Asgard, in Norse mythology, is one of the nine worlds and the homeland of the Aesir, the race of warrior gods. Located on the highest level of the Norse universe, it is surrounded by a high wall of closely fitted stone blocks. The walls surrounding Asgard were built by Blast (or Hrimthurs), who asked in payment the hand of Freya plus the sun and the moon. Odin agreed providing the walls be complete in six months. Hrimthurs had a magic horse, named Svadilfari, who helped him in his work. To Odin's (and the other gods, especially Freya's) horror, with but a few days left, Blast was almost finished. Loki, the trickster, turned himself into a mare and beguiled the stallion Svadilfari away. The job was not completed in time and no payment was given.
Also found on this level are the worlds of Alfheim and Vanaheim as well as Valhalla, an immense hall where warriors slain in battle await the final conflict.
In the middle of Asgard lies the plain of Idavoll (or Ida) where the Aesir meet to decide important issues. There the gods assemble in the hall of Gladsheim and the goddesses in the hall of Vingolf. The gods also meet daily at the Well of Urd, beneath the Asgard root of the ash tree Yggdrasil.

Get the Asgard mug.Derived from the word "anger" and put into a more slang form. It's simply another way of saying you're angry, except it sounds cooler.

Get the angar mug.Historical protectors of the Nordic realm. Obviously better than the Greek counterparts, since Nordic men as far less gay.
Erik The Red wasn't as gay as Alexander The Great because the Nordic warriors were equipped with better ass-guards.

Get the atharva mug."Atari Safari" is an addendum to the Palma Sutra, the ancient vedic discourse on self-pleasure. An Atari Safari is when you climb inside an arcade-size video game and replace the joystick with your own and hope that the next player gets the high score.

Get the Atari Safari mug.Originally maker of coin-op video arcades followed by home arcade games and finally 8-bit computers such as the 400 and 800. After the advent of the IBM PC clones it came out with the ST series but they failed to catch on with businesses. Kept on going strong for years in Europe (Germany in particular) but finally went out of business.
