Get the grunge mug.Something you do when you go out into the world, usually with tight friends, not giving a rat’s ass how you are perceived visually or olfactorily because you are just that incredibly cool.
An intentional bastardization of the actual Macklemore and Lewis term sounding much like “grungy funkin’ it” in their hella tight anthem to thrift shopping called “Thrift Shop.”

Get the grungry mug.A darker version of grunge. Typically wears black and incorporates grunge items such as flannel and ripped jeans. Listens to both grunge music such as Nirvana or Soundgarden and goth rock such as Bauhaus or The 69 Eyes.
Anastasia: I love Bauhaus but I also love Pearl Jam. What does that make me?
Micah: A human. But if you have to label yourself, then you'd be goth grunge.
