Get the Cloudy Engagementmug. Dismissive Engagement / dismissive engaging
When someone half-heartedly enters a debate just to shut it down, insult, or provoke — then immediately claims they don’t care, cutting off any real discussion.
They engage long enough to invalidate your point (or rile you up), but then retreat into “I don’t care” mode so they don’t have to defend themselves. It’s basically a one-way valve for arguments: their opinion goes through, yours gets dismissed.
• You: “I think the government should…”
Them: “That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. But I don’t care anyway, go argue with someone else.”
• You: “Here’s why I like this policy.”
Them: “LMAO that’s trash, but whatever, not my problem.”

Get the enragement engagementmug. When your friends get engaged and you feel that the only appropriate way to say "congrats!" is to give groom and rough hand job (this is on the spot, so you don't have the proper lubrication handy) and a pack of camel lights because they're only likely to enjoy sex until they tie the knot and their lives devolve into a spiral of depression and dissatisfaction.

Get the New Castle Engagementmug. The system of ideas behind dog engagement theory suggests that there is a net positive benefit from interacting with others as if they were dogs. From playful banter to teasing and trolling, the behaviors that bring about joy in dogs will also bring about joy in fellow humans - especially romantic partners. This stems from the belief that most take life too seriously and do not wish to risk awkward moments in pursuit of genuine and fun interactions. Those who subscribe to dog engagement theory are viewed as comedic and charismatic socializers in any setting and can turn any gathering into an enjoyable hangout.

Steve: “I don’t think I can compete with him then.”
Amanda: “You’re right Steve. I think we should both see other men.”
