Get the bryn mawr mug.Mawkish means excessive sentimentality or a unhealthy fascination with death or tragedy.
Comes from the old English word 'maggot' and originally meant “sickly or nauseated' But mawkish eventually evolved to mean something so overly sentimental it makes you sick.
Nowadays it has come to mean those who have a fascination and a joy in tragedy and bereavement and enjoy placing flowers on celebrity or national tragedy grave sites or monuments even though you have no connection to them family wise or friend wise.

Get the mawkish mug.Mawie is a sexy motherfucker, as often described by both herself and her peers (who should be eternally grateful to have ever even looked at such a fine specimen like Mawie). People named Mawie tend to have a rare form of a genetic mutation which makes their brain 10x the regular size and capacity of a non-Mawie. This means that they are very intelligent beings and have quite attractive brain wrinkles. Mawie is a superior being, a god amonsgt men. Anyone who dares to disrespect Mawie will have to fight her four funky friends to the death because such slander will not be tolerated in the Mawie community.
"Oh my god, thats Mawie! Quick, offer her your devotion! Praise her and her ginormous ass!"
"Damn. I wish my brain was as hot as Mawie's"
"Aha damn bbg you're such a Mawie! Finna make me act up ;)"

Get the Mawie mug.The Bryn Mawr School is a prestigious school located in Roland Park, near all the big, rich houses. Everybody knows that if you didn't get into Bryn Mawr, you'll probably to go to NDP or SPSG. Tuition is so high because the education is better than any school in Maryland. Most seniors end up going to Ivy Leagues, or getting accepted into the top 25% of colleges in the USA.
The average Bryn Mawr student lives Guilford or Roland Park, and everybody drives a Mercedes or a BMW to school. People get their first cars, typically in sophomore year, right after they get their permit. Bryn Mawr girls mostly date guys from Gilman and Boys Latin. Both all-boys schools filled with other rich people like them. Bryn Mawr would never be caught dead dating a guy from Calvert Hall, Loyola, or St. Pauls (unless they're seriously desperate). They're just not on the same level.
Unlike NDP or Maryvale, these girls are smart AND rich. Most Bryn Mawr girls play at least two sports while still getting good grades (even though the curriculum is a lot harder than other surrounding schools). If you're from CHC, LB, or SPSB, you have got no chance being with a girl from Bryn Mawr, you're lucky if they even talk to you. If you're from any of those schools and you happen to be talking to someone from Bryn Mawr, just know that they're probably bored because their Gilman boyfriend is away.
They have the best uniform. Bryn Mawr girls get invited to all the dances, but only go if it's Gilman or Boys Latin.
