As well you should.
I have often deployed the uf gnog technique by way of practice. Those among
you who have found it in your hearts to forgive me for breaking expensive
gaiwan lids can only imagine what I have done to tasting and aroma cups as I
gracelessly flip them over in the classic manner of Brooklyn. I have been
told from other sources however that spills and breakage are more tolerable
in uf gnog than gung fu. Others are in a better position to comment.
I'm drinking a Wulong from Big Apple this morning and find it absolutely
charming. On another note, I've been brewing my gung fu tea purposely
stronger than I usually do, and to good effect. (Maybe that wasn't on
another note.)
