Can someone explain to me what this "tea" thing is? I obviously missed the catalyst and am very out of touch with the youths, as an old man of 23 years.
“Tea” or “the Tea” is basically uh, something hot and you don’t want it but you want to know it. Essentially it’s gossip or in this case a burn, because tea is usually hot.
In addition to spitting facts, I also interpret it as, "I am watching someone get rightfully roasted, and here I am over here just enjoying both my hot beverage and the spectacle of this fool getting owned."
Bonus points for imagining it as you giving side-eye while sipping from the mug you're holding with both hands.
