[Poll] Check One
Internets! I am still compiling the Woobie Poll of Dooooooooom, but in the meantime, here is a PRESSING QUESTION that came up today while I was (yay!) visiting with norah. Plus some other pressing questions, because why have one forced choice when you can have five?
So. For the rest of your life, you can only have one of each of the following pairs. Which will it be? Which is the ONLY ONE YOU CAN HAVE FOREVER? (If you already live without one or more of these, then obviously your choice is easier. Like, I will have no trouble at all with question three, but question one might kill me.)
I am also taking suggestions for future horrible forced choices. I would like to find the hardest forced choice in all the land. (That isn't, you know, of great weight or import. No Sophie's Choices.)

Am I going to forfeit my newly acquired shininess in your eyes if I admit that I drink it with milk and sugar? (And if so, will the forfeit be lessened if I hastily add that it must be actual milk - please to not be bringing those nasty petroleum byproducts masquerading as kremer anywhere near me, kthxbai - and actual sugar?)

And there is nothing whatsoever wrong with being a tea and water drinker. I went through large parts of my life not even drinking tea, actually, or soft drinks - being entirely caffeine-free, which as I look back on it is both amazing and probably way healthier. But I have a true-blue addiction to caffeine (the headache I got one morning recently when I found the milk had gone off AFTER I'd poured it into my brew and had to wait until lunchtime proves this yet again), plus I actively like the taste of good coffee. The taste of bad coffee would probably lose a popularity test against pond scum, but I don't drink that shit.
La Mama drank tea most of her life. Hard-core cinnamon-orange loose-leaf stuff, which in retrospect I think was pretty cool-tea-drinking-kid of her. She switched to coffee about three years before she died, and we never could figure out why. Possibly her taste buds had gone awry? Anyway, she gave teaheads a good name, as do you.
ETA: er. hard-CORE. hard-CORE. you'd think I'd know that word by now...
