you people should learn to drink tea, the proper british way

Fuck that. I don’t drink tea or coffee. I’ve never been a hot drinks person.

I used to rely heavily on Relentess to get me through the school day. I like to do as little work as possible at home so I get to school for 7am which means I need to be up at 5:45. But I don’t like to go to bed any earlier than
11pm/midnight so I used to drink a can of Relentless most mornings so I could actually teach without looking like a zombie!

I have stopped that now though as it made me feel shitty by late afternoon. I don’t really need more than 5-6 hours of sleep to function. I’ve realised that any more than 7 hours and I feel more tired. Sleeping is unproductive anyway so it suits me this way.

But don't you guys put fuckin' milk in your tea or something?

hells yeah bro, a lot of people have sugar too. this is specifically with black tea though, not that hipster flavored shit!

I drink a lot of tea. I have a cabinet full of 15 different kinds or something. Helped me kick my soda habit.

You’re more British than I am!

The fuck? I've always been polite toward you, I don't know what possible cause you would have to insult me like this. I've reported your post to Deron and I hope he fucking bans you, I come to this forum to relax and I shouldn't have to put up with this sort of hateful slander from someone I thought of as a friend.

I've tried it a few times and it was pretty good but just didn't seem like tea anymore.

I dont touch coffee. And i grew up in a household where nothing but that nasty harsh/heavy black Armenian/Greek coffee was served on an hourly basis lol.

You know what's good? Hot water with a cinnamon stick.

I used to drink an absolute fuckton of Dr. Pepper but I've cut down on that quite a bit. Replaced it with Hawaiian Punch which is like half the calories or something. Tea just doesn't satisfy for me.

yeah that's fair. i think non-brits who've never tried it and think they hate tea should try it our way though, i agree it's pretty different but it manages to be both soothing and enlivening at once i find. it's caffeinated but the release is much slower, so you don't get the same shitty crash you get an hour or two after coffee. i find i'm way more productive sometimes when i have one. good for headaches too.

i remember when i went to cyprus they served these coffees after dinner in tiny mugs. they were ultra strong and thick but also ultra sweet, and i actually liked them a lot, but they made me sleep like shit and have a nasty aftertaste in my mouth.

i think pop tarts used to be banned here for being dangerously hot or something

They arent hot unless you heat them...dangerously gross though

 

[dwellerINTHEdark]

Drink whatever you want, just stay away from smoothies. I went to one of those hipster smoothie bars yesterday and the thing was like $8.50 go fuck yourselves.

CUPPA TEA GUVNA?

you people should learn to drink tea, the proper british way

35 cups a day?

 

[no country for old wainds]

we don't say cuppa or guvna in this part of the country, we mostly call it a brew. put a brew on m8, come round for a brew the kettle's on m8, etc

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

... spoken like a true crumpet-stuffer.

 

[Sirjack]

l have a coffee first thing, then, about 1:00 pm i'll have a cup of PG Tips or Earl Grey or whatever the fuck, then at 6:00ish l go to the pub and have 3 or 4 pints of either dirty water, carbonated sugar or shots and stout, then l eat and have a bottle of red.

 

[Sirjack]

If they sent this as a message it definitely wouldn’t have the apostrophe correct like that! British people are generally fucking terrible at using apostrophes correctly. It’s mindboggling the amount of people that use them try to pluralise a word!
