A glass? But I let it slide.
As it happened, there was only one mug, which I claimed, so he got his glass in the end.
Next question.
Me: "Milk?"
Him: "Milk? In tea? Hahaha!"
Americans are weird.

I have to admit, my uncle used to drink tea out of glasses. But it were glass mugs, and we still have those old glass mugs that are held in a basket kind of holder, so that you don't burn your fingers. So it's not *really* a glass. Just a mug made from glass.
And who drinks tea out of mugs anyway?
Okay, so I *do* have a mug that I drink tea out of. But I *HAVE* to.
It's my mug of World Domination!
And unless the tea in question is peppermint tea, milk is a must. Although I actually drank peppermint tea with milk (and *lots* of sugar. I was in Egypt at the time, and wanted to try it for once. The people there drink their tea terribly sweet.) before. It wasn't all that bad.
