Waking up at 5 a.m., you walk downstairs to the kitchen to investigate a strange noise. In your stupor, you fail to bring your bedside gun with you, leaving yourself unarmed to face the potential threat.
You enter the kitchen, turn on the overhead lights and are confronted by a lone intruder. He thrusts an object in your face and shouts “Milk or sugar?”
Fortunately, it was just your roommate brewing up a mug of joe, served in the Gun Mug from thinkgeek.com. This unique beverage conveyance has a ceramic cup portion with a handgun-esque handle for added purchase and panache.
“The Gun Mug was just something that we saw and thought was pretty cool, so we decided to give it a shot (no pun intended),” said thinkgeek’s PR Manager/Righteous Dude Shane Peterman. “It’s received a great response so far from the public, selling better than we thought it would.”
Retailing for $11.99 plus shipping, the Gun Mug has proved so popular, it is out of stock at press time, but thinkgeek.com is expecting a rapid delivery of new inventory. The next time you hear about an early morning mugging, don’t rush to conclusions. It might have been a surprise delivery of café latte.
