"Milk first or 2nd in your tea 3rd!
Its all very well jumping to the sugar in your tea conversation....but you havnt even done "coffee ot tea?'
 "
So in your opinion the Coffee or Tea question has priority and should be elevated above all others? |

Its can open up social complexities.
Eg Post the initial Coffee or tea may come the answer 'coffee'....then 'is it instant'?
'yes'
'In that case, can I have tea'
Or there may be two teas to choose from - each choice possibly communicating unspoken messages to all involved.
Then comes the social messaging involved in sugar - yes / no/how many/ Demerara darling?
Its an area worthy of great study, many disatations and a few PHDs and more.importantly multiple Fab threads  |

" Its can open up social complexities.

'yes'
'In that case, can I have tea'"
...and if the answer is
'no, fresh'
'In thar case, can I have tea'
" Or there may be two teas to choose from - each choice possibly communicating unspoken messages to all involved. "
Yes, it's important to pay attention to what they select. There's the right choice (tea-flavoured tea) and the wrong choice (anything else).
" Then comes the social messaging involved in sugar - yes / no/how many/ Demerara darling? "
Easy. None. I'm sweet enough already  |
