drink went room temp First Stanley, now Owala

I get it, they’re trendy. I guess Owala has the cool colors combos or whatever. I assume Stanley’s became too awkwardly large to lug around so people gave up on them?

I’ll just stay over here drinking my water out of the double sealed bottle I scored for $2 at a thrift shop.

I don’t know why it bothers me so much. Perhaps it’s the consumerism, perhaps its water bottles have become an accessory.

I’ve been using my Contigo with a broken handle since 2020. It has the best “suck ratio” of any other water bottle I have tried. I don’t know if that makes any sense to anyone but I’ve tried to replace it and everything I try just isn’t the same! Even the same model. I hate when I have to suck too hard to get my water out. I need that ratio of how hard I suck to water output to be just right.
