IMU and CH seem to favor it. I think that’s enough information to know it sucks and the majority of us have it right by going with coffee.

Coffee sucks unless its at a restaurant with those flavored creamers. 1 cup of coffee + 4 creamers + 6 sugars = Dessert with free refills.

That sounds awful.

People who use cream and sugar in coffee are weird. Why actively make a great product worse at additional time and expense? Never understood it.

I sometimes put a little cream and sugar into coffee, but usually prefer it black.

And coffee is better than tea.

You don’t limit your terrible thought to just sports and politics. I admire the consistency.

Nothing worse than stopping at 7-11 to get a quick cup of coffee and standing behind someone who has to pour a bunch of flavored creamers and sugar into their "coffee". Drink it black like a real man and get out of my way.

Yeah.. I’m a black coffee guy. I can’t stomach the creamers and flavors and I drink it to stay away from sugar so That took care of that. Drink way to much of it though.

People who "don't like" stuff are fucking children. Good tea, good coffee...it's good. I have no respect for people who have pallettes so unsophisticated that they cannot appreciate quality food or drink.

There are some exceptions, like ketchup is seriously gross, but for the most part a grown man who won't drink something as ubiquitous as tea is clearly compensating for either his closeted homosexuality or micropenis, perhaps both.

For instance, you can say "I dont like Top Ramen" and thats OK. But you wouldn't say "I dont like noodles", because that would be ridiculous.

That opinion is ridiculous, or at least would be if it was serious. The thing about being a full time troll is it’s hard to take you serious when you say some something like tea is ubiquitous to a group of 30-40 year old men.

But yeah you’re either trolling or hilariously wrong here. I guess it’s in the eye of the beholder.

Tea is definitely ubiquitous and has been for literally centuries.

Once again, you either don’t know what ubiquitous means or you have zero understanding of the demographic of the board you’re speaking to. Given your posting history, I find either one possible and/or likely.

There is an aisles full of tea in every grocery store in the western world. I dont think there is a single beverage so universally consumed in the western world. I dont even think Coca Cola challenges it.

"Not liking" tea is the same as "not liking" fish. My advice to you would be grow up and learn how to eat and drink like an adult human.

Smells better than it ends up tasting, which isn't to say at all that it tastes bad, just that it smells exceptionally good.

I love Darjeeling. That's probably my favorite everyday tea. Russian Caravan is amazing but gets to be way too damn much. Down here in Florida the kosher aisle has Swee-Touch-Nee tea, which I guess is a Russian tea but not Russian Caravan, which smells like burning leaves. I guess it was big in New York with people from the Pale. I'll have to try that one.

I can’t hate on people who prefer tea because I’m pro-Sting. I’m a closet Sting fan. Yeah I’m definitely in the closet.
