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.

I gave it three stars because I really love the idea of the mug I gave it three stars because I really love the idea of the mug, and I was so excited to get it. For some reason, this mug came in a separate package than the other mug I purchased at the same time from the company. The Wonder Woman mug came in just a padded envelope, no protection at all. And as you can see from the pictures, I won’t be able to use the mug.Makes me sad because the E.A. Poe mug was perfect and in a box with protection. Not sure why they wouldn’t do it with this one.
My experience with this product is exceedingly poor and I cannot recommend it to anyone else Cute design and the sizing is theoretically just right, but I found it completely unusable since it’s impossible (or perhaps just foolhardy) to try to drink beverages out of a pile of shards. My experience with this product is exceedingly poor and I cannot recommend it to anyone else.
Love it, but paint chipping after just a couple months I love this mug. Hand wash this mug. Make sure this mug doesn’t crack into anything else. Because I LOVE IT. But it’s chipping already in a few spots – the paint is coming off and revealing just plain red mug underneath. This saddens me immensely, because in case I didn’t mention it, I LOVE THIS MUG.
