Just think it’s a bit odd how Jack is mentioning the evil gossip site a lot more lately and drawing attention all of a sudden. My spidey senses are tingling…. And thankfully it isn’t from eating a load of parasite infested pineapple fish.

Last thread closed as I was typing but I've got my bingo card ready for tomorrow.

Spoiler: Rude - Sorry Mancbee

Tbh I think I typed bleep too much. It looks weird now.

Lads. I’m so far behind I’m in my own personal chaos. Trotters and goats legs are the future for me.

So being the posh Frau that I am - I have a magnolia in my front garden. Cast your minds back a few pages for the magnolia culinary rec?

oh yes. I didn’t have blue cheese or pears. So I ATE A PETAL with a semi melted babybel (light) and a slice of three week old Pink Lady. I did it for you mithering ninnies. I did it for you. It wasn’t good.

I would like to know how much money has been transparently raised by jack’s teemill site and which charity it is going to. Also why her company on a bootstrap LTD hasn’t yet filed accounts.

You sound surprised! Did you learn nothing from the previous thread title?

Personally as far as I’m concerned alarm bells should have rung for me when I emailed her right back at the beginning after the Sunday people story and nothing. Couldn’t even be bothered to respond. But despite this I bought a couple of her books and one for my mum but that’s the sum and total of any cash I’ve ever given to her. I absolutely hate the way she uses twitter and I was cringing at last weeks Liverpool tweets. Also. I completely understand why she wants her son to be anon but please stop calling him small boy. Also. I don’t care who her new love interest is. Big woo hoo. Who cares ? Like. I’ve been single a long time but if I started dating again I wouldn’t feel the need to announce it all over twitter. Who cares?

Jack’s backpack menagerie (the animals are DEAD!) made me think of the New Species scene in League of Gentlemen.

If I had a pig’s hoof for every thread title I’d had, I’d, I’d, well I’d need a big ol’ backpack to carry them all in, is all thank you kindly Silver and the nominations, it’s an offal big surprise. To Lorraine ➡

In the last thread, Jack spent a lot of money on a yomp around Croydon for meat and McPlants

She cooked a disgusting plate of reassembled McPlants with vegan special sauce

She told an improbable anecdote about small talk with their big car driving OH

She blamed her awful personality on trolls/Tories

She did/did not (delete as applicable) declare which charities will receive the remaining funds from her Teemill site

 

[trueblue222]

I also laughed much harder than I should have at her piling two McPlant burgers on top of one another and putting her special sauce on it and declaring that McDonald’s need to do a Big Mac mcplant. Give me actual peace. That is utterly grim. Particularly when she was yomping home with a goats leg. I also question whether she had covid. I’ve had it and believe me I was knocked off my feet with it for a fortnight and yes I understand that symptoms can vary but when I had it I didn’t have the energy to tweet. I wouldn’t have been tweeting me again with the ‘rona’. And finally. I completely agree that Louisa looks fabulous. Genuinely happy from the inside out. Unlike Jack.

@trueblue222 she got her eyebrows did last year when she lived in the east London aparthotel amd they looked a million times better. Then she just left them. Sorry but I’m old and I’m basic, eyebrows frame the face, there’s a reason why people have been shaping them for centuries.

ETA knew you must be a ScouseHouse Frau

Anyone got any Gaviscon?

 

[trueblue222]

What I actually hate the most is that decent people are sucked in by her. My closest offline pal follows her on twitter and we have never had a conversation about her. I just would not go there. She appeals to decent folk with a social conscience and she knows it. I’m one of these people and I was fooled by her once. Also. I remember at the beginning of lockdown people were telling her to apply for UC and it was like. No! Shudders! But it’s ok for millions of other people. She is a fraud and I can’t suffer her. Sorry if that is too strong but I can’t. And I saw the tweets where she was blaming people on the internet for her relapse. No. Just no. I also read the diva article and I was just cringing. She really needs to get off twitter and stay off. That is one girl with multiple issues and she knows it.

Im Scottish (as you might have gathered) Hence the reference to the Snp but I completely agree. Her eyebrows are awful. Like. When I was 16 and had no money and a pair of tweezers my eyebrows were better than hers.

I do support football btw but it’s not Liverpool, however. I was looking at the posts last weekend and I have to say. I’ve got loads of football tops. In fact I could probably buy a house with the merchandise I have. Not wanting to generalise but in Scotland it’s the done thing to go to games with tops on

However. I would never criticise any football fan who didn’t wear merch. Most of mine has been from presents. I just thought it was completely bonkers that she rocked up on twitter with a Liverpool top on giving it Im the top Liverpool fan ever when it’s not the case.

Don’t ask me why but I really want to visit Liverpool soon. I have no connection to the area but I went once years ago for the day when I was on Blackpool on holiday

one of the best football matches I ever watched was Chelsea v Arsenal. On the tv around 20 years ago when I was on holiday in Spain and unwell with food poisoning. It was real end to end stuff and I was amazed I liked it as I don’t tend to watch matches as a neutral

edited to add I do like Everton for a couple of reasons (even though they aren’t my first team)I used to work beside a footballer who played for them and I have an Everton top kicking around my flat somewhere.

Four McPlants Jack? Four?!

(That Peep Show episode with the Naan bread ref)

 

[trueblue222]

What actually annoys me the most is that she’s got a huge platform and it’s so unpleasant. I know who roadside mum is as well and I saw a tweet today saying that Martin Lewis and Jack and Roadside Mum are so fab. There are people out there at the sharp end volunteering day in day out and Martin doesn’t bother me but I wish the other two would just shut their Twitter accounts and go away. I have no time for grifting con artists and that is the very bottom line. Stop making cash out of other people’s misery. It’s vile.

FYI I think the creator of todays wordle is a ninny

 

[MaineCoonMama]

This is my favourite thread title EVER! Succinct, funny but also horrifying.

I'm glad I know she's a liar because the thought of her on public transport with that bag of grossness makes me boak. I have some strong tummy tablets if anyone needs them? Send Tunnock's to
1 MCM Road.

Four McPlants Jack? Four?!

(That Peep Show episode with the Naan bread ref)

If ever we get something naan-adjacent in our Gousto box I always wave them about as I’m unpacking it and quote this. My husband has never seen Peep Show but he just lets me get on with it. Never apologise complain, never explain.
