Smolrobot was just furthering her comment about "I don't like mushy peas, but I don't go to the shop at 4am and start complain about them, I just ignore them". I didn't think it alluded to slopbot at all.

I think this too. I also think that tweebot guy will fire up a Tattle account and start posting here once the scales fall off. She only gives him the time of day because he's so arse licking and sent her free stuff. She'll prob stop responding once something better comes along. Don't think she's ever given him another retweet after the original one that gained him a good amount of new followers. He's still hoping for another, poor sod.

Hope he comes here and helps create new ideas for slopbots!

Seriously. I first ate veggie bacon in the early nineties. Where do these people live?

Cripes, so glad I’m on the side of the viggles. These people are dense! Do they eat dust?

Just catching up on the rest of this evening’s activities. More of the same I see with bonus slop. I actually find her less annoying when she’s this whiney and snarky as it’s obvious she’s lost the argument. Some sound viggle input as we’ve come to expect...and she had absolutely nothing in response!

I can’t see how Jack or any lawyer would want to sue for ANYTHING relating to the kitten. Tattlers, the viggles and others all want that tit aired.

But, Small Robots are boring and twee and not even bleeping robots. Slopbot is an electronic musical artist and psychic based on goddamn algorithms like, well robots.

The smol robots are lame and cutesy and shite, not to mention utterly pointless. Whoever it was who suggested Robot Wars between them and the mighty Slop Bot - yes! I would like to see Slop Bot rip their stupid heads off.

Bots, a clunky summary 🤖
There is a twitter account called “small robots” where an illustrator draws these cutesy whimsical characters. He sells them as pictures. Anyhoo, late last year Mackie was #gifted a picture of a “sponsorbot” so basically got a drawing of an imaginary character which they claim helps their sobriety. The canal felt that attending AA meetings would be more effective but what would we know 🤷🏼‍♀️ Since then Mackie and the small bots interact occasionally on twitter.
It may or may not have been after this (it was early Dec 2020(cba to reverse grunk) that dear heart @traumatised sideboard gifted the bullying ninnies with Slopbot, the robot hero we all need. I think it came about when we were saying you could just get a robot to give out random ingredients and it would be more useful than whatever slop Jack invents.
In the early days Slopbot would misfire and give out reasonable ingredients which made sense, so I think traumatised started to programme in phrases and ingredients Jack mentioned the most. Then came to partnership with Mel Donte, which was fruitiful. Monsieur Slopbot with his fancy ass highbrow stuff, Psychic Slobot and eventually the Pet Slop Bot with the new electroslop sound, the long awaited onion chopping song and Onion Police.
In the time in between, I think of the food and drink thread, there was more robot chat where it was declared proper robots don’t have round heads.
It’s quite layered for an in joke, really

A dear frau (I think @traumatised sideboard ) created Slopbot , a humorous robot-based website where you can press a button and generate Jack-style recipes. Currently, these are all Mel Donte recipes, in honour of her partnership with Del Monte. You can also ask a psychic slopbot questions to get predictions.

Meanwhile, Jack has been interacting with the twitter account of Smol Robots. I think they just create images of little robots or something.
 
Slopbot recipes really deserve more attention

You can get that fake bacon, and chicken from the same brand, in Asda.

Please stay the duck away from the #actuallyautistic community, jack.

The guy she retweeted is a bit of an idiot. He can make some good points but was one of the few people who joined in on that bandwagon of putting every disorder you have ever had in his Twitter bio.

He also rattles his tip jar (something to do with donating the price of a coffee) constantly despite being a teacher so earning more than most autistic people.

Wow, what a Valentine’s Day chaos- 10/10.

@HotesTilaire the Middle Eastern way is to serve hummus with everything but I’ve personally never seen it with meat on, it’s more like on the table in its own dish. When we go camping in the desert we’ll often be gifted something off the local campers BBQ (lamb or goat, usually) and they have a whole spread of Arabic breads, dates olives and humus too. Bedouin traditions are good.

Fake meat and meat substitutes are often tasty but don’t taste the same. When the kids were Small they weren’t vegetarian so we cooked more meat and would almost always have a meat and vegetarian version of the same thing- bolognaise, sausgaes, bacon, shepherds pie, chilli. Mr Waffle would often be, ‘oh yes this is exactly like meat’ but if you eat the same thing side by side it never is.

I was #actuallyvegetarian for 15 years or so and I liked Morningstar Vegetarian Bacon. Would be in the early 1990s in a very sleepy place, what bollocks about people who are pretending to never have heard of it!

You need a pork licence to sell pork in shops hotels and restaurants here. Only places aimed at expats/ tourists tend to bother as it’s $$$. I can confirm that almost all chicken sausages and beef bacon is not worth it m8.

That dinner tonight, what is'smashed broccoli'? Is that just another adjective to make things sounds more complicated? Why does it need smashing before serving?

She's probably over boiled it so it broke down. Easy to do with frozen broccoli, but slop is her favourite texture anyway, so whether it was deliberate or not is another matter!

Can't sleep so I read half of The House piece and scrolled past the rest.

What a heap of wordy, tortured, manipulative bullshit. I hope for her son's sake that it is all lies. It's a complete misrepresentation of her life in any case.

What was interesting was the comments section, where a Jackolyte responds to a reasonable though negative comment by telling the commenter they are "a waste of oxygen"
