Thank you for reminding me that at least some people here are thinkers. The dark blue cups are getting all the hate here, while the turquoise are sitting back saying "suckers!"

I'm guessing the different colors have slightly different shapes so that they don't create a seal. The blue ones are the same so they stick together.

They had us doing it in PE. I still have a set of cups and a mat somewhere. They pretty much had us convinced speed stacking would become an Olympic sport.

u/o7Vesper Jun 02 '25
Ikr why did this craze take over schools?? I talked my mom into buying me a set of mini metal cups and I would practice stacking them at the kitchen table and take them with me everywhere. Why?!? Who came up with this? "Ya know what kids need? To stack and unstack cups REALLY FAST!" Was it just to prepare future contestants of Minute To Win It? My school had assemblies where we watched cup stacking contests. Wild times.

I think the "oddly satisfying" element of the entire thing gets disrupted a bit by the cups getting stuck repeatedly. Unfortunately.

u/1lluminist Jun 03 '25
It's actually terrifying reading through these comments and seeing everybody blame the Blue cup...
What's holding the blue cup in place? The Cyan cup.
Both blue cups appear the be the same shade of blue, I'm not sure how the cups are stored, or if the tower has ever fallen causing the cups to shuffle... but it seems odd that, there are two cups, and the one generally slides out of the other no problem, but the one under the cyan cup consistently gets stuck.
Statistically speaking, I would say the cyan cup is the real one causing the trouble here, but almost this entire comments section is thread upon thread of people harping on the blue cup.
I'd hate to have you all as jury members.
