"Just for fun, I tried rereading the entire thread. At page 14 I found myself reciting the Encyclopedia Britannica (volumes E though I) from memory. By page 17 I was channelling Elvis and a dead bra salesman from the 60's, and at page 23 I woke up in strange home surrounded by very polite, yet slightly sinister looking elves.

That's the best part about this thread, it's a different trip for everyone. "

Can you still get pyramid shaped teabags?

Yes. My Tesco's still sells them.

Really? The hours I've wasted, moulding boring old teabags into pyramid shapes with a craft knife and Superglue...

Though Earl Grey lightly dusted with a hint of superglue can really take you places regular teas cant.

Yes, and substituting water for petrol increases the appeal of the aroma no end.

Isn't there a story about Lee ""Scratch"" Perry drinking petrol for a bet?"

Alistair wrote:

"I had a barbeque the other day, and on the side of the can of lighting fluid, it said that it was 'unlikely to cause harm if swallowed'.

I wonder if you could make tea with it?"

Papercut Fun wrote:

"A good rule of thumb is ""if it boils, toss in a teabag and enjoy.""

Though I don't recommend trying it with lard. The resulting mixture is quite filling and tastes disturbingly like chicken........uh.....so, I've read. Yeah, that's right.

"Hey everyone, this thread turned 1 year old yesterday. Too bad we missed the big anniversary celebration.

Let's all meet at Lux for coctails this weekend. You know their policy: ""If you can find the door, c'mon inside - the fire's always roaring."""

A party to celebrate the fact we've spent a year talking about tea on a board dedicated to a comic about the devil. That sounds fun! :)

HOLY FUGGIN... SWEET JESUS WITH A CRACKPIPE!!!

Teabags is one year old!!?! Man that's just too weird. And to think in that time we've actually avoided the sexual conotation of the word teabag (so far as i can recall anyway).

Wow look where we've all come in that year as well. Mike's getting much more recognition and has more projects in the works. I'm living in another town with a woman that I love who's planning to move to Oregon with me in a few years. Then there's all the rest of you who've had so many changes I can't even think of them right now.

Here's hoping that in June of '03 were still talking the tea.

"To celebrate the Tanniversary (sic), I am drinking a Brazilian drink and watching Brazilian football.

And although there is an awful lot of coffee in Brazil, for once this is not a Caffeinist stance against the Tannites.

The drink is a mix of lime and cachaça
and Brazil and Turkey are entertaining me.

Which I need, having just had to perform a rather gruesome task. Funny how the last 17 years in the NHS have been relatively free of this sort of thing."

Think I'll celebrate with a Long Island Iced Tea!

No, I shouldn't have mentioned it really, but it's not for the boards.

However, I am glad to say that the Tanniversary is within three days of my day of birth.

In five minutes I am 39.
Damn it looks old when you type it like that !"

Not to me, says the 42 year old Stately one..."

Didn't realise I was in such well-weather'd company. I'm 33.

Long Island Iced Tea.... back in my mis-spent youth, I got very drunk on some of those in a club called Zed or Zog or something like that in Manila, and woke up in my hotel bed 8 hours later with absolutely no recollection of how I got there. Manila is not the best place in the world to pull a stunt like that.

What say we all go an act like kids on the Hellblazer board until the headmaster comes in ?"

Papercut Fun wrote:

We now have exactly 100 threads going on the Lucifer boards. I would have posted a new thread announcing that but the very act would have made it threat 101 thus making the post redundant...so I'm using this thread here.

Happy Birthday Adrian. I'm clocking in as spring chicken on this thread at 28 years old (for another month).

Seems to be so. Funny how comic book demographics have shifted in the last decade, eh?

Nope.

Eggmen. We want eggmen.

Funny how age demographics creep up while maturity remains a constant. I guess that explains the success of Star Trek and resurgence in popularity of GIJOE and Transformes....ooooh ooooh, Mike....great idea. Lucifer should be able to transform into a truck whenever trouble comes a callin'..."

Both of you are wrong. I'm the youngest here. By quite a lot, actually.

But what kind of tea would a Lucifer transformer drink? Come on, we have to stick to the topic. Although I'm actually on wine at the moment, but anyway...
