Shiny! The Unemployed Philosophers' Guild. (Yes, I corrected their name. Dudes, y'all need a 'postrophe!)

I definitely need one of these: Shiny!

And I'm sorely tempted by this: Tempty!

The best part about this? I found out about them from one of my new co-workers. ^_^

Actually, you are incorrect on the apostrophe. eg.; Screen Actors Guild, Writers Guild, Authors Guild, Graphic Artists Guild, National Lawyers Guild. It's different, but it's not possessive in this case, as guilds are assocations, not possessions (consider American Diabetes Association or American Heart Association; the association is not a possession of the disease).

Is the Philosophers Guild full of people named Bruce?

Those are nice cups.

Actually, adding an apostrophe is incorrect. The name, in and of itself, is complete. Adding an apostrophe breaks up the name and assigns "Guild" as an object possessed by "The Unemployed Philosophers".

Apparently Chapters carries your Descartes mug as I just saw it today at one!

I saw that same Descartes Mug at Chapters, too! So, I guess the question is: Shiny, or Tempty?
