Get the tolerance of a mousetrapmug. A groundbreaking band founded in 2019, composed a series of world-changing songs that critiqued the flaws within common 21st-century archetypes within society, such as the "Chads" and "Karens" of the world, whilst simultaneously remaining loyal to Jesus Christ Our Lord and Saviour. Unfortunately, in 2021, an altercation occurred and the band lost a couple of members. Some would claim that one member's contract had expired, whilst the other insists that they were kicked out. The world may never know the truth...

Get the Mildly Tolerable™️mug. AFK-tolerant environments are the environments where AFK moments are more normalized (read: occurring more common and feeling less painful). For example, K-12 school campuses require students to collect smartphones during school hours while those having excessive screen time per day will get an eye. This policy is akcually meant to create conducive learning environments, even though there are common misconception among gamers and YouTube addict that this policy is meant to "condition" students to inevitable AFK moments that are going to happen to them during the rest of their young lives, even after high school graduation.
The school’s strict smartphone policy created an AFK-tolerant environment, helping students adapt to being offline during class, despite some kids grumbling about missing their favorite YouTube channels.

Get the AFK-tolerant environmentmug. The "allotment" (i.e., "ration") of patience/forgiveness/understanding that someone "sets aside" for dealing with a certain situation, person, etc. --- the larger the toleration, the less likely he is to blow his stack or be hostile/unsupportive in said instance.
If someone is hot-headed or prejudiced overall, he's not likely to give anyone whom he disagrees with much of any toleration.

Mike seems to be fine even though he’s been drinking for the past 2 hours, he must still be in his tolerance window.

Get the Tolerance Windowmug. The original definition of tolerance means to recognize and respect others' beliefs and practices without sharing them. Notice the element of disagreement is key to tolerance, without it, true tolerance is not possible, since you don't tolerate people you agree with. With people we disagree , we differ with, yet still choose to treat decently and with respect
The left corrupted the definition of tolerance to mean "to agree with PC beliefs". The left claims that they're tolerant, but they're not. Try to argue with a leftist and you will see that instead of attacking your position, they attack you. Please, recognize true tolerance

Get the Tolerancemug. John has a much higher dirty-dish-tolerance, aka DDT, than Jane, so she ends up doing most of the dishes. She wonders if she is just encouraging him to do even less, but oh well, no big deal in the big picture.
