I tend to associate Twinings with over-priced, posh teas - like your fruit or herbal things - and Tetley with your basic builders brew.

Which would make Twinings = Apple and Tetley = Android.

Except Twinings haven't sued Tetley for selling tea.

Try a cup of their English Breakfast or Earl Grey, that might cure that (although the way they market, I can see your point). And all of the varieties - that's HTC. Maybe Tetley is more like Samsung.



Lmao

ROFL

Samsung is to Android what Tetley is to tea. :laugh:

No, no and thrice no.

If Samsung made tea bags they'd look plasticky, but surprise you with the best tea you'd ever tasted.

If Tetley made an Android phone, it would be strong, easy to use and er not much else.

I have to say I'm amused by the thought of tea, regularly drunk in offices, factory floors and most homes here in Britain being a Twinnings blend. While Twinnings is bought and used. It id considered 'posh'. The vast majority of tea is black tea like Tetley served with milk and often sugar.

Nokia has their own OS as well as the makers of Blackberry. Thier still in the game.

Far better than inorganic tea.

That would be surprising, I agree.

I'm not surprised. Over here in the US, Twinings is just a good tea.

Yes, Nokia is still in the game with their own operating system - in India. That will keep up until the Microsoft quisling in charge dictates otherwise. If you go into a shop and ask for Nokia tea, you'll be served a glass of Tang. If you ask for Blackberry tea, they'll give you a cup of water, heated is extra. In the UK, they'll give you a cup of water with milk and sugar in it (international model BB tea).

I love how far we've taken the tea metaphor. It's far superior to the microsoft one.

SUroot was being ironic, but he didn't realize he was onto something.

Is that hot water or cold?

Tepid?

Bah! The tea metaphor is confusing. In the UK they drink black tea, and in Chinese restaurants they serve green tea. At home I have a whole selection of exotic teas like lapsang souchong and Constant Comment. Here in the US everyone must be exceptional!

How about coffee? Apple is Keurig. A costly and pretentious way to get a stupid cup of coffee. Android is a very nice UI and execution environment for Linux that any coffee drinker would be perfectly happy to use.

I'm rooted with some bodacious tweaks.

My phone is a double espresso with a twist.
