Artist billy ocallaghan relishes the humor, wordplay, and sass of Moby-Dick. To create the book mcmfmd*, he mined the text for snappy slogans for baseball caps, bumper stickers, and T-shirts; band names and lawn sign messages; a redacted catalog of all bigotry in the novel; a listing of phrases using the “as if” construction; and more. O'Callaghan's use of the Comic Sans typeface reinforces his humorous approach by juxtaposing the serious literary value of Moby-Dick with the irreverence of meme culture. This mug features a snappy quote displayed within a speech bubble alongside an illustration of the iconic great whale, Moby Dick. *more choice morsels from Moby Dick --- Ceramic 11 oz Mug made in Thailand.
