You've been waiting.

Here it is.

I hope it's not too disappointing. 

My 100,000th post is also a poll!

 

Poll Part:

 

Bubble Tea.

There are two kinds of people in the world.

Those that make the effort to suck up all or almost all of the bubbles in the cup and those that just leave lots of 'em.

Which kind of person are you?

If you haven't done bubble tea, GUESS your bubble tea behavior and vote accordingly.

Second part:

 

-- Posting error.

-- Enjoy each miserable day.

-- Who is Thaiquila?

Should be a third option:-

 

 

“I have no idea <deleted> you are talking about”.

hated when there's some left behind the ice in your empty cup, have to pour some liquid like milk or water in to suck them all up

I tend to leave both the "tea" and the "bubbles" in the cup. I don't like tapioca or sugary drinks, so this stuff completely misses the mark for me.

Yes some of the places let you choose your level of sugar including no sugar. I only go to those places and do 25 percent. The bubbles aren't really sweet. It's more about texture.

Oh I see. I guess the vendors have responded to consumer wants. I only remember this stuff as being super sugary. And yes, tapioca (cassava) is just a ball of carbs so no sweetness to it. At 25% of the usual sweetness, it may be alright.

Keep trying, you'll get the hang of it some day.

 

I get all the balls, every time, I can't stand to miss any balls, even the half balls get sucked up.

Do you have a video on porntube?

I tend to avoid them.  They can causes a blockage, and when blowing to clear the straw, I can get tea all over my shirt.

 

Plus they look like rabbit poo.

I've paid for them, I'm sucking up every last one!

 

But as many above, I only go to places which do (much) reduced sweetness.

 

"I don't want to know why you can't. I want to know how you can!"

I prefer to blow them around the bottom of the cup. Like air hockey. 

Suck em, blow em, roll them around on my tongue, hold them in my teeth and and then swallow load after load.

I've never had bubble tea.  Does it mix well with scotch, gin or vodka?

Ahh so this is how you get to 100,000

I've been aware of Bubble Tea for a decade or two but never indulged.

 

But I take this opportunity to congratulate you @Jingthing on becoming a TVF centenarian (of sorts). Yes, I know that you are not a hundred years old.

Perhaps he is a centurion?

I happen to be an extreme case of needing to suck them all up. But it goes deeper than that. As has been mentioned they eventually get stuck in even the fat straws provided. So then you need to blow them back out. To actually get even close to sucking them all up, you need to remove the shrink wrap plastic on top that most places use and aggressively FISH for them, one by one. I leave no bubble unmolested! 

 

Any psychiatrists here are welcome to post their analysis of this behavior.

 

I was raised by depression era parents so encouraged to generally clean my plates but I don't always clean my plates for other foods either because I'm full or don't enjoy everything on the plate.

 

But them balls. Them balls. They've got to go up that straw!
