The meaning of life

A Reuter’s report of yesterday:

Feel like a cup of tea, but don’t have the time to brew one up? Pop a “tea pill” instead.

Why would I do that? Isn’t the whole point about tea that you actually take the time to make it then blow and sip it slowly, sit back and relax for ten minutes?

The inventors say the pill “peps you up just like a traditional cuppa.”

Hey, if you want to get pepped and can’t wait for the kettle to boil, try crystal meth.

Me, I’m stickin’ with tea, old school.
