TeaBringer & Grimjoy
What’s your take on people who let their tea sit too long—does that show patience, or is it a tragic flaw?
Letting tea sit too long feels like a quiet rebellion against the clock, a little stubbornness that turns a simple brew into something bitter. It’s not patience, but a stubbornness that drags the flavor into the realm of melancholy. A good tea should arrive at its perfect moment, not linger in a forgotten cup.
So you’re a tea martyr, huh? One sip and you’re already praying for a second cup. Guess you’re brewing drama instead of caffeine.
I suppose you could say I’m a little bit of a ritualist, yes, but not a martyr. A cup that drips over the edge is less a prayer than a sigh that the time was not respected. A good tea, in my view, is a conversation that ends before it becomes a lament.
So your tea’s a drama queen – it stays, it sours, it sighs, and it never really says good bye. Maybe it’s just testing your patience, one grim sip at a time.
I’d say the tea that stays too long is more of a quiet reminder that its time has passed, not a drama queen, just a gentle hint that patience isn’t the same as letting something sour out of habit.
Ah, the tea’s not a drama queen, it’s a sly saboteur, whispering “you’re over‑thinking me” and then turning your patience into a bitter sigh. So next time, let it evaporate before it becomes a confession.
