I guess you hate me then. I need to drink tea in the morning with breakfast to help move the gas in my stomach or else I will feel uncomfortable all morning.

Of course, when I used to eat them regularly I would. I didn't have time to pop them into a toaster. Didn't even own a toaster at the time but even if I did. I prefer them the way they are out of the box.

Hate you? Of course not, I'm new here and don't want to make enemies just yet. Would drinking fruit juice not perform the same function?

What gets me about hot drinks is that some people base their daily routine around them. Wake up, have a cup, get to work, have a cup, lunchtime, have a cup, afternoon, have a cup, back from work, have a cup and so it goes day after day. There's also the time it takes to make, waiting for the kettle to boil, waiting for the tea bag to 'infuse', waiting for it to cool down, waiting for the person to finish their hot drink before getting to leave the house. Not forgetting the rank smell of coffee and the mess that is made by discarded tea bags on kitchen surfaces and mug rings by people who don't use coasters.

Juice does not cause these issues. Hot drinks should be banned!

Cold fruit juice wouldn't perform the same function. Also green tea is good for you. I make my tea while cooking breakfast so it doesn't take any extra time. By the time I am done making breakfast my tea is ready to drink. Coffee does smell rank I agree with you there but everything else is a non-issue to me anyways. I now see why you hate hot beverages so much though.

I have heard that green tea is good for the body, antioxidants or something.

Anyway, I apologise for the rant, I'm off to bed now ;)

No need to apologize. Good night. Sleep well.

Or a hearse. Or the bed of a midsize SUV. Only one of which I could recall the outcome...

It's a good song. Not their best, and not the best psychedelic song by far, but I love it.

That's absolutely horrid; I hope they at least cleaned up after themselves.

I find it odd that you've quoted a bunch of my posts. Why me?

Both have worked retail...so I suspect they did. She's not exactly shy...she's a CPA, and put herself through school as a stripper.

You reminded me of what Dana & Jerry did...and you got THAT DAMNED SONG stuck in my head!

I once hid a child's prosthetic arm in a sand pit. I've also kicked a frozen cat.

The real world creeps the living hell out of me. It's insane. I trip out. It's not a safe little place anymore.

Not quite the same, but I actually really dig men dressed like women who, if I didn't know they were men, I'd never guess were men. If they have masculine qualities the effect is ruined and they just look like drag queens.
