You can block ads but you can’t block people in real life. Walk around and you’re bound to see them.

I’ve literally never seen this before. It’s like mugs for the 50+.

Stanley is a brand that makes things like thermal mugs. They were quality and lasted for years, but weren’t designed with looks in mind. They were favored by tradespeople because they’re hard on stuff and it just works. (I knew them for thermal mugs that held coffee.)
For reasons unknown to me, influencers got a hold of Stanley mugs, with a straw and handle. They became very popular. The company now makes them in many different colors and some people decide to collect them.

Any idea why they become viral? Pure herd mentality/influencer promotions?

They were pushed by some influencers and had somewhat popularity, then some influencer had their car catch fire and their Stanley cup survived, that went very very viral on TikTok.
And now I see generic Stanley like cups being sold in grocery stores. A true staple of virality

absolutely, they also go with the “style” thats popular at the moment. Theyre insanely impractical imo.

Why would you need a handle on an insulated mug,it just makes it uselessly larger.
