I'll start you off with mine.
"Guns don't kill people I kill people"
This was gven to me by my boss when the cleaner (I suspect) broke my Everton mug from the FA cup final 1984.
BTW I am not a homicidal maniac, quite the opposite, in fact you could say I am pathological pacifist. my bosses attempt at Irony - I don't mind though Happy Gilmore was hilarious ;)

I can’t read the last one but to describe it, it’s green, kinda furry, seems to quiver a bit. I haven’t seen the cat for a few days perhaps it’s the cat, don’t remember it being green though!

Next: You Brits might like my Spode tea cup with a sailing ship on it... I don't use it, though, as its small capacity would require too many trips to the coffee pot. :)
The rest seem to be a motley assortment of freebies.
<plum> Sounds awfully nice old chap - about right for a nice cup of earl grey and maybe a crumpet </plum>

JonKing - I bet you have a "Dewey Wins Presidency" newspaper, too... ;)
Never understood why.

It was a freebie from Disneyland, from about ten years ago.
Still my favorite :)
Loved the picture Macguru.

But a new one is in the mail, so I'll have a chance to customize it all over again. :)
Mine is one of the huge ones from starbucks. Guess where I bought that..!
I have the same one. In red.
But I have been eyeing up the "make it a double latte mug" in the Google Store for quite some time.

Kid on front steps of building with books under one arm, pushing with other arm against a door marked "pull"... from the angle he's leaning at he's working hard and he's been trying a while.
Sign over door reads "School for the Gifted"
'twas a gift from my brother who is dyslexic to me who is gifted. He still thinks it's the best thing he ever bought me. I kinda agree :)
P.S. It's on the bottom in small print raised in the ceramic.
I thought it was fitting.

Is the cup like a security blanket of sort?

I grab big cup from micky D to drink ice water all day.
Now you know.
Also, an NPR Morning Edition mug signed by Bob Edwards with the note "Wishing you no bad hops" (no, not beer related--he found out I played shortstop on a coed softball team).

is it custom in USA or britain to have your "special
coffe/tea" mug?
Nobody but nobody had better touch my coffee mug. They may find out my pacifism can only be pushed so far!
My beloved mug is close to my age ... so its OLD. It bears a hand painted image of the original Blue Nose leaving Lunenburg, Nova Scotia under full sail on the day of her launching - March 26, 1921.
My mug sits on my desk about 6 inches away from my computer all day and is retired to its place of honour in the kitchen atop a small, hand carved, wooden display pedestal in the evening. The pedestal is carved in the shape of Bluenose' hull. Nobody washes the mug but me. Nobody touches the mug but me. Got it! :)

Any brits remember the Mr Men?
My cup has Mr Tickle on it.

My Google mug is on the desk dutifully holding the increasing number of pens I receive in the mail.
