I remember those idyllic days of my youth, waiting for consumer interest in my 50-cent blowjob stand

I wonder how Lucy would have handled the situation in an alternate-universe Peanuts strip

― Curt1s Stephens, Saturday, 28 April 2007 19:46 (nineteen years ago)

if i was really smart i would've been like Lucy in Peanuts and have my own stand disseminating psychiatric advice with complimentary fellatio as the hook to bring in customers. i'd "blow minds"

sonned in lemonade/sweet tea beef

just goes to show i'm not a native southerner. when my friend sean (who's lived all his life here) came back from a trip to NYC he was stunned at the lack of sweet tea. it's just something that he was so used to.

― latebloomer, Sunday, 29 April 2007 02:19 (nineteen years ago)

i think to be a true southerner you have to be born with trace of amount of caffeine in your blood

― latebloomer, Sunday, 29 April 2007 02:22 (nineteen years ago)

My wife always talked about how confusing it could get in American restaurants, being asked a thousand questions about one wants their meal prepared. For example, in Australia, they don't really bother asking you what kind of freakin' salad dressing you want.

So you can imagine the blank stare she gave our Waffle House waitress the first time she was asked "sweet'r,unsweet?"

― Pleasant Plains, Sunday, 29 April 2007 03:14 (nineteen years ago)

i have a friend from alabama who was totally baffled that there was no sweet tea to be found in montreal. i told him i had never even heard of this sweet tea and he was like "no, you know, sweet tea! you know!" this was abt 2 yrs ago. there is still no sweet tea.

― rrrobyn, Sunday, 29 April 2007 03:15 (nineteen years ago)

If you find me sleepin' in the shade dear
Will you promise to bring me all your sweetness
All my plans are hangin' in the palms dear
All my thoughts are lost in Pawley's interest
Rock me gently the waves are softly rollin'
Salty breezes blowin' through the screen dear
Pour me some of your old fashioned magic
I can hear you whispering in my ear

Don't try to offer me anything
What it comes right down to baby
Don't tempt me; I'm where I wanna be
Cause on the eighth day, God made sweet tea

Certain things in life I like to savor
Watchin' clouds and waitin' on the rain
If you ever question my behavior
Just a taste will make you feel the same now

Don't try to offer me anything
What it comes right down to baby
Don't tempt me; I'm where I wanna be
Cause on the eighth day, God made sweet tea

We've known each other goin' on thirty years
Seen a lot of joy; we've seen a lot of tears
Still I wouldn't change a single thing that I did
Cause we're here, yea.....

Don't try to offer me anything
What it comes right down to baby
Don't tempt me; I'm where I wanna be
Cause on the eighth day, God made sweet tea

Don't try to offer me anything
What it comes right down to baby
Don't tempt me; I'm where I wanna be
Cause on the eighth day, God made sweet tea

cravin melon omg lmao

― latebloomer, Sunday, 29 April 2007 20:16 (nineteen years ago)

I always thought the only reason for restaurants to serve unsweetened tea was to allow the calorie-conscious among us to add their preferred artificial sweetener, y'know, as a sensitive nod to customer choice. It never occurred to me that anyone would drink un-sweet tea voluntarily.

haha Laurel otm

So hang on whats the difference between putting yr own sugar into tea (and I dont put much!) and "sweet tea"? Is it like HORRIBLY RLY SWEET?

― Trayce, Sunday, 29 April 2007 21:13 (nineteen years ago)

I think I wd be in sunny's shoes if I ever came to the South :(

― Trayce, Sunday, 29 April 2007 21:13 (nineteen years ago)

Southern "sweet tea" = black tea with lots of sugar. It is often HORRIBLY RLY SWEET. Also it is served chilled/on ice.

― Curt1s Stephens, Sunday, 29 April 2007 21:21 (nineteen years ago)

I did not know this!

The oldest known recipe for sweet ice tea was published in 1879 in a community cookbook called Housekeeping in Old Virginia, by Marion Cabell Tyree. This recipe calls for green tea. In fact, most sweet tea consumed during this period was green tea. However, during World War II, the major sources of green tea were cut off from the United States, leaving them with tea almost exclusively from British-controlled India which produces black tea. Americans came out of the war drinking nearly 99 percent black tea.

― Curt1s Stephens, Sunday, 29 April 2007 21:24 (nineteen years ago)

OK so, iced tea then thats what I thought. Its just a totally diff thing to normal hot tea!

― Trayce, Sunday, 29 April 2007 21:35 (nineteen years ago)

Im sorry I sound so britisher :(

― Trayce, Sunday, 29 April 2007 21:41 (nineteen years ago)

i really prefer unsweetened iced tea! it annoys me that it is so hard to find this in bottled/canned form. itoen teas are becoming more available, but always $2+. snapple, etc., all undrinkable nastiness.

― bell_labs, Sunday, 29 April 2007 21:45 (nineteen years ago)

Bottled/canned sweet tea is generally an atrocity.

― Curt1s Stephens, Sunday, 29 April 2007 21:54 (nineteen years ago)

We have peach iced tea in bottles here, I inhale that stuff. I love it.

― Trayce, Sunday, 29 April 2007 21:54 (nineteen years ago)

xpost awww I suck.

― Trayce, Sunday, 29 April 2007 21:55 (nineteen years ago)

hahaha

Thats it I'm never coming to visit y'all now!

(cheers from general direction of US)

― Trayce, Sunday, 29 April 2007 21:59 (nineteen years ago)

I've never actually had peach iced tea but I know lots of people who like it. I'm scared to try it.

― Curt1s Stephens, Sunday, 29 April 2007 21:59 (nineteen years ago)

SNAPPLE IS DOO DOO

― JW, Sunday, 29 April 2007 22:02 (nineteen years ago)

They dont have that here but we have Liptons which is probably just as crappy... it doesnt taste like tea that's for sure, just like a watery peach flavoured sweet thing. I like it.

― Trayce, Sunday, 29 April 2007 22:04 (nineteen years ago)

The important elements of sweet tea are that a) you add the sugar while it's hot so it dissolves completely and easily, not like having to stir and stir and stir to sweeten cold tea (which is what simple syrup is for), b) you make it REALLY strong with lots of tea bags (altho do not steep indefinitely, that leads to bitterness -- the secret is LOTS of bags and to let them steep undisturbed w/o agitating or squeezing), and c) you serve it over a whole glass of ice with either a sprig of mint or a lemon wedge, so the melting ice dilutes both the strength and sweetness of the tea concentrate and the garnish adds some kind of palate-cleaning freshness. A good reason to have a pot of mint growing on yr windowsill.

― tehresa, Monday, 30 April 2007 00:44 (nineteen years ago)

i think g. singleton had a sweet tea poem that was much better but i can't find it :(

― tehresa, Monday, 30 April 2007 00:46 (nineteen years ago)

okay how laurel described it sounds good!
the steeping time for regular tea is key to its goodness yeah. but i would still not put all that sugar in. i didn't even drink tea until i was in my late teens and never had a thing for that iced tea in cans or restaurant fountains. but i don't even know what we drank when we were kids - juice? water? milk? yeah. not iced tea. i bet this is mostly b/c it was the pacific northwest and we weren't spending all day sweating in the sun. and the hippie healthfood factor.

so i am going to make iced tea and maybe iced coffee this summer then! it is so exciting my new full-blown caffeine love and its possibilities.
