 'cake eater' from Edina, MN I had to ask ... haha ;-)
Thank you for the mug. It arrived fast and exceeded my expectations.
