Family Feuds
Pooster tells us that a relative was once sent to the shops to buy an onion, while the rest of the family went on a daytrip while he was gone. Meanwhile, whole sections of our extended kin still haven't got over a wedding brawl fifteen years ago – tell us about families at war.

I got put off tea because of the ridiculous, almost religious attitude that goes with it
I don't mind tea, sometimes it's nice to have a cup, but to practically worship the stuff is absurd.
I don't drink coffee either, mainly because it makes me feel sick.
I've found that almost eliminating caffeine from my day has made me feel much more awake almost all of the time, as opposed to the peaks and troughs I had when I drank tea much more often.

Yup that's true
I stopped drinking caffeine by accident a few years ago, by accidentally buying decaff, and didn't notice any difference.
These days, I drink decaff at home and the odd tea/coffee at work. About 45 minutes after a caffeinated drink I start pegging for another and get all antsy! If I ignore the feeling it eventually goes away.
I'm not an addict - I can take it or leave it. Honest.

Religious attitude
Yes! Milk-before-tea versus tea-before-milk is the Protestants versus Catholics of the beverage world.
