I had similar concerns but got a free sample and I actually (resentfully) love it. To keep this Jack related: I often get very sweaty whilst training in case one day I need to bench press the queen, and smol does a good job at removing the lingering presence of those sessions.

(I've never been paid or gifted by them!)

I use them too but mainly because I'm rubbish at remembering to buy detergent. I must have an adhd puppy brain!

I really think there is scope for a Frauen album with all the songs the smol pixie has inspired. Let's not promise to donate the proceeds to her though

Can I have my 'one pound fish' version on there? I promise I will play the spoons (so much choice!), sing it in a J1g nasally Dick van Dyke voice, and wear a pigskin cheeky blinders hat.
Edit to add: I've been 🦉🍾 at Camel's lip on and off all evening 🤣
 
Merail but the poetry style is relevant so CBA to spoiler

Saturday night

Going out
who's about
why rain
brings me pain
So cold
Me old
Why
I cry

She wants to make us angry. It's pity and amusement she can't cope with. Worth remembering when she gets to us. Laugh at her. Be wittier than she could ever be.

That won't take much, her gsoh is on a par with her fashion and interiors style

Apropos of nothing but does anyone else find it amusing that she’s been doing this ten years and she STILL has to introduce herself every time she speaks?
All the videos and clips of her that I’ve seen she starts with *NASAL* Hi, I’m Jack Monroe, you may know me from XYZ
It’s very Troy McClure!

Yes it was.. saw it as a kid and it's stayed with me ever since..not sure about the album tho

I don't remember the album now but I was probably about 12 and the story really intrigued me, saw the film years later, just remember it being very sad. Think true 'multiple personalities' is extremely rare but many people hugely compartmentalise due to trauma.
it was a subject that made for great noir films back in the day (old film frau here)

Thank you for your informative, funny and most importantly relevant 'smol' review.
Really hope you do get called to bench press the queen before Fack

I totally picture her doing this intro. "Hi I'm Jack Monroe, You may know me from my many disastrous presenter roles or quavering voiced public appearances"

Quavering voice! 🙌🏼 This is so her. The smarmy laugh smile she does really grinds on my nerves too. I’m not sure I’ve ever come across anyone who’s supposedly famous but yet has to justify their presence by reminding the audience of all their past glories!

I keep getting ads for a laundry product called 'smol' meant to be environmentally friendly, I think it might be a bit of greenwashing. Happy to be corrected but it's funny the name and how I automatically distrust it / mistrust, not sure which is the right word
Click to expand...
It is indeed a green laundry product. I am a long standing customer, and every time they email me now I have to double check I've not been 🔺

Looking forward to some trifle related chaos tomorrow when all the party guests start a revolution for what type of trifle they prefer.

Maybe she wanted to wish herself Happy Birthday 🧦.
Remember, she absolutely and undeniably got a V Day card - we saw the evidence. :D

And it very definitely wasn't an M&S card that got added to the Ocado order like what I did with the exact same card in the exact same way.
#terrible.

ETA. For Mrs ST obviously.. I'm not a complete duck trumpet🙄
