      As a stanley cup lover, bit a person who spent nearly a year carefully thinking over the purchase before buying one I picked Stanley because. 1. I love the handle, I don't like hydro flasks and other water bottles because they don't have a handle. 2. They're a cup not a bottle, i cant drink out of bottles without spilling. But that's me and why I spent MONTHS agonizing over buying one.

      @AliMJohnson if you know Stanley as a brand you know their products are usually a 1 time purchase. I've had the same stanley thermos for 10 years and I haven't even had to replace the silicone gaskets yet...and you can replace just the cap. My dad has had the same Stanley thermos for 40 years. I chose a Stanley with its high price point because for me it met my wants and would be a 1 time purchase.

    You should do a video about over consumption. I find it fascinating that people collect body care that will just go bad and how much can one body possibly go through? Or people that have 100 eye pallets and 75 blushes. It’s becoming such a thing to collectitems that can eventually go bad. self-care is just turning into buying massive amounts of body care products instead of actually being self-care.

    Crocs are very silly looking imo. It goes right in the direction on comfortable overriding proper dress. I miss the times when teachers dressed professionally. My kids’ teachers wear jeans, stretch pants, hoodies, and crocs. I think it’s sad and a part of the degradation of society.
    There’s DEFINITELY a way to dress presentably and be comfortable. Im only 40. I know I probably sound older. 😂
    When a CUP becomes a status symbol- you know it’s social media winning! Social media is mostly one big ad. Remember when we hated commercials? Now we can’t get enough in its new disguised format.
    The mirror looks like a maxi pad.

    • @Living.minimal
      @Living.minimal  Год назад +3

      Finding that balance between looking sharp and feeling comfy is possible. I'm in my 30s and sometimes feel like an old soul in this changing fashion scene!
      Social media has definitely transformed how we perceive things. It's crazy how everyday items become symbols of status. And yeah, those ads - they've gotten sneakier, blending seamlessly into our feeds. Haha, that mirror comparison really made me chuckle! Sometimes, the oddest things trigger unexpected thoughts, right?

  • @1928House_Washington
    @1928House_Washington Год назад +5

    I picked a Stanley because I needed a cup that fit in my cup holder and was going to be a 1 time purchase. Stanley items are expensive, but they last FOREVER. My dad has had a Stanley lunch box and thermos for decades. I've had a Stanley thermos for YEARS. When the cups came out, I ignored them at first because I had a water bottle. But I never used my water bottle because it wasn't easy to carry. I decided I'd like to try a cup with a handle. I spent WEEKS holding different handled cups every time i went to Fred Meyer and considering if I'd actually use it. I finally decided i would, but when it came time to buy, i DIDN'T purchase any of the cheaper handled cups because they weren't constructed as well as the Stanley's. I think it's important to remember that sometimes it's okay to spend more money if it means you're buying a better product. All that being said, I have ONE Stanley cup. It's great, but 1 is all I need, there's no need to have more than 1. And if your current bottle or Mason jar or whatever is working for you, use that and don't buy anything.

    1. I own it but started disliking it for same reasons. It’s not good for long hair but works better if your hair is collarbone/shoulder length or shorter.
    2. I bought a Stanley cup and love it. I’m always in my car and driving for work so it’s been super beneficial to have a 40oz thermo instead of plastic bottles
    3. I don’t care about making inside of car “cool”
    4. Otterbox is definitely over priced. So many cheaper options that’s just as strong, agreed
    5. I used to hate crocs. But I tried them during the pandemic and yep very comfortable. I own 5 pairs now 😬
    6. Lip masks are very overhyped. Aquaphor
    7. Agreed. Not compatible with most cases. Taking it on and off so annoying
    8. Parents own that ice maker and they never use it! Just sits on counter with no ice smh
    9. Lmao reminds me of Snapchat ghost 😂 but in 90s cartoons it reminds me of when they would transition into a dream and that’s what happened to the mirrors those squiggly lines
    10. Saw a woman with a bbl and it was so obvious and just so unnatural because she was petite and slim. She turned to the side and her booty was enormous. It was seriously ridiculous

I also wouldn't mind some teeth whitening but not over the top something more natural. To each their own right 😅 and don't get me wrong I do love being natural though.

That’s why I think you should be at least 30 to get plastic surgery. Because now the look I want is not the same from when I was 20. Great video Kyra 🤍🤍🤍

    I have one Stanley. I got it for Mother's Day... lol However I did donate the rest of my tumblers to family and friends and took the rest to Value Village. I had like 20 tumblers! 🫣😬 lol
