Jom ngeteh, teh apa yang sedap ni




Let's Talk 'Tea'


Spill it, sip it: just make it hot.



If you're on the Internet at all, you've likely seen the meme of Kermit the Frog sipping a cup of tea. In fact, it's so popular that it has its own category on the GIF repository Giphy.com, and the famed frog himself has commented on it:


But Kermit isn't the only one with a cup. Plenty of skeptical people on Twitter sip tea:

and spill it:


and call it out when it's weak:


All well and good: but what's it all about?



[size=1.0625em]Steeped to perfection.





As we see with many slang words that take off on the Internet, teadidn't originate online. But it does share an origin point with many other common terms being passed around social media.
Like shade before it, tea originated in drag culture, and specifically black drag culture. When it was first popularized in general print, it could be spelled T or tea and it didn't refer to the drink. One of our early print uses of T comes from John Berendt's nonfiction best seller, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. In it, he is interviewing The Lady Chablis, a prominent drag performer in Savannah, about her dating life, and she notes that she avoids certain men because they're prone to violence when they "find out her T":

"Your T?"

"Yeah, my T. My thing, my business, what's goin' on in my life."
— Lady Chablis quoted in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, John Berendt, 1994

Chablis' interviews in Berendt's book gave the world a peek into the vocabulary of black drag culture. T here is short for truth, and her truth is that she's transgender. (It's worth noting that Chablis herself uses the letter T instead of the word tea in her 1997 autobiography, and glosses it as "my Truth.")

It appears that T, also spelled tea, had a double-edged meaning in black drag culture. It could refer to a hidden truth, as Chablis uses it, and it could also refer to someone else's hidden truth—that is, gossip:

Straight life must be so boring. Because everyone conforms. These gay kids carry on. ... They give you dance and great tea [gossip].
— "Nate" quoted in One of the Children: An Ethnography of Identity and Gay Black Men, William G. Hawkeswood, 1991

As drag culture—and particularly black drag culture—gained prominence, so too did this dual meaning use of tea. It's spread far beyond black drag culture at this point. The phrase "spill the tea," used as an encouragement to gossip, has been used in everything from Harlequin romance novels to "RuPaul's Drag Race"; "no tea, no shade" has been featured in explainers on black gay slang; comedian Larry Wilmore used "weak tea" regularly on his 2015-16 Comedy Central show in response to people who weren't telling the absolute truth.

And, of course, tea has shown up on social media in a plethora of reaction memes, GIFs, hashtags, BuzzFeed listicles, and even a meta take on the 2015 show "Scream Queens". (Whether that last one is a positive or a negative is up to the individual reader.) For now, we're letting it steep.

ohhhh...so how about the phrase "spill the tea"? sbb tea yg T tuh tak punya form untuk ditumpahkan manakala tea pula memang dlm bentuk liquid yg boleh di 'spill' kan. adakah phrase itu diwujudkan selepas T bertukar menjadi tea?

btw kalau chartime or talive iolss suke hazelnut milk tea drpd pearl milk tea

I love green tea. Minum ni at least 2 cawan sehari.

Spearmint tea bagus for those with hormonal acne. Minum kekadang sebab rasanya cannot go sangat for me.

Earl Grey tea to kick start my morning since I'm not a coffee person.

Masa undergrad, iols stop minum kopi sbb jadik ketagih so iols minum twinings earl grey, 2 sugars, no milk. Mmg cara british, every problem is solved by having a cup of tea. Kalo mak org asia, solve all problems by drinking more water

Balik mesia. Teh o ais and teh ais pilihan kalo air masak/mineral takde. Kat kursus, minum teh pon ok. Kopi pun bedal je kalo takde pilihan.

Milk tea with pearls pun best kalo pi sopping mall. Kalo tak minum la jus.

Dolu2 kalo i pi melancong, i belikan teh sbg souvenir. Skang ni, pi jln dah tak kosa nak beli souvenirs.

Sekian.

Hari cuti ada jugak saya try buat teh lain sikit lah. Uncang teh saya rendam bersama hirisan halia + gula sikit.
Ada jugak masak air + serai. Air dah masak rendam uncang teh. Saje je cuba semua untuk dapatkan aroma segar dan wangi untuk release stress.
Teh mesti minum panas untuk elak angin badan
