Does size matter?

[parodyluvr75]

So ladies, I wanted to know. Does size really matter?

 

[butters]

yes, it has to be the perfect size. i have one mug i like to use best for my coffee, and if i have to use a different one it sucks and for tea, i prefer a bone-china one and, again, it has to be just right. no, i am not goldilocks. well, not anymore.

My bowl was perfect. Then, I chipped it. Why do they make the racks in the dishwasher, so un-usable ?

I am afraid to unpack the Spring tea cups. I dropped the box, and it fell from a height.

The coffee cup I use every day, I bought in 1982. Gallons and gallons have gone through that cup, and it's been all over the world. I think I've washed it twice in all those years.

Coffee vs tea, that'll be another hot thread topic.

I have a big mugs. I try to get ones with funny pictures on them. Other than that I'm not picky either.

It's called seasoning and for some reason, the females of the species have this genetic predisposition to wash it off.

I have a nice bowl mug. I use it for soup and coffee. Yeah I've had stuff chipped in the dishwasher. I need a smart one that talks to me, I wonder where mike yates got his?

Not good.

A seasoned coffee cup?

Tight shoes hurt and loose shoes slip off. The important thing is not size, but fit.

When I buy a suit, I have to start with a size 52 or 54, then have the chest and waist taken in to 48 and 36. If I start with a 48 jacket, I can't move my shoulders.

this belongs in the 'i'm a nOOb with a serious question' thread. and i agree - it's all about matching up the fits.

Nothing sloppier looking than a fine jacket with an ill fit.

But you must take a side in our coffee cup/mug drama or mock Johnny because he grows lab experiments between cups.

Well put.

I've worn enough shoes, all in the same size, to know which brands fit me the best. I now gravitate towards those brands, slowly replacing all of the not-quite pairs in my closet.

I chose my silverware based on how the spoon bowl fit in my mouth. The spoon has the greatest surface contact with a mouth, versus the fork (or knife), and it was key to ensure a pleasing fit.

That's because we don't care for mold and mildew as a seasoning ingredient.

aesthetically i prefer smaller cups, but let's face it: without a pot of tea or coffee sitting near by small cups are fucking pointless.

But some weirdos only drink a small cup of coffee a day. I don't trust people who do that. But they aren't as deviant as those who don't drink coffee.

I like a big heavy mug. I'm less inclined to tip it or spill it.

It's known as Roquefort Coffee. It's an acquired taste, usually by people who were too sleepy to look in the cup and then discover they just brewed the last bit of fresh coffee in the house. Stir well.

I remember firing a Chief's Mess crank over washing my cup.

These women just don't get it

You season a skillet not a coffee cup. Gross.

i spend less time with spoons than forks, and for me the fork has to be slender or it feels wrong. I have a favourite fork Time i got around to replacing everything again for matching cutlery, but i have 2 sons indoors who manage to 'lose' so many items - generally teaspoons, but lately it's forks. I keep buying more but none of the forks feels so well in my mouth as this particular one - the last in its line.

then i'm at least somewhat deviant because i only drink coffee when i'm in the mood for it which isn't all that often.

Typical split tail.

I'm a coffee addict, you're probably better off not being one. It's my main vice.
