Parrhesia Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 for totally ridiculous reasons The only legit part of it is how people treat it as some sort of elixir of life that is essential and the reason why the petty colonials will never match our power/why most other Americans will never match my sophistication (delete as appropriate for nationality) and idk it's overhyped But I have no idea why it actually makes me angry lol OKAY ACTUALLY I do but it sort of falls into 'theatre shit' and also 'intense bitterness' so it's more a private thing I guess, if you actually know me properly and care then ask in private tea's shit is what i'm saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parrhesia Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 See it's the fucking hero worship over dirty water that gets me If you like it, drink it, it's not something to preach about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euklyd Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 (edited) This topic would not, by chance, have been prompted by this, would it? EDIT: right I actually had something to say. Tea is overhyped; tbh I can sympathize with the sentiment here. Edited February 19, 2014 by Euklyd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tryhard Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 (edited) but I drink it along with crumpets and that makes me British. (to be honest british tea is probably lower quality than other types, it's ok) I really don't like coffee so meh.

Makaze Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I can't drink tea unless it's chai tea or something I haven't tried before. Not my thing. Give me coffee any day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightmare Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I like a good tea. I like a good coffee. Can't we just be friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 This topic would not, by chance, have been prompted by this, would it? yes but it's a sentiment i've held for a long time, since 2012 really. We were talking British tea? I was talking Asian tea. Yes, I, an Australian, was speaking of British tea, as in the tea predominantly found in Australia. I apologise if this shocks you.

Parrhesia Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 I like a good tea. I like a good coffee. Can't we just be friends. of course we can be friends I have nothing against people who like tea. My grudge is against the people who claim it is literally unassailable and the ideal, Platonic form of liquid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Refa Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 (edited) Sure thing, bro! EDIT Response to Nightmare. One of these days, F5, one of these days.... Edited February 19, 2014 by Refa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruity Insanity Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 My mistake. Should I just say 'chai'? No, Chai Tea is correct, as it *is* a type of tea. But it's just like saying "tea tea." In English, it's fine. In Russian, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, or other languages it would be more weird, though, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 of course we can be friends Sweet. The rest of your post was irrelevant because I already knew all of that, so I cut it out. I hope you don't mind bubba, and even if you do, well, I don't give a SHIT. Sure thing, bro! EDIT Response to Nightmare. One of these days, F5, one of these days.... Cowabunga, man.

Baldrick Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 is there anything that doesn't make you angry? I mean, tea, waifus, like 90% of all things fall into those categories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darros Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 silly Baldrick, if 90% of things make Furet angry, there's a distinct 10% of things that do not make him angry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldrick Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 yes but the last 10% is bad writing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darros Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 so it's basically 100% of things separated into two sections Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peener weener Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 i hate it when the what.cd tracker is down so that's 120% of all the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldrick Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 three. tea/waifus/bad writing. four if you count the phrase "good sir" but not really since that's a subset of tea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted February 20, 2014 Author Share Posted February 20, 2014 is there anything that doesn't make you angry? i concentrate my anger into a few small and deserving categories so that I can go through life ignoring those things and living merrily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
