First up, a funny coffee mug for Potterheads

Get the Harry Potter I Solemnly Swear...Marauder's Map Heat Mug [Amazon]

This one's for the ultimate Harry Potter fan. One one side, this magical coffee mug displays an image of Hogwarts. The other features the incantation one must say to activate the Marauder's Map: "I Solemnly Swear that I Am up to No Good."

So-called heat transforming mugs have temperature sensitive coating that display different graphics depending on how hot or cold the mug is. When you fill this cup with a hot beverage, tiny footprints appear around Hogwarts castle, just as they do on the map in the films.

Please note that this mug is not microwave safe or dishwasher safe.

Prescription Coffee Mug [Amazon]

Need your morning caffeine fix? For some of us, coffee really is a drug, and this mug
accurately reflects our addiction to it.

Shaped like a prescription pill bottle, it displays these doctor's orders from Dr. Java Joe Espresso: "Drink one mug by mouth, repeat until awake and alert. Expires: When Mug Is Empty." Sounds good to me.

Build-on LEGO Mug [Amazon]

Do you already have a collection of LEGOs, K'nex, KRE-O, or other bricks? This cup is compatible with them all. Just snap them on to make a unique coffee mug of your own creation.

This will also keep your hands busy and give you something to do with them if the caffiene jitters kick in.

Doing something creative with your hands is a fun way to get the "right brain" going in the morning. With your bricks and your imagination, the possibilities are endless.

Camera Lens Mug [Amazon]

Bring things into focus with a clever cup that looks like a professional zoom camera lens. It even has a lid to keep hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold. Show the world how seriously you take your photography, or, give this as a gift to the photographer in your life.

All of these make great office gifts for coworkers, gag gifts for coffee lovers, and conversation pieces. Not into using the shared mugs in the office kitchen? (Me neither.) These happen to be a practical way to make sure no one in the office mistakes your mug for theirs.
