So what happened during thread #11?
More of the same from GOB. Thanks to @House of Tea for the new, more accurate acronym, Grasping Old Biddy. Jo herself has admitted her handle is a misnomer as she is no longer middle-aged.

Jo Good @middleagedminx continues:
grabbin’ more gifts, freebies, comps, parcels “that just come in the post” and advertising telling her community about it
shopping'. Justifies flashing off her very high-end purchases at this time of austerity as being “aspirational", claims it's good value as cost-per-wear
usin’ her BBC radio show to promote “my social media”, “my vlog”, always shadily pushing listeners towards her online ads, all for more revenue. She did an online hosting gig for a company, going on to name check them on air
givin’ lip service to sustainability but runs her bath with continuous hot water running through the overflow, during a hosepipe ban. But she’s not worried as it’s all paid for by the communal water and heating in her building
bein’ culturally insensitive, yet again calling the late indigenous Australian singer Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu "an aborigine"
bein' non-ASA compliant with her many ads. Eg: Does a paid-for promotion for an online designer clothing company, admits this verbally but does not mark the vlog title to disclose this. She thinks hiding it in the description box counts - it doesn’t. Shady.
drivin’ illegally. Doing a speed awareness course costing £92 after breaking the limit on Park Lane, claims the limit is too hard to stick to at 12:15pm and was unaware of the speed limit change, 2 years after it was implemented across the City of Westminster
displayin’ her cruel side. Eg reminiscing about being driven around Birmingham in a Rolls, laughing while looking at the “poor people” at the Bullring
complainin’ about being exhausted due to working at the BBC 15 hours per week. Doesn’t acknowledge that her other outings - usually for reasons of freebies, attention seeking, or socialising - could be curbed if she wanted some rest, or time for yoga.
tellin’ us how unconventional she is. But institutionalised Jo Good continues to make bitter and cowardly comments on-air about how she can't play the music she wants, that she can't give her opinion, that she has to follow rules
usin’ “her” caretaker Sandra as vlog fodder, for dog sitting and to do tedious domestic tasks
usin’ her friends. Went to a yoga retreat in Majorca, but only told Anna Webb shortly beforehand that she would be looking after Myrtle. Anna had plans to travel in the UK but obligingly took Myrtle with her
losin’ cast members from the vlog. No sign of George. No longer mentions George Burton as producing, nor has he been appearing on the vlog. Tattlers suspect a falling-out
readin’ out emails from listeners complimenting her, her fashion, her vlogs
doin’ sad face. Filmed herself in her car as soon as she heard of the Queen’s death, while giving vlog editing instructions to Filipe, instead of rushing straight in to see her mother when the sad news broke
makin’ it all about her: eg. When filming what people are wearing in the street talks about herself and turns the camera to herself
bangin’ on about: being an old hippy, The Stones, “rich people”, “poor people”, working in a newsroom, being an actress, being tired
modellin’ twirly 70s style on her communal roof top and corridors
lettin’ her dog piss on the communal roof terrace when she’s too lazy to take it outside
tryin’ to grow her subs number, over 50K now after a collab with vlogger Pretty Over Fifty
thinkin’ she’s the Queen of Marylebone. She’s booked again this year to host the local Christmas evening, 3 to 8pm 10th November
mispronouncin’ and misnamin’: Jerry Sadowitz became Jerry Levovitch. The Queen, “Our Majesty”. Green-feel tower. Vernicular railway. The play “Dear Evan Hanson” called simply “Evanson”. Gets certain producers’ names wrong continuously, and rudely jokes about it, using her age as an excuse
makin’ pass-agg digs about Vanessa Feltz. Did not send good wishes to V on air about her leaving BBC Radio London after decades at the station, as other colleagues did
not knowin’ much: Didn’t know myrtle is a plant, didn’t know what the 1922 committee when it had been in the news for weeks
not trainin’ Myrtle properly, seems annoyed by the dog, but occasionally gives performative displays of affection on the vlog, usually straight after Tattle has flagged it
playin’ poor, lamenting that she “won’t inherit” and is “sour grapes” about those who do. Says she controls all of her mother’s finances. Her mother and her brother still live in the Sussex family home
referrin’ to New York as her spiritual home, despite having spent very little time there, mainly in Wholefoods
doxxin’ herself, showing her apartment building, detailing her movements, showing her car, her numberplate (and showing a colleague’s numberplate)
takin’ time off her 3-hour long BBC show when she wants to rest before doing another paid gig the next day
fangirlin’/harrassin’: She has Ben Mendelsohn’s number in her phone so called him when she was on air, and promptly hung up when he answered
bein’ a hypocrite: does an ad for luxury retirement flats in the wrong end of Kensington, which look just like the large luxury blocks that have been built in Marylebone, which she calls monstrosities, lived in only by "rich people". After filming at the site she was advertising, she complained she’d spent the day in “one of the most polluted parts of London”.
dissin’ her paymasters: Of course the BBC as usual, but also saying chain stores like Next are spoiling the once groovy King’s Road, despite having done promotions for Next beauty and fashion
insultin’ other nationalities: Americans have rough voices like hers because they live in air-conditioning
tryin’ to turn Dave the Cabbie from the vlog into a “thing” - she got him on the radio but he’s geeky and boring and hard to understand. How will he take to being dropped?
lyin’: On the radio show she said that has the tendency to embellish and exaggerate but then straight-up says that she often lies, admitting that she lies so often she ends up believing herself. Such a red flag for being a narc but she seemed to think it was hilarious
