Flavoured tea's is a misnomer, you mean herbal teas?

I drink about a litre of peppermint tea during the day as it beats plain water & settles the stomach.  In the evening it's camomile w/ or w/out honey to fascilitate restful sleep.

Black tea is full of caffeine, not good.  It makes your teeth brown, not good.  I suspect you are an uncultured chav.

Whilst I do like Redbush/Rooibos, and fruit tea's, I can't stand Peppermint poo, or Camomile crap. Just not nice. I would rather drink hot water (which is actually surprisingly nice, and doesn't taste the same as water straight from the tap).

what about the trend for remote flash used in bouldering photography, used like a WWII searchlight to give 'dramatic' and 'artistic' effects that look 'so original'?

Must admit I've not eaten either, so will take your word for it.

I think I'm swimming against the tide here, but I agree with Nik. I hate those fecking plastic sphincters they've put on squeezy sauce bottles. A right front bottom of an idea. Sure they make less mess on the bottle - BUT, according to the SCIENCE (tm)
"Plastic sauce ring-pieces make the delivery of ketchup threshold based, as opposed to the more linear application afforded by previously used open orifices in combination with the maliable (squeezy) bottle. Of course the original glass bottled 'slurp' of ketchup when first tilted was sometimes annoying but became a much loved random facet of sauce application"

Also, I always forget to store them cap side down, so when I come to use it the first blast from the  'red HP starfish' (or Brown depending on your sauce leanings) is always a watery vinegary affair rather than the full bore ketchupiness we all love on our fish finger butties.

Its over to you 101 Meister Houdini...

 :agree: I want some sauce on my food, not to squeeze the bottle, and then a little harder, bit more harder and then to have half the fucking bottle  :furious:

1.  Shake bottle to get rid of watery stuff
2.  Squeeze onto plate

I don't get why you guys can't squeeze a tiny bit out.   :shrug:

Out of interest, any of the haters managed to get over 12k on a PowerBall?   :-\

The banner ad for Cho-yung weight loss tea was actually appropriate for once!

Its the threshold problem previously described, you have to reach a certain amount of pressure for a release of sauce, and it all then comes at once (or maybe I'm just a slow twat who can't then ease off on the squeeze).


Besides which glass is recyclable, plastic squeezy bottles far less so.  8)

I refer the right honourable gentleman to my previous positng about cutting the whole thing out with a sharp knife?? Assuming that, like any self respecting sauce consumer, you are using Heinz.

I use these Heinz squeezable things faultlessly, now, ignoring the fact that I'm better than you, what's the problem?  You squeeze too hard, too soft?

Glad I'm not asking for a handjob - a tickled or crippled dick?  Who knows what could happen?

Now this could be my folly, I don't do Heinz, prefer HP Bar-b-q sauces.  :P

Indeed, what scum they are.  Is there nothing they won't do for money?  Nothing they won't sell? 

W/ luck Price's chest will explode in a 1st class compartment, showering flight attendants w/ mammary fragments.  Someone will attempt CPR but she'll be so well lubed w/ silicone she'll be like a slippery fish and w/ some small luck she'll FUCKING DIE; hopefully someone will photograph her last moments so I can cut them out of paper I will find (in a bin on a train, take it home) and throw darts at while enjoying a cold beer.

Ha! Just realised that I gave you your 200th + for that. Can't think of a more deserving post.

Room 101 is too good for for those two fuckmonkeys, unless room 101 contains several sharp rotating knives, or some very hungry hyaenas. Or any combination of the above.
