Jack Monroe #184 Jack Monroe's Big Book of Boak

[maytoseptember]

Jack is the Tom Hardy of the blogger world. The amount of different looks she's had is astounding, reinvented herself more than Madonna!!! You look at some pics of her and it's unbelievable it's the same person in all of them.

I was going to say the same thing, it’s mind blowing really. It isn’t just the different hair cuts and colours, it’s all the different aesthetics. She goes from butch to androgynous to femme, normie to zany. If there was ever any proof needed that Jack has a very fragile sense of self, it’s this.

 

[People-huv-tae-know]

I think her mug should say 'I give him fanny cakes' and his should say 'Rinsed bean meatballs'.

Imagine sharing a commune with Jack. You just know she'd insist on doing all the cooking too

“Grumpy Women Writers”. LJC, us faceless, bullying ninnies are better at respecting Jack’s gender identity than they are themselves.
(I don’t even mean that in a nasty way. It’s just that Jack tweeting things like that could make it even harder for an already misunderstood community).

Aww glad to be part of the tonic. Hope you're OK sorry for the Russell brands it makes my concern look fake but... Context

Going to use Russell Brands now as well. Cabal vernacular is growing

I said it in an earlier thread, but the ever changing back story and imagery reminds me of Zelig.

Is this tattoo a naked lady in a sexy embrace with a skeleton?

It looks like the skeleton is sinking it’s teeth into the woman’s shoulder. Also, where is her neck?

I just need to say, I know bowls have taken over, but that stupid 4 day recipe that serves 0 uses 800g of beans

I’ve you’re having something pickled or sour on a salad, you’d just have a few bits dotted here and there. Does anyone need 800g of beans? Make it make fucking sense!

Looks like it might have about 19 ribs altogether and I am NOT counting the teeth.

The comedy in this thread is off the charts.

800g of beans to serve 0. Let that sink in.

I’m dead. I’m deceased.

Reminds me of this classic product.

Perfect for the couple in your life with a joint Facebook account.

The foreword for Jack Monroe's Recovery Recipes by Jack Monroe:

They still wouldn't stop. Even though they knew that I was battling long-held demons, the internet bullies turned to mercilessly mocking my appearance, comparing me to pieces of crockery.

I took a deep breath, although inside I was howling like a shewolf in heat. This band of mithering ninnies, with their shadowy connections to Germany and Russia, had already destroyed my relationship and attempted to sabotage my flourishing career. I had even heard rumours that one of them, based in Manchester, had told Marcus Rashford not to work with me again, accusing me of attempting to murder him through unconventional soup ingredients.

I knew that this time, I couldn't let the trolls win.

I furiously cracked an egg into a cold frying pan, turned on the heat, and added a lick of lard and plenty of black pepper. As the egg cooked for precisely 45 seconds - the ideal time for a runny yolk and wobbly white, transluscent as the skin on an old man's hand - I told myself that I would be strong. I would turn this around.

It was not the first time I'd faced adversary. Back when I was a destitute single mum, my son once looked up at me from his bowl of Weetabix mashed with water and asked... (cont. pg 48)

I am grunking on lunch, sitting in my car and howling

Who wants to eat whole almonds like that on their brownies anyway? Flaked or even chopped yes, whole no.

it looks like a choking hazard imo but then the whole thing looks awful anyway

I’m dead. I’m deceased.

Like the skeleton on Jack's arm?

 

[PunkyMonkey]

I'm glad it serves zero because almost a kilo of beans is a lot even for this iron stomached vegan frau.

this reminds me of the kind of photo people put on their myspace back in the day

To be fair, even if you take away the four days for pickling, 50 minutes for a fucking salad is insane. It's chopping up a few things and putting them in a bowl.

I just cannot understand who her audience for these kind of things is, surely if she is making recipes for people without much money they are often people working really long hours for very little/looking after children etc, why would they want a 50 minute salad?! (especially as somehow all this time still results in a raw egg?!)

 

[Saint_clemmie]

The bowls are genius! what a treat to come home to after work.

I don't think i’ve ever seen a photo of Jack and not experienced dangerous levels of cringe.

 

[People-huv-tae-know]

The bowls are on par with the inspiration pics paired with Jack quotes.

Imagine the general savings they’ll make bc one bowl of slop they’ll all be dead

 

[Bombastic]

I was making poached egg for my lunch and I had to overdo them because I was scared they will end up raw like Jack's
