Friday Wisdom

Posted on 09/01/2023 by Andrew Reynolds

I had a cup of tea today so here’s what I know about tea:

What dinosaur drank tea? Tea-Rex.

What dos a teapot wear to a party? A tea-shirt.

How did Moses make tea? Hebrews it.

What do you call a dentist who doesn’t like tea? Denis.

What kind of tea did American colonists want? Liberty.

What kind of tea to hockey players hate? Penal-tea.

I don’t like coffee – just not my cup of tea.

What kind of tea hits the hardest? Reality.

When I designed websites I used to drink URL Grey tea.

Never take a cup of tea from the President of Russia – you don’t know what Vladimir Putin.

Last night I paused the movie to go make a cup of tea and that’s how I lost my job.

A journey of a 1,000 cups begins with a single steep.

I went to the doctor and told her that I got a pain in my eye every time I drank tea. She suggested I take the spoon out before I drink.

    Okay, so I thought I knew which would be my favorite, but then I got to the last one about the spoon in the eye and knew that was the winner. (It was probably Reality before that one. Or a single steep. Hard to choose, really.) 😛

    Mostly “Dad jokes” here, but “Hebrews it” was a cut above 🙂

    I’m a tea drinker. I love the 1000 cups starts with a single steep. For me it really is 1000 steps, back and forth to the bathroom. These are all great. Thanks.

    Do you realise that your gag about Putin is literally a true word spoken in jest?
