Get the Needles & Pinsmug.
Get the lesser demonmug. I would like to define funky fashion. Funky fasion is not people who follow the trends, but may use the trends to their advantage in a certain outfit. People who are funky do not define themselves by the store that they shop in nor do the discriminate against any certain store. Funky fashion is not limited to just Lisa Turtle, or Screech but could be a mixture of the entire Saved by the Bell cast. Funky can be a mixture of thrift store and name brand, lacy and leather, a simple gold bracelet and a huge plastic pink one, matching or unmatching, a ton of jewlry or none, classy and trashy. Being funky is about taking risks, and not being afraid to get a stare or two from people who wish they could be as funky as you. Funky is about color or a lack thereof, but funky is never about boring.
I love Cameron's funky outfit, those sparkley leg warmers with those classic jeans are just the right touch.

Get the kolbymug. The Washington, DC area's mass transportation system, run by the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority.
Metro's flagship transportation system is the subway. It fails all the major requirements of a mass transit system, having none of the following: affordability for local governments, affordability for riders, stops in the most heavily visited places in the DC area, consistent and on-time trains, enough cars running for its ridership, and being able to go for more than a few weeks without a length of track catching fire.
The Metro was built on heavy rail because some brain trust figured that should the DC area become a war zone, it might be convenient to put freight cars and tanks on its tracks. Everyone knows that the best way to defend major landmarks is to put defensive weaponry several hundred feet underneath them, so this was a good plan.
A lot of people think the DC Metro is superior because it's clean. These are the same people who keep plastic on their couch cushions.
