I work from home and drink from mugs and I don’t tiktok, so this whole trendy cup thing is really confusing me.
Do they uncurse bad water or something?

Again from the article
"Just as every girl had a Hydro Flask to match their backpack, her mom would have her own color of the Quencher.”
They partnered with ‘influencers’ i.e. idiots, to promote this, it worked.
This moron, who is a Teacher, was proud of her injuries. “But it’s worth it, I think. I got the cup.”
I would not let her go to the toilet on her own without a rope.
I could drink a slab of beer and still have better judgement that she does.
I think you’re confused to my point.
I’m saying older kids are bringing Stanley’s to school now, but they’re way less functional for students than those hydroflasks (22oz versions, which is what your quote was talking about… the trend from a few years ago – see VSCO girls) As a teacher watching the trend happen, because the trends always hit extra hard in American middle school, these are a particular annoyance.
Her first graders have the 22oz or less hydroflasks that close the straw so they don’t spill, fit in the backpacks, and don’t take much space on desks. The new trend is specifically 44oz Stanley’s with exposed straw and skinny base to fit in cupholders. These are not conducive features for a classroom-transitioning school setting is ALL I’m saying.
I get that you’re angry at this other teacher for wanting one for herself and you think she’s a moron. Trends and influencers are not new things. There’s always a trend. The teacher and her mom from the article are both adults, though, so nothing to do with anything I’m talking about.
Well you said this ‘it’s rich teens and preteens’ which is not at all the target market, nor what is talked about in the article. They may be buying them, but the driver is the person with bruised knees in the linked article.
Apologies if I am getting this wrong, I frequently do.
