    Stick ice in the inner one and run the outer one under the hot tap.


    Edit: scratch that! �� Run them both under the hot tap and then tap them gently against your thigh, use washing up liquid for lube.

    Pour a load of fairy liquid on them.

    Giving them a good bang against the tap should do it.

    Easy OP , just set your house on fire.

    Fairy liquid hasn't worked, no ice in the house, time for the petrol on the house

    No need for such drastic action yet. I reckon I could easily separate them with a hammer


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,438 ✭✭✭✭EmmetSpiceland


    Why is it so dark? Did you take those photos last night?

    But back to the matter at hand, I’d echo what was said above, put hot water in the bottom jug and then ice or even cold water on the mug.

    Good luck.

    WD40 works a treat.

    Chaim Lively Tableware, you're the one we look to for guidance, but WD40 is flammable.
    I know this from experience.

    I’m not sure if this is a piss take or some sort of weird euphemism but just in case it’s a straight up question .....
    just put them in a sink with warm soapy water and gently twist the mug.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,034 ✭✭✭mad muffin


    A bit of olive oil around the rim.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,063 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Why?



    How?



    That's a special kind of stupid.

    I know how to solve that if it were a tea mug.
    But coffee mugs I know nothing about.

    Stick em in the oven for a while (not too hot), then pour cold water over the inner one.

    Decide which one you like the most and give the other one a decent smack with a hammer.

    Great success, hit them hard against the outside bin a few times and out they popped. Coffee mug was chipped so it stays in the bin but the gravy Jug is sound which was the important one. Dark picture since I'd the camera Flash left On

    Where did I say to ignite it? This is not in conjunction with burning the house down. A quick spray, twist apart, wash well. Job done.

    Well that's a bit of an anticlimax.

    So you lost the mug after all that, would have been easier to smash it so.

    Nice way to crack them due to thermal shock. The hammer would be quicker.

    My penis is stuck in the vacuum cleaner hose.

    Would setting it on fire/WD40/washing up liquid/smashing it with a hammer or putting myself in a warm oven solve the problem for me?

    I need a fairly quick solution to this as I'm currently sat at my desk and my co-workers are beginning to stare.

    putting yourself in a warm oven would definitely solve the problem. Or make it seem inconsequential at the very least.

    Right, follow these steps carefully.
    1. Pour water in the vacuum, make sure it is plugged in.
    2. If you still can, infuse some Early Grey tea with asparagus.
    3. Get a colleague to hold a stapler to your head.
    4. Blast it with piss. If the force of your man-wand is strong enough it will free you from the vacuum.

    PS; actually, maybe just skip to step 4.

    Jizz OP, I make sure to give all the cups in my house a good jizzing at least once a week just to be sure. The missus hates it, but dems the rules.

    You need to focus and motivate your mind. Introduce a hungry and angry mouse into the other end of the hose. You will come up with an escape solution really quickly after that.

    Classic. My all time favourite thread.
