Welcome!

We’re glad you’re here.

We like to think of ourselves as more of an online family than an online community and we strive to provide a unique combination of both diversity and peaceful interaction. Please keep this in mind as you check out all answerMug has to offer and meet the other members.

There is lots to see and do around the site. Right now, you're looking at our visitor's page, but if you sign up for an account (or sign in if you already have an account), you'll see so much more. Feel free to use our main activity feed to help your browse what some Muggers are up to right now and peruse to your heart's content.

After you are logged in, you'll be able to take advantage of our Q&A, join/create special-interest groups, talk with other Muggers via our live chat, and a whole lot of other stuff.

See you on the Mug side,

    answerMug is my utopia. I was born and raised in a small Midwestern town that probably had fewer citizens than answerMug has members now. Though I presently live in a good-sized city, I still carry many of the values I picked up in my youth. I love people of all types, I try to be considerate, and I...

    My mom was deemed "mentally incompetent" following her stroke. There are a million things that highlight this, like today, when her arm slipped under her seat belt strap and she couldn't figure out how to remove it.   Or, like the fact that she swears people are stealing stuff from her room, ...

    Turmeric, an orange or golden colored spice is part of the ginger family and has been a staple spice in Indian cuisine. Turmeric probably originated in India, deriving from the wild species C. aromatica (India, Sri Lanka, E. Himalayas), as this is the area where the greatest diversity of spices...

    There must be White Racist credos that all good little racists know. Why not replace the words on the Statue of Liberty with one of tthem?
    Truth in advertising. Lady Liberty is guilty of false advertising. Simply say "ALL WHITES WELCOME. THE REST OF YOU CAN GO SUCK AN EGG" or something equally poetic and classy.

    Are there more neo-Nazis in America than in Germany? Wouldn't that be a kick in the head?
    Germany has banned everything Nazi. America is in full flower showing off, bragging and thanking their prez for being "honest". SIGH. Who wouldda thunk it?
