Leaving Town Mugs

You are now leaving Cedarvale. Good Riddance. 'I've met friendlier people.'

'What's that? It's a leaving present for the next person who comes in late.'

'There they go - off on their own - and a finer bunch of fledgelings one couldn't ask.'

'Sure, go ahead! Evolve! It's all the rage, I know! Have fun! I'll just sit here in this murky, primordial soup with nothing but plankton for company. Why should you stay here with your mother? The one who raised you, fed you...'

"I can't get used to being a grownup."

"Ron didn't realise he was so popular."

"Maybe he's so sad that he's leaving us to go to college that he actually looks happy. Please don't ruin it for me with reality."

"Yeah, you could say I've got mother issues....she told me I have to move out!"

Sign: 'Welcome to Fernbanks. Beneath our quaint Norman Rockwell-ish exterior beats a big-box chain store heart, ready to sell out at the drop of a hat.'

"But if you leave New Orleans, you'll be just another sandwich."

'It's time to move out when Mom says...'

Fish evolving: 'Write, if you establish a niche.'

Fishbowl rebellion.

"Nothing else in my room can spin on the floor like a bottle."

"My parents said that until I find a job and move out they will not recognize me as a sentient being."

Trust

'What about you...you've been living here thirty years too?'

"Your mother and I think it's time you got a place of your own. We'd like a little time alone before we die."

'Think about it guys: We're fed and sheltered, why would we ever think about leaving the nest?'

'Son, the world is ripe for the taking ... you better stay home with me.'

"Your mother and I want to make your 21st birthday a moving experience. We'll help you pack."

"Son, one day two hundred square feet of this city could be yours to rent."

"Lives in the basement and has yet to bring home a dime."

Origins Of Evolution

"Shouldn't you use a plate?"

"Be afraid to try new things!"

"This is a little awkward, but you've been our guest for a while now, and we all have work in the morning..."

"All I ask is a chance to ruin my life in my own way."

Annual 'See You In The Spring' Hibernation Party.

'No, thanks. My folks won't let me get any piercings, yet.'

"Good luck, Sanders. We're sure going to miss that little imitation you do of me at office parties."

'How should I know how things are at home, I moved into the pub a month ago.'

"Just go ahead. It's my last day here and I hate this place."
