    I am from a country formerly colonised by the British, one famous for tea. I have found that the best way to annoy British people is to casually drop a teabag in a mug of cold water and stick it in the microwave. I don't even like tea. I do it just for the trolling entertainment.

      @fesshole that’s an excellent way of having a cup of scalding water explode in your hand when you take it out of the microwave.

        @satsuma @fesshole absolutely won't, I'm afraid. Superheated water will only occur when it's absolutely pure and there's no point of nucleation, such as dust or - I don't know - the tens of thousands of sharp edges of leaves and wood / plastic fibres in the teabag ...

          @fesshole I think you'll find the British have more important things to care about right now. Such as the communist atrocity being inflicted by the present government.

            @humeanbeing I've been looking very carefully for any “communist atrocity” since Labour's general election win and I haven't seen one yet. What did I miss?

                  @BonehouseWasps @satsuma @fesshole I expect it helps. I know instant coffee powder causes a fine foam to appear when microwaved in water. (We have many ways to make coffee in this house, but when my wife has leftover coffee in the flask from the day before, we will pour it into cups, add a dash of instant coffee powder, microwave then top up with boiling water. We're not coffee snobs, and this is a good way to avoid wasting the leftovers.)

                      Brit: yes.
                      Tea Drinker: no.
                      Number of f1cks given over this: zero.

                      If it amuses you: do it.
                      Seems like a waste of resources, but so are many forms of entertainment and we all need that at the moment.

                      Try again.

                        @fesshole@mastodon.social lmao

                        frankly a lot of british tea culture seems very superficial and pretentious

                        people need to stop being snobs about heating up water for tea in the microwave, it's a perfectly fine way to get a single cup of tea

                        heating a mug of water in my microwave for 90 seconds brings it up to 180F/82C, a good temperature for most teas

                              @fesshole @phl @dianshuo in the South they have a drink that is sugar with trace amounts of tea in, but I doubt somehow that was the reference
