Brought to You by The Unemployed Philosophers Guild The origins of the Unemployed Philosophers Guild are shrouded in mystery. Some accounts trace the Guild’s birth to Athens in the latter half of the 4th century BCE. Allegedly, several lesser philosophers grew weary of the endless Socratic dialogue endemic in their trade and turned to crafting household implements and playthings. (Hence the assertions that Socrates quaffed his hemlock poison from a Guild-designed chalice, though vigorous debate surrounds the question of whether it was a “disappearing” chalice.) Others argue that the UPG dates from the High Middle Ages, when the Philosophers Guild entered the world of commerce by selling bawdy pamphlets to pilgrims facing long lines for the restroom. Business boomed until 1211 when Pope Innocent III condemned the publications. Not surprisingly, this led to increased sales, even as half our membership was burned at the stake. More recently, revisionist historians have pinpointed the birth of the Guild to the time it was still cool to live in New York City’s Lower East Side. Two brothers turned their inner creativity and love of paying rent towards fulfilling the people’s needs for finger puppets, warm slippers, coffee cups, and cracking up at stuff.

Dinotastic Obviously you are buying this mug for the heat sensitive aspect of the design and that works wonderfully. My coworkers love seeing the dino skins disappear and the skeletons reveled so it’s a great conversation starter. Another added bonus of heat sensitive design is that you can visually tell if your coffee has cooled off. It should be noted that it is a wide mug and will not fit in a typical mug warmer. I use a wider candle warmer instead. The mug is ceramic so it will not survive a fall…
So i knew this was perfect for him My co worker is a dinosaur fanatic! So i knew this was perfect for him. I would NOT put this in the dishwasher as it says on the bottom. It is a little difficult to read since its so small. Just a reminder to all! It does take a little time for it to disappear but thats because the mug is adjusting to the change in temperature.
Amazing large coffee mug! Great large coffee mug. This is the best heat sensitive transforming mug I’ve found. It was a trooper. The visual effect lasted for over 2 years before it stopped working. And at this point it sits in between the cold and heated state at room temp. When heated it goes through the whole transformation.
