Get the fan mug.
Derived from the misspelling of 'fun'. Means fun.
Most effective when used liberally, as hyperbole, or nonsensically.

Eg., "My job is so tedious, I sit at my computer screen all day ticking boxes on these pages, and I haven't the faintest clue why. My boss just tells me to do it. I don't think I can last another week. But still having FAN!!!!"

Or: "I like discos. They are fan."

"Your tattoo is fan."

"That movie was so fanny."
