A square, cork-backed coaster featuring a "No Signal" screen from a television set. I've got access to square coasters, and I grew up with square television sets.

We were never well-enough off to have to worry about the condition of our table surfaces, nor did we ever have the money to buy coasters. However, when I moved out, it was one of the first things I did. I found some funny ones that said "Don't Fuck Up The Table". My table was made by me, so I didn't want it messed up. Having a set of coasters for people to use just adds a more "home"-like feeling to wherever you are. It's a dumb layer of faux elegance, but it can make you feel better off, like a trick of the mind. If they have something cool or clever on them, they make for a great conversational piece when new people or even friends come over for the first time.

The coaster is waterproof and heat-resistant, thanks to the cork backing and hardboard surface. The design should hold up to all of the stains and condensation that the coaster is saving your table from.
