duck off Peter Pan. The latest ‘look’ makes more sense now.Attachments
I feel like I need to defend mug jack. In my house I have various mugs I got as a child, one with a little face, mr blobby, various cartoons growing up, the royal wedding which just makes me laugh, and loads of random ones I have been given as presents over the years. When I moved in with my partner a few years back I made his parents tea in various mismatched mugs.
the next time they came round she had bought me a plain white mug set.
so solidarity with mug jack as she isn’t hurting anyone at least.

Muh-slop-oly?
But what is the thing that looks like some sort of animal penis within the yellow stuff....
I need brain bleach, and I’m glad dear heart bee of manc is not here to suffer these indignities.
My default setting is minimalist/have you just moved in/are you about to move out
Urgh collecting things
Urgh flooring which cannot be effectively cleaned on the reg
Urgh piles and piles of tit nobody needs, will look great with your new zero waste bandwaggoning

...and this is why I was happy to give you up to Silver. We would have never worked.
Don’t worry I am so fascinated by that rug I have to keep going back and studying it.
Where did it come from? Why? When does it stop?
I wonder if it could be handmade from a passed loved ones clothing. A labour of love with sentimental value. Well in my head that’s how I’m justifying it’s existence. Of course if that were the case Jack would have slipped it in to conversation before now.
So many questions. I’m gonna have to go back for another look
Yes that does seem mean spirited.
I have a Shrek mug I got when I was 14 - still terrifies me when I go into the kitchen for a late-night cuppa....

I used to collect snow globes. My precious things.
(I wonder if Jack does too.)
I also like them, but the brother and sister on gogglebox have her beaten by far, their collection is amazing!
All these feel very tacky to me.
Must be my snobbiness against working class, LGBTQ, tattooed people.

aren't those cookbooks the generic ones you get in 10+ languages at every gift shop?
Yes, when does it stop? Is out in the street tripping people up? How big is this thing?Don’t worry I am so fascinated by that rug I have to keep going back and studying it.

Also I'm going to suggest that Jack couldn't have made it. She only managed about six plain stitch squares for the massive snuggly blanket. That rug has been made by someone else. A vengeful ex? Her agent? The team at DKL? Walliams? That Man? Vegans?
Legend has it that she sews a fresh square onto the quilt for every person/group she offends....
I'm with you 100%. While I love having a good look around Liberty (pre-pandemic times, how I yearn for thee) and love eccentric homeware, it has to be styled nicely and with some kind of vision. If not it just looks a bit random? Pandora Sykes' home (https://www.houseandgarden.co.uk/gallery/pandora-sykes-london-house) is beautiful. I think that's what Jack wishes her crappy bungalow looked like
