| Aug 9 at 21:19 | comment | added | RonJohn | @Fe2O3 Mugs are always full. Except in space and the best vacuum chambers. And I gave an explicit reason why I think you're incorrect: there's nothing to stop show mugs, trophy mugs and themed mugs from being properly glazed, difficult to stain or hold heat well. (TBF, "show mug" is a bit ambiguous: did you get it from a trade show -- and thus be good for drinking coffee -- or is it only for showing off?) | |
| Aug 9 at 20:24 | comment | added | user618322 | @RonJohn Thanks for your feedback. Seems you might be a "mug only ever gets to be half full" kinda guy; not predisposed to granting leeway... For example, any "decorative mug" (top voted suggestion) made be serviceable or not. Any object's ultimate use may not align with the gift givers' intent. How many "artworks" are on display in the cupboards, attics and garages of recipients? Doesn't matter. The fun's gone... | |
| Aug 9 at 19:03 | comment | added | RonJohn | Most of these possibilities would only be correct if they actually were show mugs, trophy mugs or themed mugs. OP does not indicate that. Besides, there's nothing to stop show mugs, trophy mugs and themed mugs from being properly glazed, difficult to stain or hold heat well. Thus, -1 answer. | |
