🔺I am waiting for the Asda person to arrive with my groceries, so no, this sad Hausfrau really has nothing better to do.

LJC doesn’t do Asda, she’s a strictly Waitrose cheese counter gal, this looks like a self purchase. Do we think JM would be able to hide her greedy goblin glee if she had Louisa back? No swiftly deleted tweets in the night showing us mithering ninnies??

(Could this be our next poll please?)

A video showing some sort of hack for hair but you can't actually see the head? Well done Jack, another successful social media post.

I mean, fair play, she's proved it was £4.99, but who the duck buys something like that and then leaves the sticker on? #stickerrage. I am ignoring the fact she can't be arsed giving it a quick wipe to keep it clean.

I'm still grunka-ing (grunking?) but the leggings as a hair towel tip is a tit version of the Curly Girl Method, where you use a t shirt to dry your hair. The idea is that cotton is better for textured/curly hair than your standard towel. You're meant to gently scrunch the hair with a t shirt, not rub it, as rubbing can cause frizz and damage textured hair. I can't bring myself to watch her stupid cartoon video because she always looks like Shane MacGowan when she has that daft filter on - is she scrunching or rubbing?

Either way, the cotton t shirt trick is something POC have been doing for years, and the Curly Girl Method has come under a lot of criticism for what people perceive as white women repackaging hair care techniques and terminology from the black community. So to see her taking this idea as a #JackShack is questionable at best.

AND JACK DOESNT EVEN HAVE CURLY HAIR SO THERE'S LITERALLY NO BENEFIT. Use a towel you basic b.

I\m confused. How is this frugal living? Is she implying that she doesn't own towels? Why doesn't she simply knit one out of her old hair?

This is the kind of thing I would have done as a student when I hadn't done any laundry for weeks. Must be too busy with those 20 hour work days.

As a natural hair curly girl, I concur. 100%.

Is it frugal living to own eleventy billion chairs, earn huge amounts of cash from product tie ins that you fail to advert to your followers (but moaning about having to do the 9 minute live that you a. Postpone because reasons b. Are late for c. Are unprepared for)? Or perhaps frugal living is fraudulently applying for a child's pocket money debit card. Mmm so many useful tips to glean

Well ex-squeeze you but when she was sporting her Charles II/Captain Hook wig she said her natural hair was just like it.

The lies, the lies etc
