A rotating mechanical bottom. When you press a button it spins lightly, mixing the contents.

With a little vibrating action. Friction causes heat and if you are cold what better for your hands than a warm cup of joe that keeps your fingers from freezing.

Screw you guys. In England we take our drinking of hot drinks extremely seriously, we don't mess about. So here's the unofficial code:
FUCK THE COOL DESIGN ON THE MUG, IT ONLY MATTERS THAT IT IS THE BIGGEST AND HOLDS THE MOST TEA OR COFFEE.
Yeah, we have huge mugs in our house. Ill post some pics soon. Although, I do have a really cool design one with me on it (hence it being cool).

The niagara falls one reminds me of the line from Scrooged by the Ghost of Christmas Past, "Niagara Falls, Frankie Angel."
Every time I drank from it, I would have that line going through my head. Creepy.

I drink three to four pots of coffee a day. That's "12-cup" pots of coffee, not "10-cup." The first pot is caffeinated and the rest are decaf. I used to drink three to four pots of caffeinated coffee but all my doctors told me to stop. Some nurses as well. Most of my friends too...
At any rate, the coffee maker is on my desk. The collections of mugs will follow in another post.
@averydoll - your description of your mug didn't do it justice. That's an awesome mug, and the right size.

My health has returned, or rather, my illness has fled. So, out with the healthy appearances and in with the pneumonia-face.
Have I mentioned that I work when I'm sick and when I finally get well, I take sick days off from work to celebrate? I was so sick the other day, I actually took a sick day when I was sick. A day off work, and I spent it being ill. Failure...

This is my trio. The front chainlink one is from our regular china set; I drink coffee out of it because coffee goes lukewarm far too quickly for a large mug. The Big Ben mug is my tea one, and the pink girly butterfly monstrosity is my backup tea mug. I bought it when I was eighteen, but don't hate it enough yet to get rid of.

This is my kinda thread. I used to do a thing on my blog called The Daily Mug shot, I have a fun collection, but they're mostly dirty right now, I'll have to check in later after I clean the kitchen. Husband surprised me with a mug in the shape of Iron Man's head the other day and I left it in Virginia...so I won't see it again until mid-March.

Okay here we go.
This is a selection meant to represent my collection. L-R: Dalek mug, Union Jack mug from the inlaws, Vegas mug, Thoreau mug, another Dr. Who mug, celebrating River Song, a US Border Partol Mug, a mug made by my uncle-in-law, and last but not least, an espresso cup.
I'll be back when my Iron Mug comes home.
