Jack Monroe #183 Someone's fewmmin'

[Captainmouse]

Imagine opening a hotel fridge, looking for some nice refreshments, and finding a row of fucking Yakult? WTF?

BTW Jack, you have good grounds for a complaint here. These bottles in the bottom right have been opened. Unsanitary at the best of times, but extremely bad form in a pandemic! What is this hotel playing at, eh?

Unless mackie has put them in?

someone I know who is in manchester aa groups has tried to reply to her message , that is not taking replies.

Well, proves she is trying to switch attention from the latest cock-up
Edit - IMO.

It's always a half-size can of coke, too, and costs about 5€. Don't you miss hotels?

She'll be in some hipster aparthotel, but she definitely bought most, if not all, of that herself. It would be just like Jack to choose accommodation based on fridge brand.

I don't usually miss hotels, but after looking at Jack's choice of hotel I'm starting to crave a holiday

It must be a pretty spenny hotel judging by those drinks in the Smeg fridge

Just catching up. I’ve stayed in a lot of hotels and I have never seen a hotel fridge that size. It’s enormous!

The MR and TK stuff is going to be every month, and I suspect it will be mentioned in the media each and ever month. This will be a recurring issue for her.

Like the non-arrival of the beige patreon postcards?

 

[Malkiavelli]

she's filed on her Insta under ODAAT (one day at a time)

So it's rehab that Monroe is undergoing then...? Especially with the AA in Manchester thing, they often can only focus one identify at a time...right now, it seems to be 'recovery person'. The question, rehabbing from what? My guess - ADHD medication. (Just a guess, no evidence whatsoever your honour). And if that is the case, then it's most predictable and foreseeable conclusion to a self-made drama in the history of time. (Often think back to that post where they said that they've "found a quiet place" or something like that, and a mate retweeted all happy for them etc - that's an invented, life defining event there. Soooo, a rehab facility maybe?)

I'm working on a new thread early birds and hopefully will include a poll.

I've tried reading Jack's "poetry" in a John Cooper Clark voice rather than the adenoidal tremble

It actually makes it less terrible. I wonder if that was her goal? Edgy people's poet rather than teenage angst.

Although, JCC could read the phone book and I'd still love it

Thanks for that - I now have John Cooper Claaaaaark’s voice in my head now. In fact, I’m reading all posts with his voice in mind.

Sunflowers grow to 6 ft or more. 26 of them grown from seed would be a sight. And wasn't she in an exclusive apartment at the time, they would fill the bloody place.

I have to admit, I quite like sunflower bit I made a motivational poster with, the rest of that poem though, woah. They've got creepy obsessive vibes, stalkerish almost. Very strange poetry, and I don't think it's truthful to her real emotions, she's playing angsty emo (look at the profile pic)

Granted, we've all done this nonsense, yet, these poems are both hilarious and strange. Not based on anything more than garnering attention.

LJC Lenny, you’ve made my day!!

The polar bears are having enough issues without putting Jack near them! Maybe just pop her in a spaceship and let her fly around not bothering anyone

I’m surprised too. She’ll probably share some long winded tweet/article about it later

I was just about to say, think of the poor polar bears

 

[Pocahontas]

I am really sorry to be Mumsnet here, but can you please point me to this article? I thought I'd adequately grunka'd but I've missed this and looking at the GQ website there's nought much that seems relevant to Jack.

Here you go! (She gets a brief mention)

I wasn’t expecting Alanis Morrisette jack. What a treat.
I’m wondering is it a Marriott Hotel?
And why would she need to stay in a fake name??

I’ve just realised- she’s on jury duty, isn’t she??

I think she is “under “ witness protection

 

[Lanie]

They need to update the link on their website - they really are hopeless!

Wonder why they changed the instagram handle.

Brexit? Who knows perhaps they had to go incognito.

 

[moosesauna]

The drinks don't intrigue me like the parsley.

it's probably something she bought for a recipe later, if she's cooking at the hotel!

 

[Skyfall]

Set alight with plughole hair kindling.

Now where is that book??
I was truly looking forward to it.
It’s gunna be awful.

 

[Captainmouse]

If she is not asking for herself then she is doing it for engagement and to make herself look good especially after the shark attack earlier.

ETA that was meant to be shark attack but shark seems apt.

Ffs SNARK attack. I am now officially a victim of

sorry

I have no idea what is going on?! Does Jack live in a parallel universe where there’s no pandemic?

re kickyball David Platt I’ve met him. He was really nice in a cheesey, dad joking way, giving off strong used car salesman vibes.

For her night out with all the Corrie legends, come on, Terry Duckworth has to be invited. I once saw him (or his alter ego, Nigel Pivarro) in a bar. He looked like he was well into a long session. Quite loud and a bit sweaty, but that was how we partied back in the day #middleaged #menopausal

My mum used to fancy Terry duckworth, in my memory he's quite, sweaty?
