It's not my perception of correctness.  It's reality, afforded by the perceptive capability we all have.

A is A.  Tea is tea.  Tea is not Tea and something else.

You're funny.

Liberty Lover's recipe is exactly correct I woud like to marry her grandmother.  Some might notice it contains exactly half the sugar of kool-aid which already contains 25% less than most carbonated beverages.  A math type might figure out how much less sugar is in strong sweet tea then coca-cola and then realize how ridiculous some of their comments are.

Also, sweet is an adjective tea is a noun.

Wouldn't I be a fool to expect to be taken seriously when I tell you a car is a car not a car and something else when you tell me you like blue cars.

Whatever the message is, I'm not watching a half-hour video to try to divine it.

I didn't realize it was so long. It starts off with a story from when she went to Japan and asked for her tea with sugar. They said they don't have any, so she then asked for coffee...which she got with sugar packets on the side. In Japan it is the "duty" of the business owner to ensure the customer makes the "right" decision, which means tea gets no sugar.

Had a pal growing up who's Mom added tons of sugar to tea which they drank all the time. He said their well water contained too much sulfur, made the water smell bad & taste worse, so the sugar was an attempt to make it drinkable.

They was some po', but good, folks.

It's objective reality, not humor.

That's completely unrelated.  Paint is part of what comes on a car.  Tea is a food product, and its flavor is its essence.  Look at a menu in a restaurant, and you'll see that all the food items tell how they're prepared.  If tea is on the menu, and it says "tea" but doesn't say how it's been altered, it's going to go back back if it comes with corn syrup or other shit in it.

The fact that you think that is what's funny.  But by all means, feel free to disregard conventions and insist "THAT'S NOT TEA, DAMMIT" until your face turns blue.  I'm sure it will be very effective.

Start a tip at 20%. Lower or raise it depending on quality of service. No need for a card, servers understand very well the meaning of the amount of a tip.

Real men don't drink tea or eat keesh. They drink beer and eat bratwurst. That is Man Law. I don't make the rules, I just follow 'em.

It isn't just tea, and it never will be.  It's some other crap that has tea in it.  It has nothing to do with anger.  It has to do with the fact that if someone ever tries to sell it to me as "tea," it will be returned.  It's unfathomable that anyone would be so stupid as to pretend someone should expect it that way.
