I didn't unequivocally accuse you of being full of shit.
I've never heard anything other than them being actually etched, which is why my literal words were "My first inclination (idea, thought, etc) is that you're full of shit."
I know mug shipments have run late, especially after events where they get a flood of new subscribers. Why would they risk pissing off new subscribers, by sending an item that is not what they've consistently advertised? Especially if they need to waste money sending a second mug to any complainers.
Whatever, it doesn't really matter. A lot of the thread here was complaining about the show anyway, which is where the real criticisms lie.
I've been using my mug nearly daily since last March, though I handwash it each time. Not strictly because they said/advised to, primarily because I run my dishwasher weekly, but make a pot of coffee almost every day. It's just easier to wash any lunch residue from my hands after lunch, do a handwash of the mug while my hands are still soapy, and finally rinse out the coffee carafe & filter. My "with" is still a vibrant red.
I'm glad to hear that your mug isn't a shitty rushed version, and seems to be the same etched one that I got. I too have realized I was incorrect about a thing (many things really!) upon realizing my error, and would be a hypocrite to fault you for the same.
Factually, I won't argue I didn't. I didn't mean it in anger, I was only trying to specify a disputed point of view, that perhaps we couldn't reconcile...but we did.

Well, I grabbed my mug and took a good look at it again.
The red "WITH" did wash out/fade a good deal after washing.
So I took my fingernail to peel off a letter and, well, realized wtf? It is etched and not stick-on paper lettering.
I have nerve damage in both hands, so the logo feels raised (still does). Shit happens. Nice mug.
You pretty much called me a liar, and we're mostly correct. Again...shit happens. Nice mug.
Take care.

Thank you, be well.
