Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

This doesn't work. The water has to be boiling
It's sun tea.
You're definitely making tea wrong if you're putting the tea in boiling water.
Am I? Enlighten me!
It gets bitter if you use water that's too hot. For black tea you'll want to bring it to a boil, then take it off the heat and you can pretty much immediately add the tea then. For green tea you want it quite a bit cooler than that, and so forth.
That's basically what I do. I use a water boiler and put the boiling water into a cup or can with tea bag or more often tea strainer. Sorry if I was implying anything other than that
Oh, I was just trying to be silly by taking you too literally :)
It was silly of you to think you can "just be silly". This is a very serious community for all I know
Listen, if I'm using years old mass market black tea, scalding it is hardly going to make a difference. It's like saying your fucking up freeze dried coffee because your water is too hot.
I shudder at the thought of freeze dried coffee being even more fuckef up than it already is.
just wait one or two more years.
I guess you've never made iced tea then
Not with salt water
