Not the ending we were hoping for, discarded next to the spoons and forks, but an Egyptian type wrapping ceremony (perhaps with bongos played?) gives me hope he has gone to the Afterlife. To Terry 💕

I hear sparrows were highly revered in ancient Egypt. He’ll have had the works for his procession into the afterlife. Bongos, pianos played with one hand, you name it.
Almost as much as cocks named Keith 😂

I hate that we know this. I can’t bear the oversharing.

Not so secret now, eh, having shared the info with her 288.9K followers, lol. Why? Why does every mad, whimsical, scampering (and often 'concocted') detail have to be shared? Nigella, Nigel and Jamie don't.

Muddy puddle, innit? Or the friend wot gave her an Emin. Or the other friend wot gave her the Strawberry Thief curtains. Or found in the Southend charity shops like her wheeled-home-leather-chair and her Viv Westwood (gawd bless her) dress

Coven! Use your forensic skills, it is so obvious that the yellow thing is Hubert Cumberdale from Salad Fingers!!

I said before she had something to do with salad fingers.

The only reason she tweets everything is because no offence to her but she is actually really very boring so, unless she's being all wacky and maverick. I don't think people would pay her much heed.

I suspect we'll have a lot of people arriving on Tattle and lurking, so how about we post some of our "favourite" Jack escapades?
One of mine:

She has frequently mentioned on social media that she has 'stalkers' and is concerned for her safety.

However, Jack has posted plenty of identifying information about her home, so much so that it's really easy to find her exact address. Honestly, really easy.
For the information of any lurkers reading who are unaware - it is against Tattle rules to post her address on Tattle, so we don't post the actual address on here.

Recently on Twitter she mentioned a particular brand of soap that she liked and within hours, a couple of bars of said soap appeared on her doorstep.

Now, if you had concerns for your safety, wouldn't you be somewhat perturbed by someone leaving this gift on your doorstep? It could just be a friend or a neighbour, but if you had 'stalkers', SURELY you would be freaked out by this?!

This is just one example of her many, many stories that do not add up.

I’m still convinced this never happened and they’re in fact, extras from a ‘£20’ shop.

Could anyone summarise why Jack Monroe is so disliked...?

I don't know much about her, other than seeing a few irritating tweets / TV appearances.

113 threads say summary could be a tad tricky, but suffice to say she is a gaslighting charlatan who rides on the coat tails of others, takes credit for the work of others and scams winter fuel payments from those who can least afford it. She begs for money by pretending to be poor whilst spending on high end designer goods then pretending they were a gift or she found them. She conned almost 70,000 pounds visa Kickstarter for a book and two years later people were still waiting. There is much much more. Some of which is too distressing to mention.
 
I may have laughed up both lungs with this one

Near constant lying about her entire life. Over dramatising things so that serious issues are turned into a joke. Centering herself in any issue she does talk about. Claiming to be a campaigner but doing no useful campaign work whatsoever. Starting nasty wee vendettas against various famous people she's jealous of. Starting pile ons against her followers, including one particularly despicable example where she set her followers on a woman who had just over a tenner to last her a fortnight. She's essentially a fraud.

One of the less egregious examples in The Big Book of Jack's Weird Behaviour, but I always laugh at how she posts "I'M BUSY AND IMPORTANT AND I'M GOING NOW BYE" tweets, then she's always still there and replying for ages afterwards.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - Jack saying she’s logging out Twitter is like me saying to Mr Lenny “and that’s the last thing I’m going to say on the matter”
 
Can I just add for any new readers that the cabal of sad hausfraus (that’s us) are a bit fed up with the “quality” of the recipes JM produces?
The cooking instructions- when carefully and gingerly parsed away from the ephemera of marauding verbosity - are not fit for purpose. Boil tinned lentils for 45mins? Now add herbs that were not on the ingredients list?
The potion sizes are tiny and don’t contain a reasonable amount of calories.
Poor hygiene practice - sniff old salad if it doesn’t smell it’s ok(botulism has no smell) re-use beetroot boiling water twice for boiling pasta , blend raw flour with cheese slices and milk. Her fingernails. Veg on a yellow chopping board...


For persons who may not have good cooking skills, there is a real chance they will waste food or worse, get ill from her “recipes”. The very people who can least afford to waste food.

Edit.You know me, trigger happy when posting

"Gingerly parsed away from the ephemera of marauding verbosity.."
Hahaha! Nice.
Genuinely laughed out loud.
 
I love how she makes out her new display was random bits stored away in the shed, hunted down over years from charity shops. Yet the brass ware in the new display still has the tags on (poor attention to detail) and the manic table picture shows the brand new box of portmerrion crockery just out of sight.....
