I've heard / seen some things at work and the people there still seem to be alive and kicking....
* filling the kettle with hot water
* eating a half tin of beans left overnight in the kitchen window with tissue stuffed at the top
* rinsing out a cup of soup and making tea in the same cup with the remains of the soup still inside
* rinsing dirty cutlery that others have left in the sink and thinking it's clean to use, etc
I'd much rather buy a new cup for a couple of quid than drink out of anything that has mould or been washed with bleach. Favourite cup or not, it's gotta go - your health surely comes first!

Your poor favourite cup.
If I reached into the breadbin and pulled out a green slice of Hovis I wouldn't get a new hand because I'd had something mouldy in it - a quick wash and it'd be back in the breadbin for a slice of Warburtons. So I think it's probably okay just to wash the cup. And cups are much more washable than hands, being all glazed and dishwasher safe and all that.
I once drank from a cup that had mould in it and I turned green like the incredible hulk and went round beating up bad guys. Cost me a bloody fortune in blouses and slacks. True.

...the list is so endless and disgusting!
That's true. Regular dish-soap and HOT water would have been more than enough to clean the cup.
It will be fine.
oh dear, I've just been reminded of a certain video... with two girls...
Now I feel ill...

same here. You'll be fine OP. My plates have gone mouldy before and I've just washed them and ate off them straight after and I've felt OK.
