the triplets of belleville Mug
A totally brilliant animated film made by a French Canadian named Sylvain Chomet. Not meant to be taken seriously; a daydream. But an adult's daydream, so it can be gloomy, phantasmagoric and twisted, but also full of energy and life. Many people do not like it, because they cannot handle it. The plot, which is merely a framework that this crazy movie is built around, centers around a tiny old woman's love for Champion (Shahmp-yeeohn), her 20-something grandson. Her grandson came into her care when he was orphaned as a child, and he was depressed until she bought him a tricycle, which guided him to his true passion for cycling. The cartoon of him is highly caricatured, and he is quite passive and unemotional, except for his enormous gray-rimmed eyes, which are extremely mournful. But this is only because his nature is quiet and he is very focused on his bicycle training. He enters the Tour de France, and becomes exhausted while biking through a premilimary moutain phase in 90-degree heat. He goes into what he thinks is a broom van (a van that picks up exhausted riders), and is too depressed to notice anything other than the two wheezing cyclists inside the van in front of him. He certainly doesn't notice that the van is being driven by two wardrobe-shaped men in black...French mafia thugs! They kidnap Champion and the two other bikers, put them aboard a huge ocean liner, and ship them to an imaginary city called Belleville. Belleville is not in America, nor is it in France, nor is it Montreal, Canada. It blends Montreal, Paris, and New York. Meanwhile, his courageous and devoted grandmother, Madame Souza, is stranded. Her tire has been punctured by tacks scattered by the black-gloved hand of a French mafia goon. But she is determined, and uses Champion's obese bloodhound, Bruno, as a wheel. (ASPCA people probably freaked out about that...) She sees Champion's beloved bicycle on the ground, abandoned, and hurries to the place where the broom vans converge. She finds his red baseball hat in one of them, and gives it to Bruno to sniff. Bruno is onto his scent immediately, and runs up to the ocean dock, just as the deafening blast of the liner's horn sounds as it pulls away. She crosses the Atlantic in a paddleboat, no less, and bumps into the Triplets of Belleville, an aged, once-famous singing trio of the twenties. They then set out to rescue Champion from the mafia. Good thing, too, because the mafia has plans for him that are so evil that you have to watch the movie to believe it! Throughout the movie Champion might not have any idea that he's been kidnapped, however...it's hard to tell from his expression.

gay mug very spicy
The Urban Dictionary is a unique place to find anecdotal memories on all sorts of stuff. Their ongoing communication once your order is placed is excellent. I have put in a significant number of orders recently, and the communication regarding my order status is excellent. I have had one order misplaced in transit. They have contacted me to say that they will get back to me, but to this point, they have not. So, that's a bit of a caveat in my rating. Overall, I would rate their products and customer service as good. I would not hesitate to deal with them in the future. Fill Your Boots with Whatever You Want to Order. Nice job, "Urban Dictionary."

My brother Tom became an uncle & urban dictionary created a wonderful uncle Tom mug…
It is special to have a mug that has to do with my dad who invented a word when we were growing up. He passed away last year. Drinking from this mug is like spending time with him.
Quick turnaround time and good quality merchandise.
very cool kanye for me gave it to my crush and now were dating so yea
I bought a Prone mug and i love it its so good imma prone to the bathroom now brb
This mug gives my life purpose. It's what I've always said. Patience is a virtue and hard work never betrays. Ever since I was born I've been struck with one misfortune after another, but today it all paid off. I got my own mug, and I use it anywhere and whenever I can! Both of my legs are shattered because to my wife threw me in the middle of traffic and my windpipe is messed up due to me screaming all the way from the crash site to the hospital thanks to the unbearable pain I was feeling. Although even with all that's happened this is still the best day of my life. I suppose the only problem I have is that whenever I happen to look at my cup I get a little too happy. That causes problems because my life support can't handle my exhilaration, haha! I'm just kidding; that was just a little lighthearted joke of mine. I actually cannot afford life support because I spent all of my life savings on this fine piece of pottery. Not to worry though! I can get through the pain with my will and drugs - I mean medication. P.S. There are definitely no ghosts in the mugs. Just wanted to point that out in case someone was worried about that.
I bought two mugs as gifts for coworkers and they were very pleased. The print was clear and concise. Hopefully they last a long time.
Ordered a gift for a friend I hope he likes it :)
Mug was well-packed when received. Shipping was timely. The mug was as advertised. Very nice.
BEST THING EVER. CUZ YK WHAT!!?!? IT. IS. A. MUG. WITH MY NAME. AND. A COOL DESCRIPTION. ON. IT. I LOVE IT.

My Name is Walter Hardwell White, My Mug was sent to 308 Negra Aroyal Lane, AQ, New Mexico and arrived on-time and I am very satisfied. My "Glock Dookie" mug is great for my lab work, and my friend Pinkman loves it!
I love this cup! My now ex-husband loves his opioids more than life itself. He would constantly pass out dead to the world the only thing I would here was his death moans. I had to call an aid car for him so many time that I can't remember plus 2 or 3 times the doctors told me that if it wasn't for me, he would have died. Her abandoned me after I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer because I was of no use to him any longer. I have no clue now who must be the one that's obligated to save his life any longer. All I know is I'm free from him now. The only thing I'm waiting for is that he finally overdoses himself & he's dead. I am buying a cup to send to him for our divorce anniversary gift so he can keep it in memory of how he treated me.
I loved it! Excellent quality!
