Hamo, i saw the photo on Instagram a few days and i had no idea what it was until i read the caption that went with it. I just saw a gray blob with a few spots of colour. Then last night i was looking at another photo of it and reading all the comments and several people mentioned the 'baby' elephant in it. Did you notice that? I couldn't even see one elephant until i really looked for it and then find out that there is actually two.

The definition of what constitutes a Tiki mug was blurry enough to begin with but now it has just become a joke. You should see some of the absolute crap that is hash tagged as a #tikimug over on Instagram. And i'm not even talking about those things that are an ATTEMPT at a Tiki. Instead of calling them what they really are, a ceramic cocktail mug, businesses like Disney and Geeki-tiki (who produce all the Star Wars/Marvel etc. bullshit) are just completely bastardizing the scene and what Tiki really is, all to make a fast buck.
