After a week of absence, I had to dedicate the morning to catching up on my emails, which essentially meant clearing out 99% of my inbox. “Leverage AI to captivate your website audience!” Delete. “Which influencers earned the most in 2024?” Delete. “Holiday photographs from Mom & Dad!” Delete. “Crucial details regarding your precarious job status at PC Gamer, kindly read!” Delete.
However, this one piqued my interest: “Limited-Edition ‘Trigger Mug’ Merges Gaming Technology with the Tradition of Tea Consumption.”
Alright, you have my interest. I enjoy tea, my stance on culture is undecided, but oh my goodness, do I love when gaming tech integrates with other aspects. Enlighten me further about this “Trigger Mug,” unsolicited mail!
“Studies conducted in Saudi Arabia indicate that tea is the preferred beverage among gamers, who appreciate its consistent energizing and focus-enhancing properties during long gaming sessions,” the email elaborates. “Nonetheless, mobile gamers contend with a prevalent issue: needing to remove one hand from their device for a sip of tea, often resulting in elimination during gameplay.”
I recline back in my chair, fingers clasped under my chin. “Indeed,” I mutter, frowning in contemplation. “Drinking tea does result in being eliminated from games. Frequently. Frequently! Yet there’s no remedy for this perpetual quandary, so why continue to discuss it? My time is valuable.”
I navigate my mouse cursor over the delete option, but the email halts me with a startling disclosure.
“The Trigger Mug combines current mobile gaming technology into a gracefully designed tea mug, enabling players to maintain complete gaming control while savoring their favorite Rabea blend. The mug boasts precise triggers and a user-friendly design fine-tuned for popular mobile battle royale games.”
Then I catch a glimpse of it. The mug itself. The Trigger Mug. The mug… equipped with a trigger.
“Rabea, a traditional Saudi Arabian tea brand, presents a revolutionary limited-edition creation that flawlessly merges gaming technology with the age-old Saudi custom of tea drinking: the Rabea Trigger Mug.”
My… goodness. They have accomplished it. They have truly integrated it. They designed a gun I can drink from. A mug I can shoot with. Its aesthetic resembles the utilitarian black molded plastic design of a Helldivers 2 grenade, yet I can place my wet mouth on it and sip.
And it’s so high-tech. It keeps my tea warm, while simultaneously allowing me to continue playing a mobile battle royale game through its built-in trigger. However… how exactly does that function?
“THE TRIGGER MUG INCLUDES AN ACCELEROMETER, GYROSCOPE, AND A TRIGGER THAT KEEPS YOUR TEA HOT AND YOUR GAMEPLAY EVEN MORE EXCITING,” the website exuberantly declares.
I’m still a bit confused. So if the mug contains a gyroscope, am I aiming with the mug? While sipping? Is it possible to sip from something you’re moving around to target?
“RETRACTABLE ANTI-LEAK PHYSICAL SEAL,” the website assures. “WIRELESS ANATOMICAL TRIGGER. ANTI-IMPACT POLYMER.”
There’s a video in the accompanying press kit featuring loud electronic music and slow-motion close-ups of the mug spinning. The video evokes an urge to lick the mug, maybe even stroke it, however, it fails to depict anyone using it to play a mobile game while drinking. Another image of the mug next to a phone exists. Does that clarify anything?
That image does provide some assistance. I see phone. I see game. I see attractive gun mug.
“MOBILE BLUETOOTH OPERATED MACHINE MUG,” the website shouts.
Alright, I’m convinced. Sure, there’s a minor possibility that drinking tea during gaming isn’t a genuine issue that warrants a solution since one might simply wait for the round to finish to take a sip. Also, you still somewhat need to divert your gaze from the game while pouring tea into your mouth. And, straws exist.
But who am I kidding? It’s far more probable that the singular answer to this very real dilemma is an electronic mug with a freaking gun attached to it. You can discover further details about the Trigger Mug at the official site.
