You've seen the signs, the glasses, the t-shirts, the lollipops that all make pretty big claims. Whether it's Michael Scott's World's Best Boss mug or that hilarious clip from Elf there sure are a lot of "world's best" somethings out there. Because I am one of the most gullible people, for about 2 seconds I believe these claims. My eyes twinkle and the word "really?" pops into my head out of excitement and anticipation. Okay, let's separate the wheat from the chaff: which world's best claims do you fully support? Which are totally bogus? Favorite World's Best signs? Something tells me that the fact that the world's best coffee signs are MASS-PRODUCED may mean that the rating system is a bit biased.

This Mug Exaggerates my Grandfathering Skills to an Embarrassing Degree

“I mean, look at Ralph Fincher, just across town. He’s got 16 grandkids in three states, and he never forgets a birthday. He knows each grandchild’s favorite candy and always has a bedtime story at the ready. Just to be mentioned in the same breath as a grandpa like that is an honor. I’ve only got the one grandkid, and here I am being lauded as some sort of world champion in the field? I’m speechless. "

The World's Best Cup of Coffee

“Congratulations! You did it!”

Hands down, my favorite part of Elf. Am I alone in this?

World's Best Cat Litter

I cannot vouch for the accuracy of this dangerously in-your-face statement. But I have my doubts.

You’re telling me that a notoriously finicky and bitchy animal — cats — have all agreed that THIS is the best cat litter? In the World? And you’re so confident about this that you’re not just plastering it all over your marketing materials, website, and commercials, but you’ve actually incorporated it into the name of your PRODUCT?

I don’t think so.
