Oh my god, there’s performative frugality, and there’s pretending you hoard the oil you get with tinned fish one tablespoon at a time.

I'm not vegan or even vegetarian although I do eat a good few meat free meals through the month. I did complain to LM about their collab with this dick though, specifically about her pushing of the arsehole & toenail sausages & shit lumps of cooking bacon, even on stuff like SBs breakfast porridge that she was doing with the £20 shops. I eat meat, but it isnt low welfare meat like she was pushing .

I was anorexic in my 20s and still, occasionally, get triggered byi it now. I don’t set alarms to eat, either I eat or I don't . AND if anorexic and going through that particular trauma, you are NOT going to remind yourself to eat because you don’t actually WANT to. Unless youve had a significant amount of therapy you are not going to obey an eating alarm. She is the bigggest, most vile, stupid twat that EVER walked on this earth. Why cant she just shut the fuck up? She is not a therapist, she is not an expert.

I think on one of the versions she mentioned, SB was conceived the one and only time ahem “it” happened between her and his dad so she may well know the exact date from that. No judgement if it’s true, but I know she’s told several versions so I’m not sure.

This makes me angry. Her son is a human being who will almost certainly NOT want to know about his conception. Imagine if the kids at school hear about this...that couid be more traumatising than the moonshine mash.

We had a Police officer do a talk at the miniest Moo's school. He was on the Social media team and what he told us was eye opening.
Basically when you join Twitter/FB/IG etc there's a tonne of terms and conditions that no bugger ever reads but we all tick the box to agree. You've just signed pretty much all your rights away.
The example he used was 'Why is Zuckerman a Billionaire when Facebook is free?' You put anything on their sites and they can do whatever they want with your info and pictures.

Mugs, Rugs and Prescription Drugs - she has scissors and isn't afraid to use them. Has the 'Wardrobe of a Departed Ex-Fiancée Rug' been ruled out?


Seriously, all I can think looking at that rug monstrosity is how the fuck are you hoovering that or in any way keeping it clean? It must be full of dust, shit and filth. A bit like her nails then

Jack: What ho Twitter followers! As you all know I am very frugal indeed. You all could learn a thing or two from my frugal tips!

Also Jack: I bought this butter dish. I know there's something I'm supposed to put it in it but I can't for the life of me think what. Anyone?

Only last night I used some oil from a jar of sundried tomatoes to fry off some onion, but the filtering nonsense makes me want to die, to be honest.

Why would you mix old fish oil with other old oil? And the cheap sausage runoff good god. A bottle of oil is not expensive if you just buy normal shit. Like a pound. Butter is not expensive, despite Jack’s obsession with lard. Why risk botulism to play at frugality?!

What the fuck is the matter with her fawning fans?!

I mean, there's keeping eg duck fat for roast potatoes and stuff.

then there's hoarding old fishy oil

Also surely the best thing to do with fat "pouring" out of lamb is to immediately make a gravy or sauce with it? Rather than messing about with congealed, heavily lamb-flavoured fat? Lamb has a very strong flavour and I wouldn't want that fatty muttony taste corrupting my stir fry the next day

She says that her first blog post was essentially a suicide note but she decided to live after she got up in the morning to find she'd gone viral and had hundreds of messages to reply to people. Apparently she replied to everyone because 'I'm autistic and I find it incredibly rude not to reply to people'. Well I'm autistic and I find it incredibly rude to reply snarkily to squiggles and incite pile-ons on Twitter
