Get the Footmug. A small frog-shaped chocolate bar introduced to the United Kingdom in the 1990s.
This chocolate bar famously taught kids everything they need to know about inflation. Anyone born before 2000 may just about recall Freddos always cost 10p. The price was displayed brightly in big letters on the package. You'd always see them in the sweet section of any shop and try and find a loose 10p in your pocket to get your hands on 15 grams of chocolate.
But then all of a sudden, that big bold "10p" suddenly displayed "12p". And then it was 15p. Then 17p. Then 20p. 25p! 30p! Every time that big bold number increased, a part of your soul died and there was mass hysteria all over the internet.
What gives?! Has the chocolate mine started to run out of chocolate? Have aliens come to Earth and started stealing all the Freddos and they're in short supply?
Nope, you were just experiencing inflation. Through a tiny chocolate bar.

Kid: Daddy what does inflation mean?
Dad: You know how Freddo bars used to be 10p, then they went up to 12p, then 15p, then 17p, then 20p, then 25p, then 30p?
Kid: Ah I get it now.

Get the Freddomug. The short-lived bout of flu-like side effects some people get shortly after having the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine.
Symptoms include a fever (of up to 102 degrees), feeling ill, chills, muscle aches, headaches... basically all the flu symptoms. In addition, you may get a raised lump at the jab site. Thankfully, they typically resolve fully within 48 hours, and are a sign your immune system is responding to the vaccine.

"Getting actual COVID-19 is a lot worse than AstraZeneca-itis, so do not skip out on the jab if you're offered it!"

Get the AstraZeneca-itismug. Having a nightmare but in the day, so it's just a mare since it's in the day.
Basically, another way of saying you're having a living nightmare, ie you're in a really shitty situation.

Today's been AWFUL. I thought my English Literature exam was in the afternoon, but it was actually in the morning. I missed the exam, and now I've been told I've been held back. It's like all my exam-anxiety nightmares came true! I'm truly having a mare!

Get the Having a maremug. A piece of missing media you consumed when you were very young, was extremely memorable and has left a lasting impression on you, but you cannot find it now no matter how much googling and asking people you do. You've tried for literally years and years, if not decades, to find this media, but you've not been able to find it at all.
The name of this phenomenon is inspired from one of the most high-profile searches for lost media throughout many years in the 2010s, when a man on a forum posted that for 28 years, he'd been looking for a short film, the "Clockman", he'd seen when he was 4 that he found to be extremely scary but had never been able to find or see again since. The search for the Clockman film gained traction and soon had hundreds, if not thousands, searching for it. After many years of searching and hundreds of dead leads, the film was finally found in late 2017.

"This story of two kids going really far underground I read when I was 5... I've never forgotten it, I've been looking for it for 20 years, I've never found it. It's my Clockman.
