Gotta love the slick marketing campaign advertisements in your local coffeebucks. One near my place of work has this:

You’re so cool, hip and trendy for shopping in Cafe Casa. You’re not a corporate slave! You’re not a wage monkey! You’re an individual. You have feelings! If you get pricked, you bleed! You’re not satisfied with crap service, shoddy coffee or monotonous daily humdrum. You demand, nay, you DESERVE more! We applaud you for taking the first step on the road of individualism! We admire your fortitude on this brave new path! Like Henry Morton Stanley who forged a path through the dark continent in search of Dr Livingstone, so do you brave the concrete jungle in your quest for a better, more satisfying cup of coffee. You are different than those myriad specimens of base humanity that clog up the footpath! You are not one of them! You are not a sheep!!You are a leader! You know what you want and by goshdarn hell and sunny jesus you have the right to claim what is yours! Thanks to your individuality, you have ended up here! The apotheosis of all coffee shops. We reflect your uniqueness. We are a haven! An oasis! We are here to serve you!! You unique, eccentric, exclusive, irreplaceable, inimitable paragon of free will and liberty. We salute you!!

Now get in line like everyone else.

Corporate ****es.

(Ok, I may have changed some of the words ever so slightly, but the above passage reflects the spirit of their message.)

Ha! That's twice today i've heard that! I humbly accept your lavishing of praise, i'll not let it go to my head.

"We applaud you for taking the first step on the road of individualism!"

HAHAHA!!! That's almost as good as 'My therapist says...'

 

[Rambo, John J]

Anyway, tea. Has no-one else tried Nambarrie? Northern Ireland's finest? We didn't just invent the best crisps you know.

 

[Halcohol]

I honestly don't drink tea, I don't know why. If I ever do, though I'll put Nambarrie at the top of the list.

And what the hell is a crisp?

EDIT: Potato chip, right? Never mind.

 

[Lantern Venom]

I like my tea with raw sugar and honey

Southern Style! Oh yeah.

I also like green tea: loaded with antioxidants for a natural boost of energy.

 

[Lantern Venom]

warm drinks are for tramps and people who live in caravans...

Um.......

 

[blind_fury]

all I drink is water and green tea.

 

[AndThePickles]

I loooove tea, but I don't put lemon in it unless it's iced.

 

[Kelemchrist]

No, tea is the epitome of mom's sucking teet. Unfortunately, my family loves tea so much they can pronounce it backwards. In fact, I just wanna puke at the taste of it.

 

[_BB_]

Tea with lemon?!?

Be normal and drink it with milk with a couple of biscuits on the side to dunk in

 

[Ronny Shade]

If so could you tell me how much Lemon (if you put it in your tea) you use per cup. I have been trying to get a good balance of tea & lemon. I just can't get it! So please bring upon me your wisdom. I would greatly appreciate it.

If you're worried about things like balancing the tea and lemon, you shouldn't have a name like "Maximum Carnage." Honestly.

 

[Cyclops]

I'm a chai tea addict. Yum.

I have no idea at all what this is supposed to mean.

 

[November Rain]

Um.......

[Dorian Gray]

Lipton

 

[Holly Goodhead]

I only drink it if someone makes it for me.

Chamomile is good stuff and doesn't need much or any sweetening. It's been studied and shown to be effective for promoting relaxation, inducing calmness, and is an anti-inflamatory. I usually use two tea bags, then put them in the freezer/fridge when I'm done; later that night, I'll put them on my eyes to reduce the appearance of undereye circles. A LOT of people hail it as a cure-all and it has been used medicinally worldwide for, like, ever.

Peppermint tea is also nice, especially in the colder months. I use spoonful of lemon and an overflowing spoonful of honey in a regular largish-sized coffee mug.

It's alright but agreed with the crisps... Tayto Cheese and Onion are the best crisps available anywhere

 

[Sensi]

I drink all types of tea but the iced teas are usually the green teas with ginseng, blueberry or cranberry. I don't sweetened my teas and if I add lemon I just squeeze a half of a small lemon into it.

 

[sassycat]

I like to cut fresh Lemonbaum leaves from my garden and make tea, with honey of course

 

[AndThePickles]

My boyfriend introduced me to plain Lipton tea with evaporated milk and sugar. Mmmm. It's now one of my favorites.

 

[Boom]

Lipton Green Tea.
