I work from home and drink from mugs and I don't tiktok, so this whole trendy cup thing is really confusing me.

Do they uncurse bad water or something?

Basically Commodity Fetishism. There's nothing inherently mystical about a Stanley Cup, but thanks to artificial scarcity and hype culture it's now in demand.

They are fantastic, as well as adding a buck of colors and a well timed ad campaign.

Gen z/alpha is learning what x and millennials have known for a while. Stanley makes good shit, and now it's colorful lol
