Tea, however, well I will definitely fight you if you make that wrong!

I have a box of Yorkshire Tea hidden in my desk at work, because I refuse to put it in the lunch room and let others at it. They can have Tetley Orange Pekoe, while I have the good stuff.

Sidebar: It's hard AF and expensive to buy GOOD British Tea in Canada sadly.

A local Walmart has a 'UK Foods' section loaded with what various people who would know the difference tell me is GOOD British tea.

Yorkshire Tea is entirely superior - QT, you've gone up even further in my estimation!

(Joking aside, it's a very strong tea largely aimed at hard water - so I can accept it's a bit much for some!)

I did manage to persuade some Americans once that Yorkshire tea was grown in Yorkshire and my family owned vast tea fields...

Did you know that if Lady Ga Ga and the Goo Goo Dolls went on tour together, it would be called the Goo Goo Ga Ga Tour?

Imagine the signs. The Sounds. The Television Ads!

I LOVE me some strong tea. If I have a weaker tea brand I will let it endlessly steep to get it as strong as I can. So Yorkshire tea is my jam.

Someone told it to me at work and I passed it on.

Thanks for the source.

No worries. Funny stuff.

Yoga with Adriene on YouTube. It is the perfect antidote to a home based desk job. Do you think she needs a new best friend? She could join my crew with Jonathan van Ness and Tan France. We would have THE BEST time.

Never thought I'd be happy for a Pommy win in the Rugby Union ... but when it's over the Ull Blecks in a WC semi - that's acceptable.

Suck shut, bro.

"It could have been even better for Jones and Co too — after England had two tries controversially disallowed."

Yeah, nice to see it didn't go to the "Ull Blicks are a protected species" script the refs usually work from this time. I guess without Ruchie McCaw being there to serenade the ref for 80% of the match (the other 20% spent being offside at the ruck) they just couldn't talk the ref around enough to make a difference to the final result.

Haha awkward.

My wife made the first batch of chili of the fall season. She thinks its disgusting that I eat mine with a peanut butter sandwich and dip it in/use to mop up the chili.

Is this just a local thing or do others around the world do this?

Beans yes, rice no.


It’s such a common thing here, it surprises me no one else eats it. It’s literally a combo we get starting in grade school.
