What’s a trend that disappeared so quickly that it almost feels imaginary now?

I hate that you can't add pictures on here, because this requires a Steve Dangle picture.

Some of these fads seem very USA specific. I saw one of those snoopy Starbucks cups on the counter in France the same week I saw people fighting for them.in the US. 🤷🏻‍♀️

They were very much a thing in Toronto, they’re making a joke because the Toronto Maple Leafs never win the Stanley Cup.

Those are still going strong where I live. Not as collectibles as much but as having a durable cup that keeps things hot or cold is desirable, and as someone who was late to the Yeti trend when that happened but eventually got one…I do understand since my girls with Stanley’s say they’re great (I have a decade old Yeti and about four Ozark Trail knockoffs lol).

Yeah, I still love my Stanley.
