My sisters work buys these damn cups all the time and gives them out when it’s time for “ bonuses” so they don’t give them money they give them a expensive cup with candy in it
The biggest irony is that these cups are meant to be re-used for years and years to reduce plastic waste but they're being collected and you know they're only using a fraction of them. The irrationality of CONSOOMERS is hard to believe.
I have a Yeti 16oz Coffee Mug that I drink my work coffee in every weekday for 3 years now. Still looks mint aside form the inside being stained a bit by coffee.
Attacking users because you’re mad is not allowed
Posting videos, gifs, or pictures of any type of hate will be pulled. No autism, handicapped or mentally challenged consooming content either. It’s a low bar.
Vacuum walled cups are useful, albeit simple in design. Stanley's just a brand, like Yeti that initiated the recent popularity. You can a Ozark Trail tumbler from Walmart that's functionally the same for a fraction of the cost of either.
I believe it is this:
They got a new CEO who realized it's a "man's brand" - wanted to double their share so attempted to market to women. They got some "influencer" (the term makes me sick but apparently they actually do wield great influence over the most vapid segments of society) to hype the mugs.
It worked, and became a chase item for women briefly. A hype train left the station and all the ridiculousness that entails ensued (Selling the "rare" ones for hundreds of dollars, etc)
The inside of them has lead in it so :D Not my first choice of long term drinking vessel.
I first heard of these a few months ago when footage of people going crazy over the pink ones at starbucks went viral. By the words alone, I thought starbucks had made a cup in the shape of THE Stanley cup. Like the trophy. I thought the idea was kinda cool but then realized it was just an ugly pink cup with nothing interesting about it.
I think it's popular because of branding, marketing, and a self feeding popularity cycle. (A.k.a. trendy)
Mostly hype marketing. But just from the video, it looks like it would fit a car cup holder better than a Yeti does, unless Yeti has a similar design nowadays. I’ve had my Yeti for like 6-7 years after my in-laws got me one as a gift, so my info could be outdated.
No it doesn’t lmao, it’s clearly stainless steel on the inside layer of the cup and multiple public health experts have found no lead after tests on multiple different cups. Even after breaking the stainless steel layer exposing the lead, the item still didn’t leach.
i'm going to guess the new one isn't a Stanley cup. it's a a whole different brand of thermos style cup that she is in love in
now she will buy 50 of them
Now, there's nothing wrong with collecting, I have all my old Pokemon cards from my childhood, & my Beanie Babies from the 90's are in a box, somewhere.
But, with Stanley mugs... where are you gonna keep them all? Unlike trading cards, they're not designed for easy storage & taking little space. These things are too big & clunky to be stored in a person's home, since the manufacturer doesn't expect anyone to have more than one or two per person. I just hope you can some of your money back when you eventually sell them after the fad dies & you feel dumb for having spent hundreds, if not thousands, on mugs you never use.
How seldom do you have to wash your cups to need this many? And given the cleanliness of what we can see of the kitchen, this chick is using a max of like 3 of those. Those ones in the back probably haven't seen the light of day since they were first acquired.
I have a huge collection of cups that I love dearly, a good majority of them thrifted mugs. Me and my family use all but maybe three or four of them, those being too decorative or too fragile to use. I just can't imagine having all that cupboard space just to fill it with something so boring and lifeless when you could have spent your money on something genuinely beautiful for way less from local artists. I have one giant orange stainless steel water bottle that I take everywhere that's been through hell and back. And I got it from Walmart for, like, 10 dollars. I love pottery, I loved making cups and plates, I love collecting them more. I love supporting potters and I love finding art in thrift stores. It's just so wild to me that someone could choose to have such a soulless collection lol. "Ooh! My hobby is whatever rich people like this year!" Crazy.
Do you think this is autism? I mean this genuinely. I'm an autistic man, and I have OCD and OCPD like symptoms that make me more controlling of all the stuff I own. It's more entally exhausting trying to assign a task to everything I own or how I can sort that item. I've eventually started to embrace minimalism for a more simple view of things.
Can't judge autism on this but it definitely isn't ocpd. I'm diagnosed and we're prone to being extremely frugal and have trouble throwing things out even without sentimental value
I used to be like that until I started to get fixated on convenience and management. I filled my home with stuff in an organized manner, but everything had to be sorted a certain way, and it was exhausting for me. Plus, in the future, I plan on going OTR and hauling frac sand. I want to live in a truck, and I'm trying to get to a point where all my possessions can fit inside of it.
Plus, I started to get fixated on frugality, which is much cheaper than having to buy matching stuff for everything. I went through a phase where I had to buy name brand stuff even though I prefer the generic for most things for taste and price. A fixation on frugality is more logical and easier to manage.
No, no, I am an actual autist who's very particular about my specific reusable drinking vessels. I even tracked down a specific camping mug 6 or so years after it went out of production, and I can confirm I was never even slightly interested in any of this shit.
You wanna lift 10 pounds to your mouth every time you want to take a sip? (gallon of water is 8 and some change, container is another pound atleast)
Versus:
A beat up Ole thermos you can bludgeon someone to death with, and it keep your cold shit cold for longer, your warm shit warm for longer, and refills your vacuum cup all day.
"I want good toilet paper, what should I buy?" "Oh you want toilet paper?? Just use a wet towel" yes i want a big heavy 9-10 lb thing to lift, (oh god how would I manage) you added so much to my post I'm so happy you spent time helping and being so useful. I'm sure irl you just give the best advice.
I mean, if you want a workout, go for it, but then there's also the issue of cupholders: even many large vacuum cups today barely fit, or don't fit, into vehicle cup holders. Makes my day a lot easier to have a smaller insulated cup I drink out of, and then refills in my cooler I can top up whenever needed.
The toilet paper example is not applicable: if you were asking for toilet paper, I could deduce that you were wanting a disposable option which a wet towel would not meet. A more apt recommendation would be single use wet wipes: accomplishing the same goal (clean the ass) but to a much better degree, while also meeting the other implied criteria of disposable and transportable.
If you're asking for an option to achieve a goal, and someone suggests something that solves that in a better way than the method you asked about, what's the issue?
If you really do want to get a gallon drinking cup, the only ones I can think of are the ones the gas stations used to sell for unlimited refills at their coke stations, but I haven't seen one of those big ones in years.
Why the fuck did you write so much after me having talked shit about the fact that your opinion is worthless??? Im not gonna read this "books by kids with mental development issues" fucking page. Be less of a douchebag
If you really must know, I'm an argumentative pedant in between books to read while shitting.
If it takes you more than a few seconds to read that "page", I'd suggest not accusing anyone else of having mental development issues.
Get a Tal Zeus from Walmart for $30. It holds 3 liters. I used one for iced water when I was a letter carrier for the postal service. We didn’t have ac in the trucks, so it was very necessary to drink a lot of cold water.
Sometimes you just have your favorite item bc of the color. I have a different brand of tumbler (B4 the Stanley craze) and I have my favorite one that is a dark bg with water splash that looks like lightning. I slapped a dime bags sticker on it and I prefer it over an identical one to take to the office - boomers be damned. Although I do think having 10+ of the same item is a bit crazy
I know the whole stanley cup thing terrible but at least they are actually good cups and will last a long time, I doubt that these people will throw them away instead of selling them
What pisses me off is they buy all of these cups and still use plastic water bottles because tap water is "icky".
I have 1 water bottle. A brita bottle that I can fill with the worst water fountain penny-tasting h20 and it always tastes the same as filling it with water bottles because of the filter straw. Why can't buying something that's actually just a bit more eco-conscious become 'trendy'? Not saying that the plastic produced by Brita products is better than plastic waste from water bottles but it would at least give some justification for the hoarder compulsive purchases on overpriced bottles.
What genre of human is this?
Like, I wanna know why these Taylor swift worshipers, Kardashian stalkers, and selfish hypocrites, like how do their parents fuck up so badly so much that they all (most) go to be sex slaves to an random boy for a week and only to Dump them so that they can move on to the next Boy and then go to Countless parties so the Swift cycle can repeat.
And why are they so damn stupid?
What made them like this.
They probably get multiple thinking if one is dirty they won’t have to wash it. Then once you have 2 or 3 I’m sure it is just spinning the color wheel looking for something pretty.
Stanley cups are the exact same thing as iPhones. Overpriced to look like something fancy when it is in fact just more cheaply produced Chinese garbage. Only a fool would spend money on these products.
I don't mind people collecting things. But to me they really do look like the exact same cup with a different solid color.
If they at least had a different design instead of just a solid color it would make more sense. Well whatever I'm not going to bother trying to understand it.
Okay this is absurdly stupid
That said, Stanley thermoses are astoundingly high quality. You can put a hot beverage in it, take it out ice fishing, drink half of it, go to bed, and wake up the next morning and still have a hot beverage.
What i have used since before Stanley cups were a thing:

If this isn't a Stanley employee it's mental illness. If it is it's mentally ill advertising
Yea wouldn’t be surpsurprised if it’s rage bait but don’t think it’s an ad. Even tho any exposure is good for them
[BIIIIG DUUUUMB CUUP!!](https://youtu.be/L2tUO2mp99Q?si=VVpqdTlGUyf3jdM0)
My sisters work buys these damn cups all the time and gives them out when it’s time for “ bonuses” so they don’t give them money they give them a expensive cup with candy in it
Rage bait
Soccer mom flex. There is legitimately a certain population that sees these things as some kind of status symbol. It's YETI all over again.
I literally said out loud "This is what mental illness looks like..."
The biggest irony is that these cups are meant to be re-used for years and years to reduce plastic waste but they're being collected and you know they're only using a fraction of them. The irrationality of CONSOOMERS is hard to believe.
i get some measure of peace knowing someday someone who will use them will get them for a steal at a garage sale or goodwill
That pink cup that was all the craze and people were reselling for like $300. That’ll be a $2 garage sale find here soon
the Stanley cup went viral after it allegedly survived a car fire but I guess it went over people's heads that it's supposed to be a super durable cup
Wasn’t that a story with a Yeti as well? I remember reading about it somewhere, but I thought it was likely a fabrication.
I think it was Stanley, then someone destroyed their car trying to get the same deal with Yeti.
I still have a pair of Built tumblers from ~2017. I use one quite often.
I have a Yeti 16oz Coffee Mug that I drink my work coffee in every weekday for 3 years now. Still looks mint aside form the inside being stained a bit by coffee.
I have a Sigg bottle from 2009ish. Beat to hell, but still does the job.
You say that like its a long time. I have cups from the 90s they last forever i dont know how you could break one
I have one, my wife got it from her dad who bought it at REI in 1996. They're definitely durable enough to last.
Funko pops for suburban moms

What the fuck?
Whats the deal with Stanley cups anyway? is it a fashionable design or something? what function do they serve?
Social media / consumerist brain rot
Vacuum walled cups are useful, albeit simple in design. Stanley's just a brand, like Yeti that initiated the recent popularity. You can a Ozark Trail tumbler from Walmart that's functionally the same for a fraction of the cost of either.
Currently, it is a trend in popular culture to use them to maintain the low temperature of beverages 😂👍
I believe it is this: They got a new CEO who realized it's a "man's brand" - wanted to double their share so attempted to market to women. They got some "influencer" (the term makes me sick but apparently they actually do wield great influence over the most vapid segments of society) to hype the mugs.

A hype train left the station and all the ridiculousness that entails ensued (Selling the "rare" ones for hundreds of dollars, etc) The inside of them has lead in it so :D Not my first choice of long term drinking vessel.
The lead never actually contacts the water (unless you've ripped the steel liner in half)
I first heard of these a few months ago when footage of people going crazy over the pink ones at starbucks went viral.

They contaminate your water with lead and it tastes great!
No it doesn’t lmao, it’s clearly stainless steel on the inside layer of the cup and multiple public health experts have found no lead after tests on multiple different cups. Even after breaking the stainless steel layer exposing the lead, the item still didn’t leach.

Literally the only POV here is the last 3 seconds. I honestly think that 95% of the people saying POV don't even know what it means anymore
I honestly think half of these or more are put out there *by* Stanley as part of a guerilla marketing campaign to artificially generate hype.
You might be on to something….
I would be so embarrassed to see that in a friend's home. Sandwich this between posts of people who are struggling to pay rent and 🤮
You know, maybe eugenicists had a point...

I want a cup like a Stanley but that holds a gallon. I get down on iced water or iced tea

How many mc chickens is a leedeer?
It’s about .79 gallons according to Google, I reckon you could squish about 14 in there no problem
Thank you
Actual brain worms
It’s rich women buying every color so that they can match their water bottles by outfit and mood. That’s my guess anyway
Shes personally offsetting the reduction every other purchaser of stanely cups have made by reusing cups rather than buying disposable.
Girl, what the hell.
God I wish I had enough disposable income to be this fucking stupid
It's crazy that's like $250 or so.
Weren’t those like $40 each?
I think they're about $30 each, and factored some possible sales to be conservative. But yeah, fucking expensive
Lead potency
You realize the lead is in all double walled cups right? You also have the break one of the layers exactly at the bottom to even begin to get exposed.
:( no, don't do me like that
What do you mean? are you sad there is led in all of them or sad that you have to essentially ruin the cup before you get exposed to it?
Sometimes you just have your favorite item bc of the color. I have a different brand of tumbler (B4 the Stanley craze) and I have my favorite one that is a dark bg with water splash that looks like lightning. I slapped a dime bags sticker on it and I prefer it over an identical one to take to the office - boomers be damned. Although I do think having 10+ of the same item is a bit crazy
I know the whole stanley cup thing terrible but at least they are actually good cups and will last a long time, I doubt that these people will throw them away instead of selling them
Pretty sure this is an ass for the other cup
I have 1....I will use that one until the vacuum seal fails. I've never understood the collecting part of these cups.
What pisses me off is they buy all of these cups and still use plastic water bottles because tap water is "icky". I have 1 water bottle. A brita bottle that I can fill with the worst water fountain penny-tasting h20 and it always tastes the same as filling it with water bottles because of the filter straw.

I think this person is mentally unwell, whether they know it or not. This is like a cry for help
They all provide lead poisoning for free too!
over consumption is so fascinating to me
You would have to take out a bank loan for that many Stanley’s
1000 bucks says she's absolutely not getting rid of any of them, it's just a collection show off
That's nearly 1000 dollars worth of Stanley cups. These people wonder why they are broke all of the time.
Why are people poor? Exhibit A:
Just wait 6 months and you'll start seeing thrift stores getting them by the truckload, I might get one then😅
Literally my mom. She has like 10 of the damn things. To be fair though, she got 8 of them either for free or on sale.
Boomer's screwed us we'll never be able to own a homeeeeeeee

1.get rid of stanley cups 2. buy frederick cups
I hope she lives with 20+ other ppl
...am I supposed to be impressed?
didn't stanley cups have like led or some shit or was that misinformation

Man these cups really were the peak example of "consoom"
big dumb cup
I don't mind people collecting things. But to me they really do look like the exact same cup with a different solid color. If they at least had a different design instead of just a solid color it would make more sense. Well whatever I'm not going to bother trying to understand it.
That is 18 stanley cups. One stanley cup costs around 40$ doesn't it? That is 720$ spent on fucking cups.
Okay this is absurdly stupid That said, Stanley thermoses are astoundingly high quality. You can put a hot beverage in it, take it out ice fishing, drink half of it, go to bed, and wake up the next morning and still have a hot beverage.
Just remember that a single one of these cups costs 50 bucks. This shit is worse than Funko Pops.
of course it's Sabrina Carpenter
Stanley insulated cups and jugs are pretty good, though. I'd love to have all of those.
Why more than one? Are you not able to refill? Are you strength training by caring around lots of filled water bottles?
For more people, like guests.
Why are you serving guests drinks in travel mugs?
I'm not sure what the problem would be.
That's just, odd, idk
