CODE WORDS MUG 12oz – Because “I’m Fine” Doesn’t Always Mean Fine

A Mug for the Fluent in Sarcasm, Sass, and Subtext

We all know someone who communicates in code—where “I’m fine” might mean “I’m barely holding it together,” or “That’s interesting” really means “You’re full of it.” If that sounds familiar, the CODE WORDS MUG 12oz is the perfect mug for you or your favourite emotionally fluent human.

This isn’t just a drinkware item—it’s a daily mood translator, an inside joke with yourself, and a hilarious way to start your morning with a smirk. Printed with cleverly disguised “code words” and their true meanings, this mug brings truth, sarcasm, and hot drinks together in one perfectly sized, snark-filled ceramic cup.

What Are “Code Words”?

They’re those everyday phrases we use to mask what we really mean. Phrases like:

• “I’m fine.” (Translation: I’m not fine.)
  
• “It’s whatever.” (Translation: I’m raging inside.)
  
• “No worries!” (Translation: I will remember this forever.)
  

The CODE WORDS MUG brings those unspoken truths to the surface with bold design and sharp wit—so you don’t have to say a word out loud.
