Some accounts trace the Unemployed Philosophers Guild's birth to Athens in the latter half of the 4th century BCE. Others argue it dates from the High Middle Ages. More recently, historians have pinpointed the birth of the Guild to New York City in the late 90s, when two brothers turned their inner creativity and love of paying rent towards fulfilling the people's needs for finger puppets, warm slippers, coffee cups, and cracking up at stuff. If you're unemployed, how come you have a job? We are employed, just not as philosophers. How did we get our start? Our origins are shrouded in mystery.

However, through negligence the prior mug was put in the dishwasher. This resulted in the image melting. My wife, a professional artist, loved it for its quirkiness and the iconic picture. So I purchased this to be its replacement. It is exactly as advertised. OBTW, it is cheap enough that if I need to replace it again, I will. Review: Fun product! - This mug is so fun! Was a great fun gift for my Mom, or any Bob Ross fan! Only drawback is not dishwasher safe, but worth it! ## Features - When the mug is cold, the image of Bob Ross reminds you to be calm and find time in your life to create. - When you pour in a hot beverage, a Bob Ross painting appears to inspire you.

We are hoping to have it back in stock before the end of the year. **Q: The film has started peeling off the top, but the color still changes underneath. How important is the top layer/could I remove it?** A: This my second color changing mug with Bob Ross. The first one, unfortunately, went through the dishwasher which is a big no-no. It lost its protective film and soon the color changing went, too. **Q: Many customers have complained of chipping and peeling. Has this problem been resolved?** A: Hi, The mug was a gift, but the recipient hasnt complained, so far ( it has been 6 weeks), and I think he would let me know if there had been problems. **Q: Will you have it back in stock for christmas?** A: Yes we have it back in stock!... It became available again tonight... but will be depleted quickly... ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Do not put this in the dishwasher *by W***W on September 15, 2023* This is to replace an identical item.
