Heck even labubus have died off. In everyones rush to always one up everyone else they see, every trend is killed in months through burnout out and lack of room for escalation.

The trendy junk store at the mall still sells them and has a literal line to get in. I have no idea if Labubus are trending down or not, but they still seem pretty popular around here.

It probably depends on where you live. Trends usually peak in cities quicker than in rural areas. Often by the time people in the sticks are getting into a new trend, it's already "old" in big cities. At least, from what I've observed.

Oh man. For my sweet 16 my parents gave me a sippy cup, because I spilled a drink a few days before. That's it. A cup for babies. I cried a lot that day. I wasn't even expecting anything huge, maybe a charm necklace or something. It hurt that it was my first milestone birthday and that is what they got me.

I used my Stanley long long before they were cool and it survived until after. Stanle's are eternal but the fickle youths forget this in their arrogance.

I refilled my old Stanley at work, filling half of it with ice, at the end of Thursday. By the time I clocked out on Friday, after a full day of use and subsequent refills, there was still ice clinking around in it. Not gonna lie, the insulation in that thing is incredible. It does easily acquire dents and dings though - after two years of use, the bottle can't stand upright without wobbling anymore.

But I was given it as a gift, so I can't complain. A water bottle is a water bottle to me.
