That is quite expensive, maybe two girls can share one…
You know what’s cheaper than that? Being one guy with a jar.
And a my little pony figure.
Any other use is dangerous
Do you mean the cum jar?
Everyone’s being all wink wink understated and you come in here all Leroy fucking Jenkins.
Who’s that?
You’re one of today’s lucky 10,000 it seems.
Yeah…
Oh, have Gen Z rediscovered the thermos flask?
Yes, but they’re calling it a “Stanley cup”
In Canada it’s legal to cross check anyone who calls a thermos a stanley cup.
You didn’t have to preface “cross check” with “In Canada”.
Is that because it’s made by Stanley instead of Thermos?

There is a water jug & mug manufacturer named Stanley. Apparently these “Stanley” brand cups went viral on TikTok, and TikTok users proceeded to buy them all up in a craze. The meme shows homer sitting next to the championship trophy of the National Hockey League, which is called the Stanley cup (no relation whatsoever to the Stanley name brand).
so it’s the next hydroflask?
It’s the next Nalgene Canteen. Get off my lawn.
It next cupped hands. Unga bunga.
Pfft, cupped hands? I just hold the water in my mouth until I get thirsty
Damn, that’s so progressive! I just hold it in my bladder until someone needs a drink!
It’s the next Sigg?
I bought a Sigg in 2009. I will never forget. It was the first aluminum reusable water bottle in existence AFAIK. It came from Switzerland and I didn’t have much money at all but it was so important to me that I have this and I ordered it through the mail. Am a hydrohomie and I used that thing until it died 💦
Love the thoroughness of this. The only detail I could add is that the pink version pictured is a Starbucks exclusive version. And if an expensive cup wasn’t enough, there is a market for add-ons to the cup like phone holders and shoulder straps.

TikTok is probably the most effective marketing platform in decades. Probably this generation’s equivalent of G.I. Joe and Transformer

Stanley cup craze. No, not the hockey Stanley Cup.
I will never understand why many consumers are so fucking stupid… 🤦
While everyone was busy buying up all the toilet paper I realized I don’t actually need it nearly as much as I had been using it, if I just shower afterwards, and ended up saving a ton of money.
Good ol’ waffle stomping.
Spending money on dumb shit is fun for them, and combined with… FOMO I guess… suddenly the marketing campaign is a real trend.
And judging from a few people I know IRL, they don’t even necessarily know that marketing/advertising is involved.
Can’t trust that bored-sounding narrator in that dikdok. Never trust anyone whose entire adverb repertoire is ‘literally’.
Whenever there’s a stupidity expensive version of a functional thing, Coleman makes a version that’s as good or better for half the price: https://www.coleman.com/coolers-drinkware/drinkware/.

I really like the project farm video on this, fairly good information on the quality of these.
That’s a great video! Looks like I need to upgrade my whatever-brand water bottle to a Stanley!
I have a travel mug from Stanley that I love
https://www.stanley1913.com/products/classic-travel-mug-french-press-16-oz
It fits the water bottle holder on my bike. It secures well. I can use the French press part for coffee or loose leaf tea. It’s pretty bomb proof.
It’s weird to me to hear Stanley is big suddenly.
I don’t get it. Men go around for years carrying Yeti tumblers and no one bats an eye. Women start carrying a similar cup with a handle and everyone acts weird.
Because limited edition cups of the brand I used to buy at the Flying J truck stop for $12.99 now costs $150, and the resale value is $200. People are buying a half dozen or more to go with whatever they’re wearing. They’re Stanley mugs for heaven’s sake.
It’s absolutely stupid, and Yeti was just overpriced trendy stuff, not the equivalent of a Beanie Baby fad as a fashion accessory.
Can’t wait until these fools are stuck with piles of worthless mugs they wasted money on. You’ll find these mugs at yard sales or Goodwill in a few years. Good for Stanley makers, though. Hope they laugh all the way to the bank over this vapid trend.
Edit: TBC I think the overpriced Yeti gear is dumb, but I never thought of it as being “gendered”. Plenty of women had Yeti gear. The levels to which this Stanley thing is being taken is ridiculous, and it seems to be predominantly a female thing as a fashion accessory. It’s not dumb because women are the ones buying it up, it’s just dumb because it’s dumb. IDC who the suckers are.
Maybe because the yeti tumblers tiktoks don’t go viral and reach outside their bubble.
I’m just amazed that anyone thinks a metal coffee tumbler is superior in any way.
Here’s the ultimate way to drink coffee, after years of experience trying different things:
- large double-walled borosilicate glass mug. You can find several versions of this on amazon, get one that fits your cupholder.
- plastic lid from any other travel cup for when you need it, usually it fits pretty well
The only downside is you will occasionally drop it and it will shatter into a million tiny pieces.

Hey look, you were able to think of a way that metal coffee tumblers are better!
lol yeah I’m not bringing that monstrosity in my car. Stainless steel is perfectly fine.
No way! Ceramic Le Creuset mug, sitting at my kitchen table, waiting for my brain to activate for the day.
I agree for drinking at home, but for travel, get a ceramic-lined double-walled steel cup like a Fellow Carter or a Stanley Ceramivac. (I use the Carter and love it.)
Marge is in the back with her hair down.
That doesn’t look like Marge at all.
No she´s not
You think she’s cheating on Homer?
Marge is faithful to Homer, when she had the opportunity to cheat, she did not do it in the end.

Made by a mediocre hand tool manufacturer no less
Nope. Completely different companies. They’ve been making insulated bottles since 1913.
The bottles are a different company, but I’d say that calling Stanley tools “mediocre” is generous of you.
Perfect if you only drink with your right hand!
I mean, you can set it up with the handle on the opposite side. Or, my favorite way, you can reach across and drink with it in the crook of your elbow like an old timey moonshine jug.
Now anyway
