The teaderboard

Théderboard
The world leader is probably a 700 pound woman in Alabama drinking sweet tea. You can get type 2 just by being in a room with her.
Can confirm. I drank basically nothing but sweet tea from the ages of like 10 until I was in my mid twenties, only supplementing with mountain dew.
Yes, I am diabetic, and my teeth have suffered. I drink almost exclusively water now. But Jesus, if you grew up in the south in the 90s and 00s, I don't remember anyone but my mom ever drinking water, and even she drank almost exclusively coke.
like. toilet water?
Wut
joke on the idiocracy thing since the characters in the movie don't drink water and only know normal water as the thing in the toilet.
Ahhh, yeah, I've never seen that one
At this point I would recommend against watching it. Good movie, but you'll damn near wish that was what we had to deal with, instead of what we currently have to deal with
Considering how much tea some people drink, the person who's actually #1 probably knows they're in the top 10, surely.
The person's drinking more then anyone they have ever met for starters. That would raise some suspicion in that circle of people.
How do we define it? The volume of liquid, or the weight of tea used for brewing?
I've seen to many people drinking what's closer to milky brackish water than a tea
Volume x He-man colour scale.
I've never seen a purple teabag, but now I want to
That's true, and people steep it for varying lengths of time. Can such a thing be measured?
I’d argue yes. What people care about more is minimum steep time and minimum leaves by weight per mL water. You can use the brew ratio for this to actually define your tea to a standard like black tea. Though you’d have to define brew ratio which I trust the British to do.
After you define those things though, you’d probably measure the amount of liquid and kind of ignore the weight of the tea and steep time, so long as they go over the minimum per serving. Unless you want to argue that adding more leaves/steep time means that you’re consuming more tea, which seems wrong.
Yup, if anyone can come up with an adequate measure for this, it'll be the British. They'll probably use some stupid units for it though, but fortunately online conversion tools are available.
I have about 4 pints / 2ish litres each day, so I reckon I'm placed high on that list.
Everybody is probably at the top of a leaderboard for some very niche thing.
Every year, I am the oldest person in my age for mere microseconds, and every year, I am the youngest person in my age for the microseconds immediately following it.
no, I am!
My microseconds are heavier than your microseconds, pretender!
I do my best to be mediocre is all respects, and not the most mediocre.
I bet that same person leaves a bunch of half cups around. I want categories. Most tea drank when every cup is drank to the last drop.
We don't need categories; just go by mL consumed.
Best I can do is British ounces.
in my mind it was like real men drink the bitter dregs :)
I kind of stopped doing it that often, but the usual cups and mugs are too small for me, so I drank te out of a 0,5 l mug. Most of the times, I wouldn't do that in one approach, so I had some cold tea left later.
only a half litre???
absolutely pathetic. drink tea from a litre bottle, or don't drink tea at all.
I don't mean ice tea from a bottle, I mean proper tea I make for myself at home. Nobody counts "lipton green kindatea, 2l" (although it is better than most sodas)
You may not know that you're at the TOP of the leaderboard, but you probably have a pretty good idea that you drink a lot of tea.
Same with the biggest poop, pretty cool to think about.
Err, no. No, it isn't.
Now I'm thinking about the poor toilet bowl, the mess in the toilet. And how it's definitely gonna be left in the next toilet in a pub I have to visit 😥
Bring your poop knife, you'll be fine.
Forget knives. In the UK, the police are so full of shit that they're asking people to hand-in Zombie blades and Machetes. Those poor constipated bastards.
I know it ain't me. i overindulge in coffee instead
Hmm, now I'm afraid to know what the most American individual would be. Sugar? Oil from deep fried foods? It's probably simpler to just go based on BMI.
