Jack Monroe #162 She slightly undercooked her pasta and lost her slot

[MarthaFarkus]

no one has harassed you Jack, so duck right off.

I'm editing to clarify that when someone claims something you should believe them until proven otherwise but when it comes to Jack, she's chatted so much bullshit over the years that it's difficult to believe her and that's sad. There is no evidence of harassment and if she's talking about us then this isn't harassment either so she needs to receipt this harassment or shut the duck up quite frankly.

Backtracking here but has there been any mention as to whether JM’s being investigated re her Go Henry fraud or fibs?

It’s been said numerous times on this and other threads, but if you live your life in the public eye and use public social media platforms, then of course people are going to react to your content. It’s only when the reactions are negative or critical that types like Jack or Sali Hughes seem to have a problem with it; they love the fawning praise though.

This is real life and people are allowed to be critical. I bloody hate that women are told to constantly ‘be nice’ and not have an opinion on issues we disagree with. It’s such bullshit!
And as for the sustained campaign of bullying and harassment? witch please! * Rolls eyes skywards.*

Didn't she try this tit at the start of last year too? When she was all like 'I'm going to find my voice / conquer my fears / build up my confidence / take a shot at TV'. It's so cyclical.

 

[Lanie]

Yeaaaahhh, Jack doesn't do those anymore.
SHE LEFT.
#awkward

You mean she was tit left?!

 

[Vanelope]

Brilliant as ever @Pocahontas.

Does she genuinely believe she lost her slot due to undercooked pasta? No Jack it's because you are a terrible presenter, honestly one of the worst I've ever seen. Nervous, unprepared, unable to cook and talk at same time, puts the viewer (and presenters) on edge, cannot read an autocue to save your life and just generally awful. The fact she got any TV work at all just screams privilege.

I was so uncomfortable watching her - and she kept turning around - hardly good tv

Get to duck with your bullying and harassment Jack. Firstly it's not, second(ly) why can't you turn it around and use it to your advantage?

In my 20s I was the first female to work in the manufacturing dept of an electronics company. I copped a lot of snide remarks and sexism from the older blokes, considered quitting, then I sucked it up and worked extra hard to prove my worth. It's sad that we still have to do this, however! I ended up becoming a team leader and gained so much knowledge and skills plus earned the respect of most of the old guys. Stop shouting and do something about it ya bleeping prune.

Don't you know she's printing out page after page of Tattle threads, and storing them neatly in ring binders for our glorious show down in court?!

Eavesdroppers never hear anything good about themselves and all that...
How the duck can you claim harassment when you have to actually seek out your supposed harassers?

 

[Lanie]

The issue is have is someone saying you're not good at something is not harassment is an honest opinion, crikey loads of celebs get criticized for plenty she has even joined in a pile on on the like of piers and Williams. It's normal. They live their life in public, people are going to comment.

THAT MAN has had a hell of a lot of criticism, from cultural appropriation recipes to bankrupting his restaurants to what he names his kids. He doesn't bleat on about the negativity, he addresses his mistakes, and gets on with it. (And he can cook!)

 

[Vanelope]

She’s incredibly confident behind a screen - posting on Twitter, taking photos and putting the curated ones out - publishing recipes that do not work. Hacks that are fire hazards.

But put her in front of people and she can’t cope. On tv or probably in real life.
All front

Of course I know, there was a time when she never shut the duck up about it and yet here we are still patiently waiting for our court date

 

[SweetTransvestite]

But she can't even keep her own story straight!! So nope, can't even tell her poverty story competently either!!

Re-telling of The Poverty(TM) must be a job in itself.
Keep track of what you've said, to whom you've said it, where you said it, who the intended audience is etc.
Now, it gets complicated because based on the above you have to decide who you are that particular day, what to wear, how to present yourself and which particular disadvantaged strata you wish to misappropriate.
Then, when editing povertypotatoporn insert a divisive on-trend narrative to centre yourself nicely.
If you have any issues formulating a suitable response there is always SM, in particular Twitter which will direct you to the more 'popular' topics where if feeling particularly lazy you can plagurise the opinions of other 'blue ticked nobheads'.

You're just stirring you naughty fox, you just want to get your court outfit on!

Or as my grandmother would say, all mouth no traaaazzers.

And this is all after she’d had some tv presenter training!

Look at the guy who is currently a guest chef on This Morning! His food looks amazing but he also makes me feel weird because he is so hot but probably more than 10 years younger than me. Can you imagine him serving raw pasta and telling Eamonn to stop stressing him out? I think not

He is proper hot. His food always looks delish too. I'm going to try the lentil part of the meal he cooked today.
