There is a water jug & mug manufacturer named Stanley. Apparently these “Stanley” brand cups went viral on TikTok, and TikTok users proceeded to buy them all up in a craze. The meme shows homer sitting next to the championship trophy of the National Hockey League, which is called the Stanley cup (no relation whatsoever to the Stanley name brand).
I bought a Sigg in 2009. I will never forget. It was the first aluminum reusable water bottle in existence AFAIK. It came from Switzerland and I didn’t have much money at all but it was so important to me that I have this and I ordered it through the mail. Am a hydrohomie and I used that thing until it died 💦
Love the thoroughness of this. The only detail I could add is that the pink version pictured is a Starbucks exclusive version. And if an expensive cup wasn’t enough, there is a market for add-ons to the cup like phone holders and shoulder straps.
TikTok is probably the most effective marketing platform in decades. Probably this generation’s equivalent of G.I. Joe and Transformer commercials cartoons.

It’s the next Nalgene Canteen. Get off my lawn.
It next cupped hands. Unga bunga.
Pfft, cupped hands? I just hold the water in my mouth until I get thirsty
Damn, that’s so progressive! I just hold it in my bladder until someone needs a drink!
It’s the next Sigg?
