I am watching all the Link Click endorsed CMs, Part 2 : Link Click X 小茗同学 Xiao Ming Tong Xue (bottled tea beverage) This CM is way shorter than the first one, but considering they have the LC characters printed on their bottles during this promo I'm guessing a chunk of the budget went there (the other brand is just a full CM, no fancy alternative packaging afaik).

Look I don’t care enough about tea to have a right to be pretentious about it but you cannot

sell me tea that is only listed as “black” with absolutely no elaboration on which variety or blend you’re using,

brew it for me and hand it to me without the tea bag so I don’t even get to decide how strong I want it, and

charge me five dollars for your smallest available cup

every single time I read a fic written by brits people make their tea straight into a mug and I need to know if I'm the only person in britain using a teapot

Do I hold grudges? Yes. Do I ever let them go? Absolutely not.

Nothing highlights this better than this entirely true but ultimately lighthearted anecdote:

There is a comedian name Hal Sparks. You may have heard of him. He also played one of the main characters in Queer As Folk.

SEVERAL years ago--like, maybe a decade or more--I was listening to a comedy station on Pandora when one of his skits came up. It is one where he talks about how much he hates the Southern phrase “unsweet tea.” 

His reasoning was because to say “unsweet” was to say that you were putting sugar in something and then taking it back out again and it makes no sense. There was more yelling and curse words involved, but this was the gist.

I listened to that skit a total of ONE time in my very early twenties and absolutely fucking hated it. I mean, just irrationally annoyed by it--both as a Southerner and as someone who knows how to English.  

I have never been able to let it go. I don’t know why, but sometimes I will just remember that the skit exists and I will become unhinged again. 

I haven’t thought about it in a while, but last week, I definitely woke from a dead sleep one morning just fucking ranting about it.

Because it��s fucking incorrect. His logic is not logic. His grasp of the English language is a fucking open hand as far as I’m concerned.

It only works!!! It only works if we take the prefix “un” solely as it functions in a word like “undo.” If “un” meant a reversal, then FINE.

But that’s not the only way that “un” functions as a prefix in the English language!!! We have words like uncouth! Unlikeable! Unkempt!

None of these words mean a reversal! They describe a LACK. A LACK of couth. A LACK of likeability. A LACK of being kempt. 

WHAT IS UNSWEET TEA??? IT’S A LACK OF FUCKING SUGAR.

There is a LAUNDRY LIST of things to complain and criticize when it comes to the American South, and INSTEAD OF CHOOSING ANY OF THOSE THINGS TO POKE FUN AT, you chose this!!!!!!

I am so fucking normal about this topic, but Hal Sparks better sleep with one eye open. He has lived rent-free in my head for too long.

my (maternal) grandma used to do this thing where every time i visited her house she would give me a brown paper bag to take with me when i left. it usually contained a banana, a tiny bottle of sprite, a packet of m&ms, some lays potato chips in a ziplock bag, and usually one or two other items

iirc i didn't eat most of the items in the bag because they weren't things i liked, so i usually ended up giving them to my parents. but it was such a sweet thing for her to do
