Not really much different than when you couldn't find an in stock rifle chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor. Somebody decided the cups and the round were "better" and everyone had to have one.


Yeah but our influencers at least pretend to teach you useful shooting drills or provide pizza reviews - valuable services

Fact.... My daughter has four... I finally put the kybosh on it... Told them no more...

Unfortunately, my son needed a new water jug for wrestling after he left two at different venues out of state. I wanted one that fit in the side water bottle pouch of his wrestling bag, the 36 oz Yetis and Hydro Flask were 50 bucks, so I got him a Stanley 36oz Quick Flip bottle for $28. It's perfect, fits on his bag, and keeps ice all day.

Really this hit the nail on the head. It's popular right now to have one then the fad will move on to something else. To bad they are privately owned or else I would have added it to my white woman index fund. I have shares in brands that white women love.

Hive mind with women.



This is one time I support my wife following the hive mind. She used to waste money on bottled water. Even worse, she'd walk into a store and buy "Smart Water". I bought her two Stanley cups and now she fills them daily from the brita pitcher. They have paid for themselves sadly.

It ain't the people that are buying Yeti cups that are causing economic problems in this counrty.

It is the large amont of parasites, domestic and foreign, that are driving up our debt.

We got my daughter one for Easter. My wife got 1 for Christmas, and she got me one, too (didn't ask for it, but didn't feel the need to return it, either). In addition to the Yeti's we have collected over the years, the Hydroflask and generic $20 tumblers that we own, I told my wife that we were out of the cup business after daughter got hers. I use the same 3-4 cups every day for coffee, water, cocktails and the occasional Coke, and I wash them after each use. Everybody else lets mold and shite grow in theirs, use those NASTY reusable straws, and in general don't take care of them- I just refuse to wash theirs.

I just have two of the 20 oz tumblers and they fit the cup holder in the Suburban but not in the Focus.

Holy shite.... We live the same parallel life... My daughter and wife refuse to let me put theirs in the dishwasher, so it sits in the sink until they wash it and take it out... I'm not touching it. I use my same Yeti my nephew gave me probably 10 years ago, a knock off Yeti from China that actually keeps coffee hot longer than a Yeti, and a Kysek I won in a men's club meeting door prize.. I put all of them in the dish washer, and all are basically the same.

my wife has made the cabinet that holds glasses a disaster area. I like orderly cabinets and like to drink out of a glass vessel. I have a potential avalanche of metal shite falling out. We nay need to go see a mediator

Utah's getting a decent enough team, they might be a serious contender for Stanley cups in the next few years.

They are sitting in Stanley cup owner's cupboards collecting dust. How is 35 year old Becky going to be cool if she doesn't have the newest, popular item?
