My wife's grandfather had one of the original Stanley thermoses, which had a lifetime guarantee. When it finally fell apart and needed to be replaced, they no longer made that same cup. They sent him a comparable replacement, but more interestingly they asked for the damaged one to put in their museum. I have no idea where said museum is, but it apparently contains the cup of my wife's grandfather.

So, why would you want to publically display your product not living up to a lifetime of use and abuse? It's supposed to be guaranteed for a lifetime.

It is crazy how a cup that miners had once used have become a status symbol of not only class but of fashion, but this only unlocked a memory of mine where kids literally used their Stanley cups to beat the shit out of each other during school fights. It was usually girls, but there was once a fight between two dudes where one of them grabbed a random Stanley cup and bashed it into the other's face. This changed people's trajectory into fights so bad, that if you wanted to fight someone you would have to make sure they didn't have their cup near them, or I would hear people ask, "Do they have a Stanley cup?" Not a lot of people had Stanley cups at my school, but the shit almost got banned at some point, until somehow people stopped using them as weapons and went back to the normal fist fights and hair pulling; I think it somehow became a trend at my school to use them in fights and then it died soon after.

[@ShadowOfMachines]

I had one Stanley thermos I bought maybe nine years ago. One of those that had the lid being a cup. It is my favorite trip thermos. I can leave it in the car during 100°F weather and it keeps my water cold for days. It's a good product, I don't think I'll need to buy another one for a decade or two. But hey, if I need another one there will be plenty of cheap used Stanley's on the market.

[@lonelyfroggy5787]

As someone who works part time in an elementary school, let me tell you, the whole kids are being bullied for not having these thing is not a joke. Stanleys have been at the forefront of most of the drama amongst the girls especially this semester (I'm not kidding, little girls are creating class systems over thermoses) and these stupid ass cups are the bain of my existence currently. No child can sit still with them and they end being such a noisy distraction clattering on desks and getting dropped all the time. It's worse than when Hydroflasks were a big thing because unlike those, Stanley's aren't spill proof, anyone who tells you they are is lying, and the kids that have one refuse to go anywhere without them like they're some sort of family heirloom and are so pretentious they won't clean up spills. Other schools in the area are talking about banning metal water bottles. Edit:This was just me sharing my personal experience as someone in childcare and did not need to turn into how little kids nowadays are weak and sensitive and that little girls are entilted. While I have my issues and personal grievances with some of them, those kids are some of the most amazing kids I know, yes they have their flaws but who doesn't? And also, they're kids, guys, come on now. Most of their negative behavior I chalk up to their parents. *Every* generation of teachers have stories, things to vent about. (I'm sure at least one teacher you had complained about you in their private life at some point) At the end of the day I would not trade my job getting to work with them and be a part of their lives for the world.

​@@notnowhansMy area had the rubber wristband trend back in 2006-2007, from the "Go Strong" or whatever Lance Armstrong bands, to different phrases, it was a phenomenon for quite a while 😂 the difference was nobody got bullied for not having them, in fact it was more likely the kids wearing 10 on each wrist were more likely to be made fun of🤣

This is where a lot of problems start. If the schools had the authority to tell kids their behavior is wrong, regardless of what the parents think, and if bullying was treated like the mental illness it is, adults would be better behaved.

I've already gotten into fights over this stupid moron cup. Get a consumerism-rotted brain and combine it with my low tolerance to bullshit and someone's walking out with black eyes.

[@willferrellssweetnips]

@backwoodsjunkie08 In a way I am a little envious of these Stanley Cup sheep people. To be so mentally bereft of intelligence or self awareness that you fearlessly chase the latest fad for comfort has the same energy as a flock of dodo's running off a cliff. Can you imagine the ignorant bliss these people must be living in day in and day out? 😆 That must be so nice. So I salute you, Stanley Cup Mouthbreathers, for keeping the bar low for the rest of us. #Blessed

I'm a thrifter myself and every morning I come to the usual shop I visit and there is this huge flock of people, and always the same people, standing inches away from the front door waiting for the store to open so they can run in to buy used shoes or electronics for a few dollars and flip them for hundreds. It's a little insane the lengths people will go for certain things. I even started seeing Stanley Cups at this thrift shop in the collectable section for $25.

I replay my experience with the cup incident over and over in my head nonstop. It was late when the sirens went off, a storm of which my city hadn't experienced since before I was even born was rolling through I rushed me and my three kids down to the storm cellar pushing past the biting, battering winds as best I could, but before I could lock the door a most terrible realization struck at my very core, more terrible than the screaming winds themselves. My cups were still inside the trailer. Out of fairness we all drew straws to see who would brave the storm, I drew the longest which meant that all of my children would have to be the ones to brave the storm. I opened up the cellar door and hurried them outside with the greatest of expedience and urgency... It wasn't long before the whipping and growling of the wind grew too much so I did the only logical thing I could do and locked the cellar, that's when it happened... I could hear the screams of my children outside begging for me to open up, but in my purest form of terror I couldn't bring myself to release the latch (Not even for my cups.) It wasn't long before all sounds were drowned out by the tearing howls. The next day to my horror my kids were no where to be seen so I went to my torn down trailer ripping at the debris until my body ached and my hands bled. piece by piece I tore away until I was granted a miracle that will always stay with me. A miracle that can only prove God's infinite mercy. All three of my cups survived the storm, buried underneath the wreckage that was once my home, my shelter. I really can't thank Stanley cups enough for making a product more durable than my children's bones.

[@JSab247]

My 10 year old wanted a Stanley last fall and I said no way I am paying that much for a cup (I would never buy one for myself either). She told her friends straight up that her mom said it's stupid to pay that much for the cup and they laughed and went on with their day. It wasn't a money thing because I spend hundreds on her sports and other things she needs, I just won't do it because it's ridiculous. She finally convinced her grandma to buy her one. As a parent we have to be the role models and it's these Sephora and Stanley mothers that are the problem.

Everyone was talking about it yesterday and the general consensus is that Stanley’s will go out of style like every water bottle craze, but maybe they shouldn’t be allowed at school (the girl will prob be charged with assault WITH A DEADLY WEAPON) but my school doesn’t gaf so we’ll see what happens lmao

I still don't know what to do with myself when I'm around them, because all they do is talk about themselves, such as what they made for dinner the night before, or how they passed a blue car on the road on the way to work, all while being incredibly animated about it, but I'm just so happy to not be seen as a workplace shooter for not having a stanley cup. thank god for stanley cups even if I am non verbal and autistic.
