Coffee is very cheap if you actually just make it. Maybe not cheaper than 4¢ tea bags sure, but cheap.

Edit: if anyone is curious about making coffee simply at home, buy a French press (fancy doesn't matter, get a $15 one on Amazon) and some coffee grounds (taste is just an experiment of what brand you like. Eventually you'll want to grind your own beans but don't worry about it for now. If you can, get medium grind grounds, as that's supposed to be good for French presses) follow a guide online for making it. You'll need a way to measure hot water like a kettle, but that's the same for tea so hey.

Pardon me? Only uncultured american teenagers who don´t know anything about good taste believe such utter nonsense! What "tea" are you drinking anyway? Must be the dust they collect after sweeping the floor of the packing plant and then put in teabags to sell it to people who know nothing about tea. Do yourself a favour, go and buy some nice loose leaf Darjeeling, FTGFOP or even better SFTGFOP, prepare it properly and apprechiate something truly good, maybe it´s not too late and your taste can still be saved ...

Funny. I stopped drink energy drinks few years ago. I started going night shifts, and I used energy drinks and coffee. Then, I once said to myself I don't like the taste of energy drinks. I stopped drink energy drinks just in one day. Never have then since. Five years and still counting. On the other side, I started slightly drink more coffee.

Just put milk and sugar into your virgin black tea to turn into into the chad builder’s tea.

Teabags full of microplastic

It literally rains microplastics at this point. Just enjoy your cheap ass tea and try not to think about it.

Thousands from a teabag or a couple per litre of rainwater

I love the giant, inexpensive tins of ceylon tea at my local international market. If you can afford it, buy a bottle of rose water to add to the tea. Perfection. And of course, don't throw away the leaves - steep them again - the second steeping is even better than the first one.

Feel free to remake it!

Honestly I feel like the top one could have been old timey distracted boyfriend meme because 1800s was when US swapped to coffee hard.

Then could have made middle one look more millennial/z.

Then bottom one have it zoomed out to see Thor and could make him look raggedy and like a broke teen realizing that buying 2 monsters a day does not go over well.

Coffee wins every time, even if I have to pay $9+ for a goddamn bag 😭
