New tea user; questions about brewing & Zisha Yixing po

[chris]

can i buy a bowel?

[chris]

Yep.

That was indeed fun.

[klemptor]

can i buy a bowel?

That boweled me over, Chris!

That boweled me over, Chris!

Now y'all are just boweling for flames!

[Guest]

Site Admin. did exactly as he is paid to do. He or one of his lackeys stirs the pot and all you fools line up. MikeB sits with a dictionary you-know-where. It is laughable!

[klemptor]

Guest, either relax or go away. Remove the stick that seems to be shoved up your bowel.

[chris]

Wait a minute -- I have lackeys? If only I'd have known this before, I wouldn't have missed all those "with lacky-only" parties.

By the way, as the Site Admin I ask that you, our belligerent guest, please stop posting anonymously and create an account. This way we know exactly where your intelligent and meaningful posts are coming from.

Stirring the pot,

This is making my day.....

[Marlene]

Yeah, me too! It just bowels me over!

edit: damn, K got to that one first!

[Mike B]

MikeB sits with a dictionary you-know-where. It is laughable!

And not a little bit painful.

[klemptor]

And not a little bit painful.

And knowing you, Mike, it's not even abridged. Were you more tech-savvy, I'd introduce you to this little wonder called "Merriam-Webster Online" - it's gotta be more bowel-friendly.

But you are still blown away by the mimeograph, so I'd better not push it.

Hmm... I'm at a loss. Are we supposed to be offended? Cos, ya know, I'm not. Because the Site Admin. (who, by the way, has a name, which happens to be Chris) is our friend. And friends have a tendency to appreciate each other's humor and back each other up. So you have made an invalid point, and I would just like you to know that.

And that laughing you're doing? That's not scorn you're experiencing. It's amusement. And you don't want to admit it. Just a theory.

So, we'll be here, ready to feed you all the snappy responses you could want, should you see fit to grace us with your presence again and give us the drama that we all secretly love for the opportunities it gives us to let out our aggressive sides. Or if you're already bored, goodbye and don't let the door hit you on your way out.

p.s. ~ Does anybody else wonder at the identity of this unwelcome "Guest"? If I had less faith in the human race, I'd think that floridahawk hadn't really accepted Mike's apology but had in fact decided to come back and anonymously flame the board. Apologies to floridahawk if that scenario is completely false. It just boggles me that anyone not involved in the original spat would care to step in.

Just as a gut instinct, I don't think it's floridahawk. I think it was really big of floridahawk to apologize - I thought that was really nice of him/her.

I was thinking it's possibly Suzanne again, but I'd hate to lay it at anybody's feet without having proof. "Guest" seems to have anger toward Chris and we TeaChatters in general; Suzanne certainly fits the bill for that.

If only "guest" would stop hiding behind his/her anonymous handle and debate like an adult, rather than making snide comments with his/her anonymity firmly in place, like a damn safety net. Or, you know, just go away and stop flaming pointlessly.

[teaspoon]

Good point, Klemptor. I couldn't agree more.

The "Guest" is quite obviously Mike B.
