Really enjoyed this article and how it was put together. As someone who has an old thermos (I do love that the lid doubles as a cup), but little familiarity with Instagram, and even less familiarity with this "influencer" business, this was an informative and eye-opening read. (To be honest, it was worth reading just for that latte description.)

I could not believe that whole Stanley cup thing. It seemed to come out of nowhere and now people are asking $10,000 for one cup on Ebay. Uh-huh. It's like Carhartt and even Converse suddenly being "discovered" by a generation that hates boomers but seems to love the stuff they use. Ah....what a time we live in

OKaaaaayyyy... A huge mystery solved for me. Sorry I was oblivious - till now. I wondered what the thing was with the ugly water bottles lol. Now I know. A lesson in popular aesthetics for me!

Thanks Neil. Had to chuckle while also shaking my head at how unapologetically true it all is.
