It's Tough Being a Genius But I Manage Mug | Funny Cow Mug

The burden of brilliance. it's tough being a GENIUS but I manage — "it's tough being a" in handwritten script at the top, "GENIUS" in large bold orange type in the centre, "but I manage" in handwritten script below. The star of the show: a googly-eyed cartoon cow in oversized round glasses, chewing a leaf, looking simultaneously bewildered and self-satisfied. Absolutely unhinged in the best possible way.

For the person who knows they're a genius and isn't shy about it — or the person who buys gifts for that person. A brilliant birthday gift, Christmas gift or just-because gift for anyone with a healthy sense of self-belief and a good sense of humour. Hand-pressed in our Sussex studio and finished with our 1-Year Print Guarantee — if the print fades or peels under normal use, we'll replace it. Packed in double-walled smash-proof packaging and dispatched ready to gift.
