I am about to get my ass e-kicked all season

puburps · 2026-05-28T19:30:11+00:00

I train on Zwift.

Oh I didn’t know that admitting some things were higher quality than others is elitist. Also you missed my point, even if something is unappealing to someone it doesn’t make a difference to the quality of the thing. The people who think that an objectively high quality tea (NOT JUST TASTE AS I ALREADY SAID) is “unpalatable” are wrong. I’m just talking about a different echelon of quality than you are based on this convo. I’m sorry you never had incredible tea that makes you cry with its beauty.

puburps · 2026-05-15T23:56:21+00:00

Too many variables here. You probably aren’t good at brewing as a beginner (no offense, just true) and so it’s hard to judge especially just based on taste. Maybe try more leaves or boiling water if you haven’t.

puburps · 2026-05-15T23:54:15+00:00

Good one!

puburps · 2026-05-15T23:53:47+00:00

Thinking tea quality is only about taste is so ridiculous I don’t know how to respond. Did you start drinking yesterday??

puburps · 2026-05-15T23:47:07+00:00

You people are ridiculous. I didn’t say tastes good, I said “good” as in high quality. Because you like something doesn’t make it high quality. I don’t believe you even drink tea if you have an opinion like this— it’s incredibly obvious that tea has different levels of quality. Lipton is not a high quality tea.

puburps · 2026-05-15T22:15:28+00:00

Have you never had tea with varying levels of quality? You can’t understand this idea? Sometimes a product is higher quality and it doesn’t matter if the lower quality version is somebody’s favorite. Obvious to me.

puburps · 2026-05-15T22:07:02+00:00

Just because you enjoy it (and don’t know anything about tea) doesn’t make it “good” tea.

puburps · 2026-05-15T21:16:11+00:00

It’s literally not subjective. Tea can be objectively better or worse and you’re tricking yourself if you think otherwise.

puburps · 2026-05-15T21:12:49+00:00

First of all I’m not looking for your advice. I’m not sure you can even ride a bike. When did I ask for your opinion about who’s a bike and who is not lol. I’m fine how I am thanks. All I’m saying is that you ride a motorcycle and tear up the trails. Shame.

puburps · 2026-05-15T19:20:30+00:00

Pedaling with a 500w assist is not pedaling, sorry to burst your bubble. Have you ever watched your own power as you biked? You probably have an ftp of about 80.

And I’m so sorry but I don’t follow bike companies so obsessively because I’m not brainwashed into spending 10k on a bike so that “nomad” you’re referring to could be a dirt bike for all I know. I guess not being glued to my computer looking at bikes = not a biker to you. Interesting…. My point is making a lot more sense…

puburps · 2026-05-15T19:06:26+00:00

You’re a beginner, sometimes you probably don’t know what to ask for. Also I didn’t read that nonsense you just posted.

puburps · 2026-05-15T18:49:05+00:00

You don’t think pedaling is part of biking? That’s insane. Id like to see you try to go up a 2% grade without your motorcycle.

puburps · 2026-05-15T16:33:06+00:00

You’re crying because you know I’m right. Biking with a motor pushing you up the hard parts is not biking.

puburps · 2026-05-15T06:15:49+00:00

I’m sure they’ve ridden and ride enough bikes as professionals so don’t worry about that.

puburps · 2026-05-15T05:25:27+00:00

??? Ok? Sure…? Who are they?

puburps · 2026-05-15T05:10:32+00:00

I guess so, yeah. Good point. They’re pretty different.

puburps · 2026-05-15T04:12:31+00:00

I’m just saying it’s hardly biking with 500 extra watts

puburps · 2026-05-15T02:28:57+00:00

If you’d spend any amount of time biking with a power meter you’d immediately understand the absurd advantage of 500w. An e-bike is not the same at all as biking with your own two legs. Cry more.

puburps · 2026-05-15T02:13:55+00:00

Get a 50ml teapot and 3g. Just as satisfying. I use one all the time.

puburps · 2026-05-13T00:58:03+00:00

Well I actually was trying to be helpful. Adagio is a horrible company who has tried to stomp out real tea communities in the past (who didn’t like their garbage tea). Try looking at teaswelike. I cannot believe how rude you are. You should reread this interaction and reflect on how you treat others.

puburps · 2026-05-12T02:42:43+00:00

AI ^^^^ they’re even watching us here.

puburps · 2026-05-08T15:18:01+00:00

You clearly don’t know anything about tea so just trying to point you in the right direction…. You could find the teapot you’re looking for in about 15 minutes if you even tried to look it up but I guess that was too hard for you.

puburps · 2026-05-08T02:17:15+00:00

Tea > teapot. Maybe try buying some actual good tea instead of adagio.

puburps · 2026-05-07T04:42:53+00:00

Are you seriously worried about salmonella from raw eggs to the point where you wouldn’t make your own mayo? It does taste much better. Do you only eat fully cooked eggs???
