Why does it feel better, mentally and physically to hold a mug by the body rather than the handle that’s literally built into the thing, designed explicitly for holding?
Because it’s like giving a soothing, warm thing a hug? I definitely prefer holding a mug by the handle though.
That’s because you’re not in an ad for Heinz tomato cup-a-soup. In winter. Wearing a baggy sweater.
I sometimes hold by the handle but tend to find I hold the body more, maybe 80:20
I’m of the opinion you never buy a Brit a mug as a present. They’re very personal and it takes ages to find one you really like. Then you accidentally break the fuckin thing
Very true, same for ‘you never use someone else’s mug’ in case you break it
Worst thing ever going round someones house and they say “oh just get a mug out the cupboard” like Indiana Jones and the last cruisade take a newer one it might be expensive or take the old tea stained thing that probly belonged to Grandad who just passed away last week
