Fun mug!

This mug is fantastic.There is this medic that I work with named Chris, and he had a bad call the other day, so we were talking about it, he was a little upset, and i noticed that he was drinking coffee out of this generic mug from some eye doctor place. I thought ya know what, that is a lame coffee mug, let me fix that, so I came here to amazon. When I found this mug, I knew I had found exactly what I was looking for; it is exactly him, he is a little bit of a Type A personality, and most medics are, but trust me, you WANT them to be..and along with with that, he is a bit jaded and a bit of a turn wit. Really good guy - just don't tick him off- exactly like Shakespeare - which is exactly why this mug is perfect for him.So I gave him this mug and he absolutely adored it! It has phrases like :Thou art a boil, a plague sorefoot-lickerfalse of heart, light of ear, bloody of handit's just intelligent, funny, and attractive.As far as being a coffee mug goes, it's 16 oz, so it seems to be standard size, and it looks exactly like it does in the pictures : standard mug with a handle.It is a really good mug like I said he loved it, I love it, he has been using it at work and everyone has been laughing about it and using the phrases, so it has been a conversation piece. Just great.I purchased this product at full price, and this review is honest and accurate.

I got this for myself after being involved in the crew of Something Rotten at my local community college. It just made me laugh and I thought it would be perfect for mornings. And it is! Shakespeare is always more clever than I when needing to come up with a clever insult for someone. It keeps my coffee hot and makes me laugh first thing in the mornings, when I am not feeling so human. Highly recommend for anyone who loves reading and or performing in the Bards plays!

Funny mug! I love reading the insults. My family and I play a game where we read out the insult and then try to match the play, act and scene! It's a lot of fun. One note about it (a slight downside) is that it is really wide (probably to enable all that text to fit). So, it's sort of a short, fat mug. It doesn't fit into a car holder, for example. So don't expect to set this down in a car cup holder. But other than that, it's great for the house. I should also mention that we've washed it for months and none of the lettering has peeled off.

Got this for my teen two years ago as a bday present (in 7th grade). They like it. Then started to love it as they would use these insults on rude and obnoxious classmates to my teen's delight and also the delight of many of her teachers. The teachers typically don't allow insults and the such, but when it's from Shakespeare they are smiling and encouraging. Now my teen happens to be really into Shakespeare and loves the mug even more. We kind of got it for them to hopefully spark an interest in Shakespeare (what teen doesn't like a good insult?) and hopefully help to throw some shade on those obnoxious classmates. The mug is also very sturdy, large, and keeps the content pretty warm. It also looks very nice with the different fonts. If there was a second one with more insults or with famous lines from the plays or famous lines just from Hamlet or MacBeth or Romeo & Juliet, etc. we'd probably own a full set by now. Highly recommend this!
