I have no tea…
What should I do?
If you haven't already solved your problem you should knock on your neighbour's door and ask if you can borrow or buy some tea! I would never refuse such a request! Infact I'd give it to you!
What goes around comes around. I feel for you!
Prepare for the end of the world!!!!
Sorry….does not compute….
You've run out of TEA? How could you let that happen? Even if I ran out of Earl Grey, I'd still have some Assam (and the rest…). Give yourself a good telling off and get to the shops NOW!
That happened to me the last time I went away for the weekend, my flatmates finished the tea. Luckily I had some chi and herbal teas in the back of my cupboard.
I know what I'd do, I'd shout NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! in an extremely loud voice as though my very soul was being ripped from my body in an incredibly dramatic way and then find a tea bag (preferably an unused one) to suck until I could replenish my supplies (which would be about two minutes, seriously I'd be running like the roadrunner with a rocket up it's backside down to the nearest shop that sells tea and back). I would then immediately put the kettle on and make a brew
I think I'd also prepare for the end of the world and break out the emergency supplies I keep in case of Vogons appearing (kettle, as many packs of loose leaf tea and tea bags as I can carry, teapot and Towel all kept in glass case with "in case of Vogons (or other tea emergency) break glass" written on the front and a sledge hammer hanging beside it).
Surely in the event of Vogon attack one should rush to the pub and drink 3 pints of bitter?
Do not forget to get lots of peanuts, and be sure to quickly befriend a Betelgeuseian!
Avoiding the poetry of course…
… of course, as it is the third worst poetry in the Universe!
I thought it was the second worst – i'm going to have to hunt up my hitch-hiker's guide….
Well that's item no. on my list of tings to do in case of Vogon attack (those are just my necessary supplies) and I have actually worked out the odds of all my closest friends actually being from a planet somewhere in the vicinity of Betelgeuse (the best i've got is 3-1 in favor) the only problem is I wouldn't be able to claim my riches (I've got a tenner on the Earth being destroyed by Vogons with odds of 3,000,000,000,000,000,000,

Ah, here we are… chapter 7…
"Vogon poetry is of course the third worst in the Universe. The second worst is that of the Azgoths of Kria. During a recitation by their Poet Master Grunthos the Flatulent of his poem "Ode To A Small Lump Of Green Putty I Found In My Armpit One Midsummer Morning" four of his audience died of internal haemorrhaging and the President of the Mid-Galactic Arts Nobbling Council survived by gnawing one of his own legs off. Grunthos is reported to have been "disappointed" by the poem's reception, and was about to embark on a reading of his twelve-book epic entitled My Favourite Bathtime Gurgles when his own major intestine, in a desperate attempt to save life and civilisation, leapt straight up through his neck and throttled his brain.
The very worst poetry of all perished along with its creator Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings of Greenbridge, Essex, England in the destruction of the planet Earth."
So there you are, Stephanie!
Think I need a brew now after all that! c\_/
OK, I need a brew anyway, but that's beside the point, lol!
Ah, an excellent a thoughtful response.
However, I believe the correct action in this situation is to "drop no tea" in order to pick up tea, then eventually pick up no tea, in order to have both "tea" and "no tea" at the same time, thus proving the superiority of one's intelligence.
Sack your butler; he's obviously not doing his job!
To have tea and no tea at the same time, one must be called Schroedinger. Just don't buy a cat.
Not a fan of Schroedinger meself much prefer Heisenberg's uncertainty and chaos theory, best summarized thusly
"Shit happens, Get over it!"
P.S. just noticed the progress of this thread, we've gone form discussing what to do if you've run out of tea, to The Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, and now onto Philosophical theories
God, we are random, must be all the tea, coincidently who wants one?
Let me draw your attention to the following quote:-
"Tea, though ridiculed by those who are naturally coarse in their nervous sensibilities…will always be the favored beverage of the intellectual."
- Thomas DeQuincy
It seems also that Schroedinger's cat not only got the cream but got the tea as well!
Would love one, thanks! c\_/
Now, we're back to tea again! Yay!
Hang on, if it's tea that makes us all random, that explains a lot… and suggests that our Patron Saint of Tea, given how random he is, must consume even more of the stuff than we previously considered!
I wonder if tea's ever bin pointed to as a cause of mental abnormalities and ill health? I know I've become much more random since I started drinking tea more regularly and I'm much more random than any other of my non-Tea drinking mates. Oh well It's something to think about over a brew. \_/
I think tea is essential for GOOD mental health!
There's nothing wrong with being random anyway! If there was something wrong with being random, we'd really have to worry about Mr Hunt, wouldn't we?! No-one out-randoms David!
