Beverage Snob Website

Okay, I don't normally do this (post links), and I've not even reviewed the content of this site very much. Therefore, it could be this site is mostly hooey. That said, I like the concept. The following is a "beverage snob" website, for lovers of tea, beer, coffee, and wine. (The site is batting 1.000 here.) I've often joked with my friends that I am a connoisseur of addictive fluids. Apparently others have had similar revelations.

I just gave their tea pages a once-over without being overwhelmed by the depth or breadth of their information. Plus, they seem pretty eager to get you to buy from Adagio.

I have to disagree with the assertion that being a snob isn't about being better than someone else. Of course it is!

To be snob is to be toffee-nosed, supercilious, and stuck-up. Having a low sense of self-esteem is a big help. It's not easy to be pompous, priggish, or a bore, but someone has to do it. Snobs are insufferable. One trick is think about your vocabulary. Use words like mere, start every arcane statement with, "Of course, " or "Naturally." Then go on to talk about something, seemingly important, that no one else has heard of. Snobs are extravagantly important, even if only in their own minds. An expert is something quite different. An amateur is a person that engages in something for love.
