‘Explanation’ threads are a-plenty in the Twitterverse these days. It’s like doing a mini TED Talk into the void and applause is in the form of likes and retweets. But a handful of these threads take off and one of the recent ones that went viral is by Twitter user succdevon.
She composed a long thread explaining what our milk tea orders say about our personalities and it’s accurate AF. The user claims to work at a boba milk tea place and has done enough research to warrant a comprehensive thread.
Take this with a grain of salt and just get a kick out of it—here is what your milk tea order says about your personality:
