Jack Monroe #600 If I don’t have a sieve, where am I getting a carabiner from?

[MancBee]

Fanny has just said she's got an unsightly rim.

Fanny's cooking isn't any better than Jack's. It looks awful.

 

[HotesTilaire]

Did Jack claim to have read or enjoyed a bunch of Stephen King or is that just my imagination?

I can't remember if he was included in her invented list of all the books she's apparently read

I think she was mad for the Body Horror genre of films, but books wise she’s bypassed King and is all about John Grisham

Yeah, coincidentally just around the time she started lovebombing Cllr Matt Dent

Though, Fanny's cooking isn't any better than Jack's.

We need Dame Edna Everage to show them how it is done. Now there was a COOK!

Who can forget her "Phallic Phancies" and "pineapple and sausage surprise"?

 

[Carefree]

That loodio collage and the varying shades of red/purple. Christ.

 

[Toffee finger]

I had not seen this before! How the duck did people look at this and think “yes that’s a chef”

The best episode is her cooking the Christmas goose and saying something along the lines of “think of somebody you really dislike but are too well bred to say what you actually think so you take it out on the goose by stabbing it all over”

I was going to make a joke about thinking of Jack when I cook but then she’ll start tweeting (blueskying?) about needing her stab vest back

 

[Five hundred dogs]

I think she mentioned King, it might not have anything to do with Matt not of the forearms though. King is a hugely prolific and huge selling author, it’s not exactly unusual for someone to have a couple of his books on their shelves or for someone like Jack to have also read his books. This is no shade at King or Grisham, but they’re very much the base line writers of their genres. I feel like at least half of all adults have probably read one of their books.

 

[ForgettyBetty]

Considering that the books are in between "Tort Law" and "Sword and Scales" I'm going to say neither - probably some legal textbooks with a similar font.
Or he could just be a lunatic who arranges books randomly.

 

[ahkrin]

Are there not the three volumes of lord of the rings on that shelf? I think random book lunatic. And didn't guest say she had read all of king as well as all of christie this year or something like that?

Apparently King would write most of a book in record time, working all night thanks to his good friend ❄
Id rather read King or Grisham than bloody Richard Osman’s twee twaddle twattery tome.

eta - reference. King wrote Cujo in a weekend and has no memory of it

Stephen King and His Addiction Issues - Which Rehab

Many are taking the chance to catch up on reading during the Covd-19 lockdown. However, not many will realise that some of their best loved authors are subject to the same demons as the rest of us. Stephen King is a name synonymous with terror. He has forged a reputation as a master storyteller...

That's fair. I see ulterior motives everywhere with Jack so I honestly wouldn't be surprised if she was glomming onto the wee hobbit man

Well would explain The Stand.

I mean, she is. She might have accepted he isn’t a “mark” for her housing/marriage trap, but I’d say she’s glommed on to him generally

 

[Clovis]

I am painstakingly on a heckin' BIG grunk as I've been BUSY. Chapeau to the person who said guest is looking like Olive from On The Buses. The resemblance is indeed frightening

 

[MooBelle]

Ewww what why? How much? Why is she posting a picture of her bathroom? What is going on? Why is it full of tripods?

Oh mate, that was the Loodio. She used her upstairs bathroom (she has two bathrooms in the bungamansion) as a place to do live response interviews from. The canal triangled the squatty potty step thingy after she was showing off on SM.

Her housing/marriage trap hasn't gone very well historically has it.

 

[WoolyMammoth]

And she's now going in hard with mentions of this crime book she's writing. My bet is she's gonna attempt to crowdfund it.

The problem is, any crowd funder she does for a book or a subscription now, will be populated by people hoping she doesn't follow through with it. Rather than those hoping she does but understanding she hasn't because reasons "awhh never mind Jack you take care of yourself...".

In fairness, Anna Karen was a nice looking lady, who was made to look like Olive by as make up artist.
Jack's appearance is all her own work 🏔 ❄.

It’s fairly toothless. Ironically.
