Slopbot has really excelled with this one absolutely hooting!Spam and clam! Slopbot trying to make the recipes rhyme nowView attachment 335417
Found this book on amazon whilst looking at gift ideas and the recipes, looks like Jack is trying to get all in their niche. The recipes can't be anywhere as bad as hers though.View attachment 335418
at least with that there are individual identifiable ingredients Unlike slop o matic
The butter thing really boils my piss. I grew up in a working class household, never destitute but always having to buy cheap. We never had butter, only marge, and it was...fine? We made do. The fact she was so aghast at having to downgrade from butter shows yet again that she was never truly in poverty, just an entitled middle class twit who was down on her luck for a few months.
This is truely disturbing, glad I saw it this morning. Would have given me nightmares
Exactly this.
Too many
too short
Honestly. Shes just a proper loser innit.
If it's a 'Particular' bench, go to THAT bench. Why are you looking at the others?
Ah, that'll be the military around the edges.
(I actually had to Google yomping. As I'm sure she did before tweeting)
No, that's not the crappy bungalow
I remember Blue Band marg, it's what we had in my house growing up.
Hee Hee anyone remember the bench from Extras Christmas special?
We had Flora marg. We weren't too poor we couldn't afford butter, I think my mum thought it was better for you at the time? I'll ask her later how she could deprive me so!
Butter was actually one of our food luxurys as a kid, my mum scraped on other things to ensure we had proper butter as she hated margarine.
We didn't get alot of fancy food growing up but it was always homemade and nutritious as possible, we ate alot of meat, potato and veg dinners.
Same. I was convinced for years I hated butter but had a major plot twist in my early 20s when I realised it was just margarine I couldn't stand the taste of. Expect more details to be revealed in my upcoming blog post, 'Turnips'.
Burberry scarf?
In the old days (1970s) marg was the thing, butter was on the wain. We had blue band or flora. Both of which treated like Axle grease.
Now we eat butter spread, the lidl one is nice and reasonably priced.

A bit behind but about the ADHD statements, I am currently in the process of collecting evidence for a referral to the ADHD clinic for an assessment.
I have been told if I do not have enough evidence to show how ADHD symptoms have affected my life then the psychiatrist won’t be able to accept my referral. Thankfully I have lots of old school reports but I have also been advised to get statements from my parents and partner. It ain’t fun to read your partner’s writing on how tit you are at stuff but I appreciate him doing it. With my parents it’s like blood from a stone. I don’t particularly enjoy reminding them of my teenage duck ups either.
I can’t imagine how I would get my loved ones to do this for me without telling them what it was for!!!
I feel slightly indulgent writing about myself here. I do find it hard to read Jack going on about ADHD. I don’t doubt she has it, but I do resent the way she talks about it and uses it as an excuse. Doesn’t exactly fill me with hope!
