The Burberry coat(s) that were bought by following the EXACT script of Pretty Woman. Like almost word for word. Yes, that's the one!

She didn't?! Been in Burberry many a time and the staff are so polite and accommodating to everyone who steps foot in there. One of those standards macs are at least £600. Could have picked up a coat for a lot less from lots of high street stores. I have a River Island wool coat that is going strong 10 years later, £60.

Burberry is an aspirational brand too. It's what The Poors would consider high end designer, but it's really basic and peddles most of their gear to such wannabes. 🔺 I deal with proper posh people on occasions, they don't do Burberry.

If it is a private joke between Jack and her dad, why is she putting it on social media for everyone to see and read? If she didn't want people to comment, then she shouldn't have posted it online. She could have sent her dad a private message, or an email. Then she wouldn't have had to be nasty to someone pointing out that her comment made no sense. Private jokes should be just that, private.
 
@waffle maker excuse you, it's because of the Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria she experiences due to her SEVERE adult ADHD which conveniently gives her free reign to be a complete tosser at every opportunity.

That photo of her so-called peaky blinder get-up is ridiculous, her fashion sense is abysmal. Never seen so many collars concentrated in one outfit. What even is that outer coat, it looks like a jacket potato skin.

May I have the recipe, please?

Maybe she was up taaahn to give Boris a ticking off, 'release us from lockdown, or I'll force you to eat mah slop'. Cheers Jack!

Going out out. I've had this coat for five years but never worn it until today. Two reasons; pull up a chair and get comfy... https://tattle.life/threads/19920/

Fuuuuuucking hell.

So offered a free £600 coat and turned it down so she could be hero Jack and buy two in the shop?! Oh what a bleep she is.

Those trench coats aren't warm either. They're a light spring coat.

Fare Share is fantastic, I have been involved in a project in my local community that gets foods from there, they get a lot of the Tesco extra special range because it obviously doesn't sell well. You pay £2 and can choose 5 items, one of them meat. I've had watermelons, huge expensive boxes of posh cereal and loads of dairy free stuff.

They also have an initiative where you pay a couple of pounds for a family meal box, kinda like Hello Fresh but just normal food. They give a recipe too, simple things like pasta bakes.
 
Imagine it though. The poor loves got the long covid and now this mystery rash.

When I was 21 I had rocescea on my face. The Dr wasn't my usual one told me to use e45. I did and it burned, so I went back and my own Dr was there and he said that was silly of the other Dr and gave me aqueous cream.

Moral of the story be careful of what tit you put on rashes because even something you think will work doesn't.
 
All the kids wore Burberry when I taught in Portsmouth years ago at a ‘challenging’ school. It was like an embarassing football thug look and I think the mums got it from catalogues with a weekly payment. It’s not a look favoured by groomed expats or the super rich... plenty on Instagram worn by drug dealers girlfriends and Sallie Axl.

Jack is a munchie, or at least has a munchie personality type. She uses her illnesses, either fabricated or greatly exaggerated, to avoid responsibility and deflect criticism. It’s what made me interested in her in the first place. I came to tattle for the celebrity secret gossip, I saw the fast moving threads on Jack and was curious as I’d heard of her and knew there was some controversy surrounding her but didn’t know the details.

I have someone in my life who is a munchie and they’re so similar to Jack. When I started to look into munchies because of this person I found accounts of others and they all follow the same pattern. Lies, attention seeking, avoiding being held to account, having to be the worst sufferer ever. I think the only reason she’s not gone full munchie Wellness Warrior (tm) is because she uses The Poverty as her main source of attention and deflection.

Her "poverty victim" narrative is the same psychology of Munchiehood: a victim-hero, damsel in distress complex. They feel that suffering makes them heroic, and the "damsel in distress" thing is that they want to be showered with what they believe is care, love, admiration and attention (actually people pitying their supposed suffering).

Ah but here lies the problem, NOTHING is off limits to our Jackie- not even her Pa.
And bonus material is if she can rag on some poor unassuming sod

I don't understand the rules of who gets cancelled vs who doesn't... Chris Brown punches Rhianna in the face. Still making records, still winning awards.

Mel Gibson says antisemtic things and his career is all but over.

In the rap world being violent and misogynistic is not only acceptable it is applauded. It's disgusting. And yes of course being anti semitic is awful, but is saying something worse than actually doing something physical?

If you look at the police report of what Chris Brown actually did, I would describe it as attempted murder.

I think those who don't get cancelled or who make a miraculous recovery from it, are those who suck up to those pulling the strings in the background.

She’ll be wearing North Face next, that’s replaced Burberry as Blackpool’s designer brand of choice (or knock off of choice is perhaps more accurate).

I thought it was a leather jacket from Burb - so even MORE expensive.
