Earl Grey Is For Homosexuals
Saturday 22 April 2006
I just got so BURNED! by my British work-friend who informed that “Earl Grey tea is for homosexuals.”
To appreciate that line, you must imagine it as read by Hugh Grant. He informed me that PG Tips – a salon tea – is proper tea and that Twinings is not real tea because it is made for the export market. All the while, he was bloviating with authority because he has a British accent.
Why is Earl Grey for homosexuals? Well, it’s so perfumey.
But Darjeeling is even more perfumey. Nevertheless, Darjeeling is a golden tea. It’s all a matter of preference. Next week, I will learn how to make a proper cup of tea. God save the Queen.
