you inconsiderate monster

yorkshire tea dancing is a venerable tradition. as someone who once visited yorkshire, i'm appalled.

      yeah i know. it's rididuclous. one guy is like "i'm doing 15 hours a day" he doesn't realise what he's doing is essentially undoing any good work anyone else does. i'm all about quality, not quantity

I do this when being handed a cup of tea sometimes

But I'm sitting down so it's less of a dance and more of a panicked shuffle.

This probably comes down to your lack of alpha male-ness, to be honest.

As soon as you hear them coming, a stern "just on the side, please...cheers" and all's right.

I ignore someone until the tea is placed on a surface near by

then I acknowledge that they're there and have made me tea

I get really narked if I'm forced to take it off them and feel my hand being melted into the firey mass of the outer surface of the mug.
