Has TC become too tame? Have we gone from one extreme to the other? It seems that we have adjusted the rules to accomodate some members who believed the site was getting too mean spirited....but now what? The ones who have complained don't come, the ones who caused all the controversy have left....What's the deal? Can the site survive "TC Lite"?

Hahahahah, the most insulting joke of the week! If you claim that coffee is a better drink, you will have to prove it by taking my sword fight challenge! You do not dare to offend my people for whom tea has been teh most sacred drink for hundreds of years. Come on karpusqueen... let's see if you can defend your honor! lol lol lol

blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa green tea is disgusting Alameda and any kind of tea leaves my mouth feeling like the bottom of a budgie's cage . . .yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk . . . . oh I just thought . . .perhaps I wasn't supposed to chew the leaves . . . hmmmm (see Karpus wander off with a puzzled expression)

OK this is pure conjecture, but it will have to do until I get hard facts.

Tea drinkers have bad habits

And if non of that convinces you that coffee is more important than tea, think of this,

If it wasn't for coffee there wouldn't be so many people buying tea for its calming effects

Firstly I am highly offended that you keep posting youtube links when we can't look at them

Secndly that you keep using smiley's that I can't get on my TC post page !!!!

Thirdly that anyone would dare to criticize COFFEE - which is by far the superior drink.

COFFEE COFFEE COFFEE COFFEE - Mantra for the day !!!!

Green tea, from the Taiwanese mountains is by far the best drink (or else! )

TAIWANESE MOUNTAINS?????? YOu wouldn't get me up a mountain picking green tea leaves, for all the tea in China!!! I guess the higher up the leaves, the greener they are, the YUKKIER they are.

Oh the smell of freshly ground coffee . . . . hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Coffee is by far superior . . . and it keeps you awake when you are trying to pack a suitcase and do 1001 jobs before setting off for the airport at 2:20 am. Better than Red Bull!!!! Istanbul here I come !!!!!!

coffee coffee . . . turkish coffee coffee coffee
