Like most universities, the University of North Texas will have a whole range of merchandise students can proudly own.

Hoodies, pyjamas, gym bags - you name it, they'll have it.

But one person on social media has pointed out a glaring design with a mug bearing the initials of the institution... and it's causing a few giggles.

You see, some people think it bears a resemblance to a very rude word - which we wouldn't dream of repeating - once you include the handle.

The mug is available to buy on the University of North Texas section of a Barnes & Noble college site .

One person claiming to be a student at the establishment said they've "been making fun of those mugs for four years."

Another commented: "My sister has this mug, except all letters are black, and so is the handle. That one was intentional; my parents got it for her as a gift."

If you still can't work out what's rude about it, maybe ask a friend... but not your parents.

The picture was posted to Imgur where it's been viewed over 173,000 times.

One user said the university had probably just secured 'a million orders' from people who find the mug amusing.
