Get the desert rose mug.the illusion, manifesting a few days after becoming engaged, that women you know other than your fiancée have become vastly more attractive than they were before your engagement, causing you to temporarily question your decision to propose.
Origin: The engagement is sealed with a diamond ring, and your female friends aren't actually any more attractive than they used to be; hence, the "diamond deception."

Guy 2: Thanks, bro.
Guy 1: How does it feel?
Guy 2: Well, honestly, these last few days I've been noticing how hot all my female friends are. But now that I'm engaged to be married, I'll never be with any other naked woman again!

Get the decent human being mug.Desert Eagle. Pretty cool gun. Finicky with ammo. Really does not like lightly loaded rounds. Mine does fairly well with the ammo I reload for it using starline brass, Rainier 335gr bullets, CCI-350 primers, and 29 grains (weight not individual grains) of H110 powder.
The percieved recoil is actually less than most .44magnum revolvers like my 44 Ruger Blackhawk. This is due to it being gas operated and especially due to its excessive weight. Those of you that say it will break your wrist have no clue what you are talking about. Don't buy into the hype. It's powerful for a handgun but it is completely controllable with practice.
It's not worth having if you don't reload as ammo is $1-$1.50 per round. I can load the above "recipe" for about $160 per thousand if I already have the brass which can withstand a dozen or more loadings.
It does serve a practical role as a hunting handgun but is probably rarely used as such.
