The CULT of Stanley Tumblers Explained 

edward bernays is smiling in his grave for sure

That’s what speaking hours a day scrolling through tiktok will do to you.

Just remember, those people have the same rights as you 😂

Yes! We’re so easily distracted.

@@gildedpeahen876His shifty ass is happy as hell. He did all of this and made it normal.

Look up the origin of teddy bears. A trend from a hundred years ago.

Late stage capitalism

If I got a cup for Christmas as a kid, I’d be smiling through gritted teeth

​@@Jellycheezlook, another clown that blames capitalism for everything.

@@houseofghouls1471 Dude I got robotix when I was a kid I was so happy. If my parents got me a boring ass thermos that wasn't even thermos brand with Wolverine on it I'd have definitely not been enthused.

Seriously, the look on her face before even opening the Yeti.. as she's surrounded by gifts.. utterly disheartening !! Total brat. Should have not bought her it at all as a lesson 😂

yeah that video was sickening. She doesn't deserve anything.

So true! Anytime I acted like a little girl my mom sent me to my room to, "Think about why I'm acting this way." Fortunately it didn't take many thinking sessions.

That isnt about "acting like a little girl" it is about the rude ungrateful , spoiled child that those parents have created and continue to encourage by buying her 2 gifts just so they can take a video to put online so they can get likes and views and validation from total strangers and total strangers can all repost it and get likes and views and validating from total strangers for posting about it . smdh @@bl8388

It's the parents and kids alike behaving badly. It's so insane! It's a CUP....

Yup

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

💯

I agree 100%. This is what is wrong with kids today

Yup. She would have been taken with all her Christmas gifts to give them away at the closest woman's shelter. I would have kept clothes. Everything else..including toys in the stocking..would have gone to children in a shelter. And she would be in the car with me.

I saw a video of a grown adult woman behaving the same way when her boyfriend gifted her a yeti instead of a Stanley. Pure insanity

Honestly just steer her clear of tiktok for as long as you can. I have seen adults acting like literal zombies while using this app.

There needs to be an experiment to see if theyll choose the Switch or the Stanley cup.

Honestly as much as I don’t support the craziness over these cups, a 10 year old being excited about a water bottle is a lot better than the many other alternatives kids are into now days (drugs, smoking, etc).

​@@jazlyn2721There will always be kids into that stuff, definitely not just a nowadays thing.I was a preteen in the early 90's and lots of kids were drinking, smoking, using drugs etc. As for the cups, I personally don't think it's bad that kids want them, its a trend and kids will always follow those just like my gen did with whatever was trendy when I was a kid,but it is a little strange. I remember screaming with happiness when I got my favorite album for Christmas when I was 9. A kid screaming over a cup just seems odd, lol Then again I see adults doing the same thing and I don't understand it,lol. Guess whatever makes people happy 🤷🏼‍♀️

It's not bad to want a random cup as a child. What's bad is wanting a $50 cup and having parents who don't teach you the value of things beyond silly fads. So many better things you can buy or do with that money, even for the child. However, if the child sees the parent being the same type of foolish person who buys things without thinking, then oh well...

And then she switches to "stop her". Like, why?

Any bottle will have mold over time unless you clean it, doesnt matter how expensive

I mean seriously there's so many cups exactly like the Stanley band that are way better at being mold resistant and don't leak, and still have a straw and handle..... Stanleys suck, imo

I’ve been in a number of cults, both as a leader and as a follower. You make more money as a leader, but you have more fun as a follower.

The same woman will take home ... "You have a bruised face." "He beats me cuz he loves me." "He doesn't work and spends all your money." "It isn't ideal, but you get used to it." ^ the type of people who will make excuses upon excuses for their decisions.

Yeah...that did my head in, lol! It's like these dumb bitches have never heard of Milton tablets or similar. You know...that stuff that you use to disinfect baby bottles and gear? Yeah...those, lol! Use them religiously for kiddies drinking bottles, plastic or silicone straws, or anything else that is otherwise hard to clean. Not hard, people....

Exactly

More likely they have maxed out credit cards

Let’s not forget the resell

While the poor starve.

Unfortunately, prices of groceries will inflate, even without these stupid TikTok moms buying stupid tumblers

Gimmie the B&D over the cup/ flask

Shush, you might just start a new TikTok trend amongst these brain dead zombies

I don’t see anyone acting like this in designer brand stores 😂

Dont give them ideas bro 😂😂😂😂

every business is about to do something like this. when something proves extremely lucrative in eurocentric culture, all the parasites start their exploitation parade.

All by design. Very dystopian. I wish we could make 1984 fiction again. 😎

This status symbol cup reminds me of when the status symbol bottled water, Evian, was in fashion over 30 years ago. Evian spelled backwards is Naive! 😂😂😂

there is a stanley cup with a leak proof lid.

Bahaaaaa!!!!

They already have that. It's just the regular stanley.

​@@iode9999yup

@shawnstafford7809They made them in different colors and started to market them to younger people.

I'd be so happy if I got a yeti. Those aren't cheap, and they're better looking than a Stanley imo

I’d rather my kid be honest than feign excitement for my benefit. Sounds kinda weird to expect that from kids honestly.

She really annoyed me. That is the height of rude entitled consumerism.

@@Amanda-xx7sjI think kids screaming at gifts is gross

What she doesn't realize is, the Yetti is like $75, and better...

I'd kill for a 10$ Stanley! I love their thermos and they're so well built. but the hip tik-tok Sippy-cup tumbler is just ridiculous. Can't put it in your bag, or else it spills, the lids are annoying to clean and to replace. It's perfectly built for the wine moms to hide their booze in public.

​@@givemeyournachos BINGO ! You just nailed it ! That's why they have become so popular, because I don't know of any women that even remotely drink enough of anything else to need that big of a tumbler !

I have that thermos for like very long time ,set on shelf now, no one using it. This people crazy .

I thought it looked well made…until I realized that this ridiculously expensive giant cup isn’t even spill-proof! lol No longer want one…🙄

I bought one for five bucks lol

Absolutely, where do you think she learned to act arrogant and entitled over a trendy item?

Its not even arrogant and entitled because the Yeti costs as much as the Stanley does, it's being gullible and a follower. It is one of those times where getting them nothing would be better than getting them the wrong thing, though

I think all 3 of my kids wanted the cool “it” item of their time, and yes I bought some of those things for them, because it brought them joy. The pressure to fit in is huge for kids and sadly it’s starting happening younger and younger. Seriously though if you can afford it, is it really that big a deal? I’m not saying that this girl shouldn’t have properly thanked whoever bought her the Yeti cup, absolutely that needed to happen.

@@traceydotts7842 as long as you're not having to buy them EVERY color, or new TRENDY cup each time. One trendy, "fit in with friends" item for Christmas is one thing. An overabundance, is another. And yes, Manners still count.

its crazy i guess im one of the few who always did my own thing and didnt care if people liked me or not i was alway the outcast kid like at lunch i was always the kid that sat by themselves i had like two friends that would sit with me but they also tried to fit in with the other kids and one of them wouldnt hang out with me at school cause they were getting made fun of but as i get older i find my faith in us as people just dwindling

i'm surprised with the amount of trolling online that somneone hasn't decided to use peoples stupidity against them and tried to make something like trash bags trendy

It’s just the monogram, hair bow set

First it was Nalgene. Get it right. LOL

To be fair the yeti has been very useful for my trades family, but it’s not worth any of this

@@americanbadass88 Derelicte by Mugatu!

That is bullshit.

Yes. I bought 2 a year or 2 ago. It is a different style than the ones these people are so crazy for.

Exactly

@@Teresa-ch3og it's a better style

people will buy anything if an influencer has it...... 🤦‍♀

It’s because they were always that hideous army green color 😂 Guess they wised up. Paint it red and everyone will flock to it 😂

Finally a normal 10 year old!

You're raising your daughter correctly :)

yeah man the thermos bottles are amazing, they hold hot coffee or tea for 24 hours or more. But these cups are crazy stupid.

​​@@Mr_Foekohow are the Stanley cups stupid when they do the same thing just shaped differently?

​@@8luvbugbecause they are overpriced, impractical and they don't do the same thing at all I have had a stanley thermos for years and its purpose is so i can make a pot of coffee and keep it for 3 days and it doesnt spill, then i put it in my also leak proof coffee cup

@@Rmc263 Like I said the Stanley does the same thing.

@@8luvbug but they don't. For example you can't put them in a bag or let them tip over. I'm not saying they are bad, just overpriced for what they are.

I am sure you were like gee thanks at first 😆

Same here.😂 A family member sent 3 of these for all the ladies in the family and I was so confused! I was like I have so many cups😅 Especially when my 11 year old and 19 year old were soooo excited😂😂

You are not a nurse if you don't have a Stanley Cup apparently.

Don't follow the worldly trends follow Jesus Christ today There is no security or hope with out Jesus Christ in this world come and repent of all sins today Today is the day of salvation come to the loving savior Today repent and do not go to hell Come to Jesus Christ today Jesus Christ is only way to heaven Repent and follow him today seek his heart Jesus Christ can fill the emptiness he can fill the void Heaven and hell is real cone to the loving savior today Today is the day of salvation tomorrow might be to late come to the loving savior today John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus

Those tumblers are like trucker tumblers. I feel like someone won a bet he couldn't sell trucker travel tumblers to teen girls.

Ikr. $45 to keep water cold

Agreed, but this isn't a new issue, but something that's been around and growing since consumerism became a thing. Remember the Pokemon craze? That was during the 90s when a horrible war was going on elsewhere. Products will always be used as a way to distract and placate the masses.

Trump2024!

Capitalism Clowns 😂

Go live in a socialist country. I hear all the rage is about bread being in stock.

Honestly I think we're closer than a few meals

@@BigMacAttack83 More like a snack or two.

@@toybarons 24 hrs without internet and it'll all go tits up

You expressed exactly how I felt watching this Idiocracy in action.

They did react to TP that way a couple years ago. Screw people.

😂 Women and girls are destroyed by social media. There is no men or boys in this video except that thief, the Mexican boy, and like 3 dads. Everyone else is a girl or woman. They can't have an independent thought and need to follow every social trend. It's sickening.

It’s very troubling. Kids should be playing with toys, not skincare.

Tbf, have u seen the toys their offering? Todays kids are going to need a lot more stimulation than that. I figured toys would’ve combined AI by now.

@@ll2323 Fk a toy. Get me a phone btch (2024 12 year old internal monologue lol).

Sinister...or dystopic? Sinister seems a bit extreme.

It leaks?? My Hydraflow tumbler doesn't leak how odd.

​@@windyhawthorn7387Heck yeah!! I also have one. When I go into my car, I legit put my mug on the floor and there's not even a drop spilled.

I have a cheap contigo tumbler from Walmart. It's insulated, metal body, does not leak. lol

It just says that you can sell all sorts of overprized sh... as long as it has "good" marketing.

⁠@@windyhawthorn7387Interesting! My Vintage Lucy Curved Chrome Starbucks cup hasn't leaked either!

As a non-American, this trend is one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen. It's almost depressing.

Let’s be real they’ll be in land fills.

@@monicanavarro2906 I'm American & think it's disturbing and insane, too. Why can't people think for themselves instead of following trends? Or at least act like a decent person instead of fighting over an object. So sad.

@@miriamrobarts True, the hostility and rudeness is worse than the obsession... and all for what? For an object that just last year they'd consider as stylish as a Gatorade bottle. 🤦‍♀️

Which explains why the economy is in the dump... Priorities, people!

@@v4v819 Uh no it doesn't. It's because of bad economic policy.

Madness 😮

american sickness. thanks to social media

“Their value.” lol I remember back in the 90’s when people thought they’d be able to retire off of their RARE beanie babies someday…🙄😂

Facts!! 👍👍

Right! A lot of our dads and grandparents have been quietly using their thermoses since before these Stanley Cup girls were even born!

It was disturbing

I don't think he even knew who she was. And is it more disturbing that he didn't, or not?! Get me off this planet 😂

​@@CommentingSomeMore I absolutely agree.

yeah if I was that kid's parents I'd be very concerned.

​@@CommentingSomeMoreExactly my first thought on it.

OG

The straw ones are so unsanitary.

I have the green one too. I can’t believe that Americans are so easily influenced.

Hammer tone green goes hard.

​@@sylux70ikr classic

Just make sure it’s not damaged as they do tend to contain lead at the bottom 😬

exactly

People got trampled over for those ugly dolls.

Yep. And the Tickle Me Elmo in the 90’s. People literally fighting over them in stores.

I work at a thrift store, and we have been selling the original Stanley thermos cups all the time. Next year, we will probably sell way more of the tumblers because they aren't as practical as the original.

I think I can already see these cups at random thrift stores lol

Same I've been using my Yeti Jugg and Coffee Yeti cup for 2 years now

To these people in the video yeti is too 2023

To these people in the video yeti is too 2023

I purchased one as a young railroad worker about a decade ago ..if you told me that short time ago my thermos i carried to work on a daily basis would be a trendy thing for 13 year old girls 10 years later i'd say BS 😂 Oh well, i give it a month to become old news and irrelevant.

Better keep an eye on it before someone grabs it n sells it on eBay 😂

killed?!

I went to Catholic school and had to wear a uniform. So kids just used purses and shoes as status symbols instead of clothes. It’s always something.

uniforms never banned the same shoes kids got killed over

Yea why i don't even try, i was there for all the fads i don't care jordans are gross and now mostly worn by those who'll steal a soda or something else and still say "i get money" funny enough i stop people who have jobs to homeless that try it worse get way too much verbal disrespect for being alert. I seen the tides change and all bought into iPhones (given how anti consumer apple is) all so scared to pony up when their back glass breaks to oddly don't go to third party repair shops that beat apple and what they say is "unfixable" and still loads line up for the "new" one with less features then Android less customization and so on.

That’s how it was when I was growing up too ( in my neighborhoods anyway ). People got robbed or jumped for a pair of Jordan’s everyday. This was before the dumbed down cell phone era. 80s/90s.

This is why not a single woman can be a great comedian...

😂😂

Yah a lot of Stanleys popping out in hospitals as we speak.

I use their cookset for camping, it was always cheap but good quality, and due to this incident the prices of even that have temporarily skyrocketed

frrrrrrr

Future cereal killer 😂

Lil man was hilarious 😂

"I want this lady in my basement."

I started to die at that part

"Utah moms" is something that really confuses me about social media. Who is making Mormons "influencers" and why?

@@ChristinaFromRU-vid When I think of Utah moms, I think of MLMers. (Multi-Level Marketing moms)

@@jpt610 yeah but those MLMers are Mormons too. Its really fascinating to me. Its a really small segment of America's population but they dominate social media marketing and direct marketing.

​@Christina-fw9dz it fascinates the hell out of me too. I've noticed the Utah Moms tend to fall under the MLM umbrella too, but also a growing trend is the Trad Wife culture, thats big in the Mormon regions. Which if you take it a step further, absolutely has political roots. It's crazy how they're all tied together! This whole thing has been so interesting to watch 😂

@@MelissaMayhem99 it all feels like one big Church of Latter Day Saints marketing effort. Like "see how aesthetic and wholesome we are?" Its a really bizarre aspect of the internet to me because influencers are always selling something and in this case I truly think church membership is the long-con. There is something so odd about their online presence that I can't place my finger on exactly. It feels like they artificially saturate apps like Tiktok like are the masses really clamoring to see old-timey housewives or is The Machine shoving this content down our throats?

Why did you buy into the hype?

So refreshing to see this take! Moderation is key

It's pretty wild how perceptions change. I remember too when carrying a stanely would be seen as embarrassing outside of most scenarios.

He was an OG. He did it before it was cool.

Supreme showed that people will buy anything with a simple logo on it so...... (they sold a brick with Supreme on it for $150+ or something) never was a hype beast but yea.

Kinda hoping for the book ends.. because that would at least mean that people are actually READING again!!! Lol

How old are you? This has happened many times before in the past over various items. This isn’t new.

@@ALT-vz3jn yea, fads that kids go crazy over has always been a thing.. typically with things like toys, clothes, games and things that made sense for kids to be interested in but over something as mundane as a cup??🤨🤨 I'm 36 and that's new to me...🤷🤷

@@enigmaticallis3110 And it's ridiculous enough when it's something like a toy. People should use their brains instead of following trends.

Good you are properly hydrated.

My cup 10 years ago kept my ice cold for 24 hours.

Sell it online for $1,000 and split it with MIL. 😂

I got a no name metal water bottle from Target on clearance for $3.99. I can put ice in it at night and it'll still be there the next day. I'm waiting for them to on clearance again so I can get one or two more to stock up.

@@Corpst right? It's not a new concept. My Costco Thermoflask keeps it just as cold and it doesn't leak like the Stanley 😂

@@carolwilliams8840 that's the thing, the Stanley isn't revolutionary and it should be for $45! I prefer my Thermoflask because it keeps it cold and it doesn't leak 😂 I need to check out the target clearance section next time I go!!

😂😂😂 Yep They had to lock'em in the freezer 😂

My granny managed to get the whole set.

Yeah proving its not worth the hype

these were mainly people at I think, hoping to resell the so called limited items.

My gma still thinks her ziplock sealed Beanie Baby collection will be valuable some day. I gave mine to my baby who tore the tags off, drool, dirty & heavy play use. She freaked out & refused to speak to me. I resolved by gifting her an Hermes Birkin Bag & explained how that’s a real investment piece 👌❤🎉

I was shocked to see how much her tickets cost. I’m not a fan of Taylor Swift but I had to look it up because I saw someone on RU-vid that went to her concert TWICE🙄

If they drink that much water they need to include electrolytes including sodium. It's bad when they put soda, or juice in it since the 40 oz size gets them a serious sugar spike and crash.

Your "friends" are idiot sheeple. They have no will nor mind of their own. They are easily led and cannot think critically for themselves. Ever. I am so sorry. Just don't be like them and you should be ok. :P

Taylor is doing straight-up rituals on stage. Why do parents let their kids go partake in witchcraft? Watching someone do a ritual is still giving passive consent to it.

I never got into the trends , I rather spend my money on travel,books plants my kid. Not paying for these stupid trends. These idiotic followers . If I want water I go to the tap

exactly. IT's supposed to practical...not something to show off or collect. SO weird.

I have my dad's old Stanley thermos and a cute lavender thermos I got when I was a teenager. I also have a Stanley coffee cup that was a total regret buy because while I still have it somewhere the design was horrible they don't make it anymore and the cup made me feel stupid.

Hi, fellow military brat! Though I never asked, I always wondered if my Dad’s green Stanley had some sort of military connection (he’s retired Air Force). I think his Stanley is great; it’s really cool-looking, it’s sturdy, doesn’t leak, and does its job to perfection.

Your sister in law is dumb.

That’s not the same model that all the kids want.

It's ok, they're just fixated on the one model with the straw. You're safe with the old-school one!

I kinda did know, but only through actual funny comedy skits for a 30 second video. But I still didn't get it. If I'm out of the loop for normie stuff like trendy name brands and cups. Then it must be a good thing.

Very dumb, blind and want to fit in so bad! i pay attention to things and seen changes in style and the tracking devices (our smart phones) to Apple has a hold on way too many while being anti consumer charging abused prices for less and sued third parties doing what they say "couldn't" do. Then pairing basically each part to the motherboard and serialized each part so a simple break is a hassle so you "have to" buy a new one. a battery swap or just swapping the back glass iOS gives those "unknown part" messages so you'll only go to them for fixes! it's evil.

It's 99% loser women.

Don't be a hater.

Well, they are keeping you employed, so keep em coming.

Agree, Tervis has had these for years.

It's pathetic really.

It's the fad of the moment. Something else will come along soon.

@@kdbee6086 always! It's human nature

Something dark behind it. It's like when Wilkenson almost went bankrupt and made people who came out of the chill 80s, believe in the 90s, that it was a crime for women to have any sorts of body hair, just to sell more razors and knew females were easier to manipulate, when it comes to shopping. Everytime when something becomes so popular, even though it has been there for decades, i feel like there is a powrrful subliminal underneath it.

I love the quote! One of my favorite series!😊 Yes humanity is doomed

@@Sarika38 yay! It’s awesome that you knew the reference!!! One of my favorites too. :D

I’ve been waitin’, towel in hand. But seriously… Why…how are people so easily misled? It’s diabolical how easily we can be swayed into buying things we don’t need just bc someone else says it’s cool. I will stick with my $6 Dollar General cup, thank you very much!!!

@@bloodysweetzombiegirl much agreed! Truly mind boggling and sad.

People used to think that digital watches were a pretty neat idea. I think we'll get through this.

I actually watched a documentary on here about that the other day as it was just before my time. But add pet rocks and all the consumer fads after an its really no surprise to see the behavior continued. The part that actually shocks me is how aggressive people get over these things. I always remember that LegiQn quote "Oh ya call it black friday well we call it red Tursday go in for a toaster come out inna casket"

I was going to mention beany babies and furbies too, but these days, it seems more shallow than ever. People wanting something for themselves is kinda understandable, but wanting something just to show off that you have it, especially now to online strangers... i cannot sympathize anyone not getting it. I've come to dislike so much about the internet, for all the ways it's changed people for the worst. It used to be referred to as "the information superhighway". Now i think we'd be better off without it, even if we went just a year or so, imagine the difference that would make.

​@@derealized797 don't forget tickle me elmo 😂

Pretty much, all want to fit in so bad they forget and get blinded by the rush and fomo of not having the current it thing! it's sad. and *NO DOUBT ALL WALKED PAST THESE VERY CUPS PROB LAST MONTH* lmao

😂 Boys and men don't act like this. If you actually payed attention, almost everyone in these videos is a woman or girl.

Has it been 8 years since Yeti exploded? That was my first thought, "Don't all these people still have their Yeti tumblers!?" That was the whole thing, they were supposed to last a lifetime.

@@SalisburySnake It started going “viral” around that time, if not a little before, iirc. Mine has “Merry Christmas 2015 From ____” on it (name left blank as a joke since they had one made for everyone & just Sharpied a name on each).

Yeah I had to look up the full videos. They were pretty funny.

Yeah, but it would be really difficult to make sure your production is ready & often the fad dies as quickly as it started, so then you're stuck with a bunch of product that is old news. It can be great for a company if they know how to prepare for it, but I wouldn't be surprised if it could bankrupt a company that doesn't know how to plan for it. Also, it would be great to make a lot of money, but honestly, I'd be embarrassed to be part of this kind of insanity.

@@miriamrobarts yeah, I don’t want to use his business smarts to peddle crap, but the stuff I believe in instead. There’s far too many good products out there that aren’t known because of poor marketing, and lots of terrible things that are selling well because of great marketing.

I’m glad my local Target isn’t selling Stanley’s yet ._.

Oh and I barely even knew what a Stanley was. Yes. I’m not kidding. I thought people just wanted that type of cup. Then I saw these frickin people saying they bought ‘fake Stanleys’ and too many people kept buying them and I’m just annoyed how everyone’s obsessed-

Exactly. How many plastic cups have we all gotten from McDonalds and Starbucks in our lifetimes and trashed?? I literally have the same $1-2 plastic soda cups from McDonald's restaurants and I use those EVERY SINGLE DAY instead of throwing them away!!! 🙃 😂People are SO DUMB IT'S UNREAL. We are DESTROYING the only planet we have. There IS NO OTHER PLANET.

Ohhhh this is spot on!!

For a lot of people, yes. It's what you choose to make of it (who do you follow, how much time & value you give it, etc.)
