getting the tea made?

Right. My flatmate and I have this thing whereby if you say someting with the sound 't' in it, you need to make a cuppa.

For example,

Him: See that thing you put your golfball on before you hit it, what's it called?

Me: A tee?

Him: milk and two sugars please!

So, the others one's I've been hit with are Mr T. (from the A-team), and the T-Birds (from Grease). Can anyone help me with some more that I can get him with? They need to be really inconspicious and not at all obvious. He's a doctor as well, so if there are medical terms I can use, then that'd be great.

p.s. I'm sure that I said that there should be a forum for 'pointless banter' at some stage since I've been a member here, and I got slated for it. I tried searching for it, but couldn't find anything. Could any of you help with that as well? :thumb:

    Depends how far you milk it (pardon the pun)

    T-Bone steak flavoured Roysters? T-Mobile? Do you have a mutual friend called Steve?

    Me and my mate Gary are like this at work, pointless banter is the way ahead.

    Today's subject was "What is the weirdest thing you haven't smuggled into the country?", and then we had a 15 minute discussion about how he didn't shove cheese up his arse on the way back from Holland.

    Funnily enough, the subject cropped up again when the subject of overtime was discussed, and he remarked that "he'd rather stick bees up his arse" than do overtime.

    Not that we waste time speaking shite or anything.

    T-Mobile? .

    That's great, I like that one. I've thought up of one about ATP which I'm sure he'll go for as well. and as for the 'not smuggling cheese up your arse chat', I think that's an ideal example of 'pointless banter' :thumb:

    I think I get it. When I said something with a 't' sound in it, I meant it like t-mobile, mr-t, a tee for golf. Sorry if that wasn't clear :(

    'How do you spell tracheotemy?' (the operation where they put a hole in your wind pipe so you can breathe, cant remember what it's called)

    :D easy. In fact, it's got 2 Ts in, so you could have 2 cuppas!

    eta: apparently it's tracheotomy or tracheostomy. :thumb:

    In statistics there is a test known as the t-test (also called the student t-test).
