Is that a Japanese proverb, like "The nail that stands out gets
hammered down"?

Nothing that erudite, I'm afraid. I "borrowed" it from www.despair.com.

Awesome. I thought I recognized it, though it also seems inspired by
the proverb about the nail.

Too many good ones at despair.com to pick a favorite.

Hi! Steve and the Gang haha! Peace! Well, just a note, what I have
noticed is that if you are buying an Assam, get a vendor from Assam, if
its chinese, get a chinese tea vendor from China or that particular
place in China. This way it will be cheaper and you will get good
quality teas. Yes, you have to hunt online but the result will be good.
What do you say?
