This is my favourite coffee mug…

Well? Say hello!

One may very well ask why it is my favourite coffee mug. One may say “Jeremy, while they hold the same quantity, you usually prefer the taller mugs where as this one is squat and fat… wouldn’t that immediately disqualify it from being your favourite coffee mug?”

And to this I would answer “Yeah, but…”

Ofcourse one may then rudely interrupt and continue with their observational questions. They might then say “But jeremy, this mug has a small handle only allowing for one or maybe two fingers where as you usually enjoy a handle large enough for at least three or more fingers. Would this not disqualify it from being your favourite coffee mug?

And to this I would nod politely because I knew that one had not finished and would thus interrupt any attempt on my part to answer at this time.

Then one may continue on this path of questioning and ask “Also, I notice this mug is brown and therefore does not go with anything in your closet! Wouldn’t this also disqualify it from being your favourite mug?”

And to all this I would say “This is true. I’m not sure why this is my favourite mug.”

and this is true. I’m not sure why this is my favourite mug. But it is. I’ve had it for at least five or six years now and it’s still holding coffee as well as it did on that first day when I brought it home, peeled off its price tag and then scratched all that sticky stuff that the price tag left behind and then cleaned it because you should always clean mugs when first bringing them….

I lost my train of thought.

Anyway, the best thing about my favourite coffee mug is -

It has coffee in it.
