This is a question Driven to Madness

Captain Placid asks: What annoying things do significant others, workmates and other people in general do that drive you up the wall? Do you want to kill your other half over their obsessive fridge magnet collection? Driven to distraction over your manager's continued use of Comic Sans (The Font of Champions)? Tell us.

Tea cannot be made correctly without a teapot!
The procedure is:

Warm teapot
Add tea/teabag(s) to teapot
Add truly boiling water to teapot
Add milk to cup(s)
Allow tea to brew in teapot
Stir teapot once
Pour tea into cup(s)
Profit Enjoy


I will concede that if you don't have a teapot then your method is the next best attempt but you can taste the difference. I believe that it is the scolding effect of milk added to very hot water that does it.

I heartily agree...
... but it is the one concession that I am usually forced to make in the name of convenience. You will notice that I put "tea" as the first option.

I missed that...
... in my urge to scorn. I do apologise!
