Get the Absii mug.A supposedly narcotic spirit which originated in the 17th century and became popular during the turn of the century in Europe and further popularized by famous artists and writers.
Absinthe has an opaque green color with a licorice aroma and a high alcohol content, typically containing anise, artemesia pontica, melissa, fennel, hyssop and lemonbalm; some immitation absinthes contain the original controversial ingredient wormwood, which contains the neurotoxin thujone.
Immitation absinthes, despite manufacturers claims, have only a general similarity with absinthes drank a century ago. The historically romanticized drink was Pernod Fils, a French Absinthe, which contained wormwood, and the exact recipe of which was never known. However, in 2004 It was painstakingly resurrected by microbiologist Ted Breaux, who owned two original bottles, and formed a private company selling limited batches of the real thing.

Get the Abstinence Prone mug.A set of viewpoints and educational policies under which abstinence - abstaining from sexual activity - is the only form of sexual conduct that young people are taught. In theory, this teaches kids not to have sex, and prevents them using a more detailed curriculum as a checklist of things to do. In practice, kids who are taught abstinence only have a slightly lower rate of sexual activity, but aided by their enforced ignorance, have similar rates of pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases as their more thoroughly educated peers.
In theory, abstinence only education should reduce the risk of sexual activity, but in practice, it does not. "In theory, there's no difference between theory and practice; but in practice, there's always a difference." - Y. Berra

Get the abstinence only mug.Every year around the 5th of december the Dutch celebrate sinterklaas by doing a kind of secret santa that involves writing poems for and giving presents to friends and family. Absinterklaas is a man similar in most respects to sinterklaas, except he is woke and does not keep black slaves.
In the drinking game Absinterklaas, a usually dysfunctional group of friends writes insulting poems for each other and make each other drink shots of Absinthe according to an arbitrary and unfair set of rules. For instance, one person always has to drink when others do. The game ends when everyone has either passed out or is running around naked.
