Charlie Chaplin is often considered the greatest filmmaker of all-time. While that may remain debatable, it is too clear that he is one of, if not the number one film comedian of all time. His best known and most performed character is the “little tramp.” Famous for his signature appearance, specifically the over-sized pants, undersized jacket and that classic mustache, the tramp typically deals with angry policemen, vicious criminals, bumbling drunks, and always those pretty girls. Chaplin’s approach to filmmaking developed over time to eventually include his views on issues including class distinction and extreme poverty. He even took on Adolf Hitler in his 1940 classic, The Great Dictator, in which he portrayed Hynkel the dictator of Tomainia, and a Jewish Barber. Chaplin’s views found in his films, including a critique of the U.S immigration system, were deemed “Un-American”, and he was barred re-entry into the United States upon returning from Europe. Fortunately, he was finally recognized with distinction at the Academy Awards in 1972 for "the incalculable effect he has had in making motion pictures the art form of this century".

Man #2: Your ignorance astounds me. Again, shut the fuck up.

Get the Charlie Chaplin mug.A street term for cocaine. They say it originated from the poshest backstreets of Wimbledon, London where affluent young private school boys would flaunt their parents hard-earned cash on the white powder to fuel a night on the prowl, to make up for their low self-esteem and penis girth and to try and emulate the heroic/inspiring acts of Jordan Belfort a.k.a The Wolf of Wall Street.

Get the changing the channel mug.Chalino Sanchez was a Mexican singer who gained popularity in California in the early 1990's for his controversial lyrics. He is considered the father of 'corridos'(music genre) and his career has inspired others to follow his legacy. His life is similar to that of the late Tupac Shakur in many aspects.
