My Favourite Mug

My Favourite Mug

I don’t have a lot of favourite things. When somebody asks me about my favourite movie or my favourite musician, I tend to struggle to answer. There are so many of them, and I feel differently about them depending on my mood or what I’ve been thinking about as of late. I tend to give a generic answer or change the topic. It is simply too hard to pick. I should probably have a rehearsed answer where I just list ones I like, but I haven’t taken the time to do that. It seems limiting to me. Say I picked, for example, celebrated director X. I don’t want to be perceived as an X-liking kind of guy. I like to leave open the possibility of changing my mind, and expressing such a strong predilection for something means it is harder to take it back later, if that’s how one feels like. I just don’t have such clear cut preferences for most things. When it comes to mugs, however. I do have a preference.
