An invention of the media, used to sully the name of Italian Americans by portraying them as criminals, while drawing attention from the dirty Micks who were the real criminals.
There is no Mafia, it’s just a vicious propaganda, that the press uses as a smear campaign to badmouth Italians.

Get the Mafiamug. Though primary a term for Sicilian crime syndicates, it has also become a pejorative for the RIAA and MPAA due to what are perceived as shakedown or extortion tactics.

Get the MAFIAmug. A bunch of vacuous, self-important, anti-social cunts who, because of their refusal (read: inability) to interact with anyone in their own year group, have broken away and formed a tragically un-hip and un-happening little clique. Very reclusive and potentially dangerous. Their homophobic, racist and quasi-fascist adherences are particularly offensive (or hilarious, depending on how you look at it).
"So, where are we going to go after we finish our lunch?"
"I dunno...maybe study."
"How about the library? I hear the Mafia are wallowing in their own patheticness for the fifth time this week."
