Smug Mug: We wanted to be adult

$65.00

We wanted to be adults so bad. Now look at us. Just look!

Some mugs hold coffee. Smug Mugs hold opinions.

A handmade ceramic mug for anyone who spent their childhood desperately wanting to be a grown-up and would now like to formally request a refund.

Hand-carved with “We wanted to be adults so bad. Now look at us. Just look!”, this Smug Mug features Whistle & Page’s signature raw clay text panel against a hand-glazed ceramic body. Handmade in Murrumbateman, NSW, it is a celebration of adulthood in all its deeply confusing, surprisingly expensive and occasionally ridiculous glory.

Why it’s a must-have

Because nobody warned us that being an adult was mostly remembering passwords, deciding what's for dinner, making appointments, paying for things you don't remember ordering and becoming disproportionately excited about a really good storage solution.

We thought adulthood meant freedom. Independence. Staying up as late as we wanted. Turns out it also means being personally responsible for literally everything.

For anyone who occasionally looks around at their life and thinks, Hang on. Who gave me the keys?

Features

  • Approx. 450ml

  • Approx. 8.5cm (H) × 9.5cm (W)

  • Hand-carved phrase

Benefits

  • Handmade character with considerably more personality than standard-issue crockery

  • A daily reminder that apparently nobody actually knows what they're doing

  • Perfect for coffee, tea and staring into the middle distance while contemplating your life choices
