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.

As this is a perfectly rational and reasonable question, I predict it will get completely ignored.

I believe ...
...I can fly I can tell the difference.

I even believe that I can tell whether a cuppa has been made in a mug by the above preferred method or in a teapot using what I consider to be the actual correct way to make tea.

There are entirely rational reasons why they need not taste the same - tea is complex stuff after all. However I haven't ever actually tried a blind tasting so who knows?

when I mentioned this before in a previous QOTW
someone replied that a tea "expert" said that milk in the cup first was the correct way of doing it...

I guess it's down to personal preference, but milk first just seems so wrong

Milky
Milk first was either to stop fine bone china cracking from the heat, or to stop the unpasteurised cow juice curdling. Maybe.

Tea is the solution to everything.
