I knew that would ruffle a few feathers 
I find when you put the milk in after that it cools the brew down too much.
Just as well I only drink Black Coffee |

No I tend to just butter the floor and just throw the slice on top of it "

"
And you squirt toothpaste straight on teeth "
I have a blind friend who squirts toothpaste straight on to his teeth as he says he can guarantee to get it in his mouth much better than getting it on the brush. |

"Milk in coffee first or it burns and tastes bitter.
Milk in tea last as the boiling water needs to release the tea flavour then add the milk  "
Agree with the milk in Coffe first for the same reason (although I only drink Black Coffee)
However if you put the milk in tea first then add the hot water, you still have to let the bag brew abit...

"It is not ok to taste someone else's cup of tea/coffee to check if you forgot to add sugar."
This is a definite NO NO...
Smelling someone elses food is also off the list, I hate when someone sniffs my plate of food |

"When you're making a cuppa, the milk goes in first when you're making it with a teapot  "
That's not exactly true either 
So
Obviously tea needs near boiling water to extract correctly
Thus absolutely never if making a mug of tea
However the origin of milk first comes from fine delicate China tea cups which if the hot water was added they could break hence the milk first concept
With modern chunky cups no difference however a fine tea brewed correctly(I like oolong loose tea made with a tea infuser ball),it could be said if being pretentious should not be ruined with milk but to just taint the tea if one must then post milk would enable the perfect dose
Obviously coffee is different
Expressed or stove top
85 degrees ish
Neat or milk warmed possibly steam frothed
Milk can be added to shot or shot to milk and they do taste different as there is a greater mix in the milk to shot method
No sugar in either
Now hot chocolate......
