Get the Massachusettsmug. One of the funniest and most clever 1990s sitcoms airing on ABC. The show centered around the stand up acts of comedian, Tim Allen. His character, Tim Taylor hosts a Detroit cable tool show called Tool Time. He is very masculine and interested in all aspects of the male mind: he is always building a hotrod in the garage, is sexist, HATES the opera, grunts, loves tools, loves sports and loves building things. He is however blessed with ineptitude. His ineptitude includes anything from glueing his head to a table to falling through a roof or a portapotty to dropping a two-ton beam on his wife's car. Home Improvement had a cleverly-written script and writers. It won a number of Emmys.
Home Improvment was a great show. Gags from the show:
1. the neighbor, Wilson's face NEVER being seen
2. everybody screws up Wilson's advice.
3. Tim's wife Jill cant cook.
4. Tim is always building a hotrod in the garage.
5. Tim's cohost, Al has an obsession with flannel.
6. Tim is always making fun of Al, his mother-in-law and basically anything he doesnt understand
7. Wilson's amazing knowledge of culture and history.

Get the Home Improvmentmug. It amazes me of all the silly descriptions of a small town by ignorant people on here. No, I dont live in one, but I did for a while. They are not all the same. Yes, some are poor, but some are also very affluent (Lake Zurich, Illinois for example).
A small town is the anithesis of a big city, which is not necessarily a bad thing. A small town is a community where people are a generally friendly, laid back folk, and where everybody knows almost everybody there. If you stop and ask for directions, the person giving you the directions will probably turn it into a conversation. The community is probably a speed trap, but the police who give you a speeding ticket are often known and called by their first name. You are usually not afraid to unlock your doors (although I wouldn't do it). Most businesses in town are family-owned ma-and-pa stores threatened by the Walmart nearby, which is probably the community's largest employer. The Mayor probably has another job on the side. You also know your'e in a small town because the people raise a stink over a new business coming in, fearing that it will create "traffic congestion." Some small towns can be suburbs or exurbs of a large meropolitan area.

Get the small townmug. The place people will easily go to avoid Walmart. A major retailer headquartered in Minnesota and known for its high quality products unlike Walmart or Kmart, but treat their hourly employees like yesterday’s garbage. Their stores are cleaner, the employees seem at least half decent and many of their products are made in the U.S., unlike Walmart where they are made in Communist China.
The bad outweighs the good, however. The employees are paid minmum wage and treated like second class citizens. Employees are brainwashed into using cutsie names for customers i.e. “guests” and coworkers "team members" and trained into asking any guest, “Can I help you find something?” What crap. NOTE TO MANAGEMENT: YOU’VE OBVIOUSLY HAD YOUR MAID DO YOUR SHOPPING FOR YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE OUT OF TOUCH WITH THE CUSTOMER BECAUSE THEY DON’T WANT TO BE BOTHERED, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY KNOW THE EMPLOYEE YOU HIRED AND 'TRAINED' IS BEING FORCED TO ASK THE QUESTION WITH A FAKE SMILE ON THEIR FACE. YOU SUCK. GO GET A A COLLEGE DEGREE TO GET REAL KNOWLEDGE AND REAL SKILLS TO GET A REAL CAREER AND YOU WILL LEARN WHAT REAL BUSINESS IS. HOW YOU TREAT YOUR EMPLOYEES AFFECTS HOW THEY TREAT YOUR SO-CALLED ‘GUESTS.’ Management treats their lower paid employees like slaves and expendable goods. Working overtime is discouraged (as if employees don’t have bills to pay) and not asking a “guest” for assistance results in being written-up and reprimanded like you are a kid. Target is one of those companies where its overpaid fatcats have not yet caught on that the treatment of their employees will have an effect on how they treat the “guests.” It’s simple economics, and I’m not even an Econ major and know that. The funniest thing about this out-of-touch corporation is that it hires 6-feet, 200 pound security guards. For what? Are they actually afraid someone will walk off with a $2 bottle of shampoo? Target management and its corporate bigwigs need to get over themselves, because it’s not like they have job skills that would require getting a real career.

Get the ghettomug. acronym for Chief Executive officer, the highest title in corporate America. One of the biggest things wrong with America and the biggest threats to the middle class. One of America's most hated persons with lawyers, politicians and pedophiles. A subhuman species characterized as a snake, pig, dishonest, cruel, corrupt, scandalous, greedy and arrogant. A CEO is an impotent and overpaid coporate fatcat bastard with gray hair, a small dick and small mind with a sexually-frustrated trophy wife and won't hesitate to sell their company and employees down the tubes. They're slave owners who view their employees as expendable slave laborers by paying them a slave wage or laying them off in the name of "corporate restructuring." CEOs often engage in behavior such as embezzlement, insider trading and receiving perverted bonuses while their company struggles to earn a profit and its employees receive pay cuts and can't feed their families. CEOs can be identified by their orange jumpsuits or black and white stripes sitting behind bars recieving forced sexual pleasure from their fellow inmates. Such examples of CEOs include Jeffery Skilling, Kenneth Lay, Martha Stewart and Chuck Conoway.
