I feel like they came out of nowhere too. I had never heard of Stanley outside of my old man duck blind thermos and then over the last 2 or so weeks I've seen them around or mentioned like 50 times.
These things have been a craze longer than that. They were sold out everywhere 2 or 3 Christmases ago (my wife wanted to buy one for her mom).
The new craze is because these housewife's two favorite things have combined (Target and Stanley cups).

I believe 312 was the homicide count for the City of Houston at the end of November
not sure what it is for all of Harris County
No, just a judgment call that somebody was about to get shot over one of these stanley cups.Captain Winky said:
City Under Siege worthy because there was a cop in the video?
Same! I had never heard of them til that "suburban mom starter kit" video made its way around. Obviously they were already a thing at that time...but I had no idea. Most humans are such f'in sheep.Quote:

I bought one of the kids a Stanley thermos a few years back. Who knew I was such a trendsetter?
I have my dads Stanley thermos from when he bought it back in the 1970's. Now kids are trying to pass it off as a new trend.Furlock Bones said:
This is the same Stanley company that has been around for 100 years. in 2019, their revenue was $74mm. in 2023, it was $750mm thanks to idiots.

The idea that people need to have a 3 days supply of cold liquids with them if they take 1 step outside their house, car, etc is one of the top 1500 things that annoys me about todays society.

Houston really has gone to the dogs. Two hooligans caused $350,000 in damage at a car dealership.

What's even funnier is they caught those dogs and put them up for adoption! One of them was even a pitbull.
Here's a video of people fighting over Stanley cups. I didn't have this on my 2024 bingo card.MAS444 said:

I say this to my wife all the time when She worries about the kids waterbottles being left behind. I guess water fountains don't exist anymore. NO kids carried around waterbottles when i was growing up.
