Fun Stuff > CHATTER
I want to talk about coffee.
scarred:
Dude tea is my shit. My dad made fun of me for years for drinking it and then I finally got him some of the more caffeinated stuff and he gave up coffee altogether. Honestly there really is nothing better than a steaming hot mug of tea and maybe like half a tablespoon of honey.
jimbunny:
If you've got cheap bagged green tea, there's nothing better than that and a little honey, lemon juice, and bourbon for a great cozy evening drink. Or maybe just a splash of brandy, which gives it a nice floral taste. Just don't brew the tea for more than a minute.
sean:

UGH.
I remember reading somewhere that supposedly you can define someone's social class in the UK based on details of how they take tea, down to like the colour and such. I'm not sure how much sense there is in that because I am like a middle class artfag but I drink builders tea.
