absolutely not. don’t even know if i like it or not, just don’t want to end up in the cult of tea drinking because it’s annoying as fuck to be around

Can’t imagine anyone is culty about it though, it’s a lot more casual than coffee

I feel like bad coffee is more about what you start with, a lot of bad tea is due to individual failings

That is definitely true but honestly bad coffee is still fine you just add more sugar and milk

I can’t imagine that, never seen anybody order tea or make fancy tea in my entire life, just something you make at home to pass the time

Answer me babe, “yes I would
I’ll put you above me”

oh that’s not really what i mean by cultist. i mean people who bang on and on and on about how much they love tea, every fucking day. how they have 9 cups a day, how can you not drink tea???, tea is life, ordering tea at the pub, buying a special kettle with bluetooth so they can set it from their bed when they wake up in the morning… like fucking hell lads it’s a hot drink, calm the fuck down. and it’s such a signifier of Britishness.

at least coffee serves a purpose (proper caffeine hit)

whatever I had to hand,at the moment it’s a lemon blossom and mint number

Yeah i understand, never really met those people though outside of the odd friendly joke about tea being great, it’s like a conversation filler like people moaning about the weather in that aspect.

I think tea has a kind of relaxing and calming quality that coffee can’t replicate though so I see them as two different drinks for different needs.

Can mess with your anxiety levels if you make yourself a coffee when you really should have had a tea.

if it was standard breakfast tea then yeah I’d add a small drop of milk, think that’s the default for that kind of tea. no sugar though

Yorkshire tea are unaware of what water looks like.

I used to work in a cafe that specialised in teas. Some people would ask if we could buy in PG Tips next time (not even Yorkshire).
