I was waiting for it to transition to throwing raw eggs and gasping.
It’s missing the bag breaking a little earlier and falling into the cup so you have to fish it out with the spoon. Bonus points if the spoon is too short
They forgot the part where you sit on the couch waiting for the tea to steep and then remember you made tea 45 minutes later.
Or finally take the first sip, then get distracted by something else and discover your cold cup on the counter hours later.
Holy shit, that hit the spot. The bag fucking up at the end is just the cherry on top. Chef’s kiss!

THIS TEA IS IN AN UNACCEPTABLE
CONDITION
UNACCEPTABLE
aaaand I’m going to bed upset. Thanks OP
Needs a jettle
A jeans kettle? Is that practical?
No a Jet Kettle
Funny, but I’m not sure I understand how they got footage of every moment of my life for the past couple of decades?
Everything in this video is ‘fixable’ : hold the damn tab while pouring water, install the bin liner properly, cellophane is not that difficult, etc.
But the thing that triggers me like nothing else is the semi-perforated ‘easy opening’ half-circle of that carton box. Those fail without fail and I am convinced it is constructed by satan himself, just to mess with your mind and propel your anger to new heights. Same as with those easy to tear strips, they never rip in one go and always fail at about 5% of the tear-action. May the gods of retribution take extra notice and effort to espouse their vindictive cruel ways upon these so called ‘designers’ who invent them. May the fleas of a thousand camels invade the crotch of the person. And may their arms be to short too scratch.
Easy tear strips you should pull slightly down as well as across, I basically never have an issue with those.
Easy opening perforated boxes are a lie and I just open them like a normal one because tearing the glue designed to be permanent is a lot easier than opening the easy open section.
My wife and I have been joking about the perforation machine conspiracy for a couple of years now
Tell me you’re not British without telling me you’re not British
Do the British not drink tea in bags?
Yeah, but not annoying individually wrapped bags like this.
This is like ASMR for masochists
Yo, they put each teabag in plastic in the US or what? It’s always paper where I live. You guys are crazy.
It’s super common around the world. My friend group is starting to focus on loose leaf tea for that exact reason.
The power outlets in the first frame look European, but yeah, you can even just dump the teabags into a cardboard box without a wrapper and it’s perfectly fine. I would love to know why manufacturers are hellbent on adding useless packaging material.

German Schucko?
SchuKo
Yeah, that’s my guess, although it’s not just popular in Germany:
It’s a British (registered there) brand of tea, produced in Ukraine and Russia, and mainly distributed in Europe (I personally have seen it in several EU countries). And yeah, this type of tea is always packed like this. At least they stopped using metal clips for teabags lately, from what I’ve seen.
I usually see them in paper here in the US, too. But I would imagine it depends on brand. I’m a cheapskate so I usually just get Bigelow or Lipton.
It’s also paper for some types of tea in Europe. Especially anything medicinal often has plastic.
