If you drink enough coffee, your eyes will vibrate and you won’t have to move the cup

Can we limit the length of the title field when people are posting so the entire title will be visible once it's posted?

STOP USING STYROFOAM CUPS

The ripple patterns are due to the resonance of the styrofoam itself and that we cannot apply force uniformly, not the smooth surface

I believe resonance is the technical term and it's soooooo satisfying. +1

Resonance is another phenomenom but still very cool too!

The vibration frequency from the friction interaction of dragging the cup causes Excitation of one of the mode shapes of the cup-liquid /1

System causes interplay of the surface of the liquid and cup periphery to generate standing waves at the liquid-air phase boundary.

Or, it could be magnets...

Get real, no one knows how those work

Not resonance. Standing waves.
