All Jack Jack Jack. Nobody in the world matters to Jack except Jack. Selfish, insecure little child that she is, she’s so ridiculous thinking people only dislike her if they’re on Tattle.
Honestly, she needs a shedload of therapy.
Well she does have 3 shrinks on speed dial.
"some people like to separate their work and home"
Er... She's set up a fake kitchen in her dining room. I would imagine that's created far more upheaval and chaos than just, yknow, cooking in your already established working kitchen
Even the people who stand up for her have lost all normality when it comes to Jack's life.
Whenever she talks about abuse and harrassment, her followers think she's getting it from Katie Hopkins and Richard Littlejohn types...because, to be fair, they DID harrass her.
Unfortunately, it means that people don't realise there are other reasons one might not be totally enamoured of La Monroe.

The latest event in the JM victimhood olympics. Claim harassment and abuse.
Her rudeness is jarring and so unnecessary. For her to assume that everyone who dares to ask her a question like that is a member of the cabal is so shortsighted. Plus - people reading these exchanges should not congratulate her for being ‘gutsy’ - they should be disappointed in her attitude.
AND - when she inevitably uses ASD / ADHD as an excuse for being so unpleasant - that is the PITS. She doesn’t do herself or anyone else with these issues ANY favours.

@Nonnymouse are you going back next week to ask your question? Are you going to ask them why you couldn't go live?
No I imagine they think poor Jack and assume it is via DMs etc I doubt they see half her abrupt/ rude replies
I don’t think this place counts as abuse and harassment personally as it only discusses what she chooses to put into the public domain
I'm in the middle of a steaming message to Hellmann's - I fear I won't be asked back lol
I’m pretty sure I have autism to a mild degree. Highly intelligent, memorise things after seeing them once (especially number plates), massively introverted, can only wear certain clothes because of the feel. There’s loads of the traits that I see online that I think, yep that’s me.
Unlike Jack, who has probably done the same sort of checking online as I have, I don’t have nearly 300k followers who I profess to every time I’m rude that it’s because I have autism because a) I don’t know for certain and b) if I’m being rude it’s because I’m a head, not because of autism. Jack uses it as an excuse and to people that are actually suffering every day and diagnosed with this, it must be so jarring. It’s like every other illness people have.
Let’s take the arthritis as an example. If I saw my uncle sat there unable to move, someone who has seen Jack online might think he’s putting it on because she can jump about on sofa’s and prance about in her pyjamas. Does she see how destructive her lies are about illnesses to people who actually suffer with them and how her behaviour may look to other people? It’s disgusting.
The fact it was her publicist and Hellman’s employees means it was construed because they were worried about any BLM comments on a random live interaction. Own your tit Jack, you said it you could’ve stayed out of it but nope, you just had to get involved.

I would be disgusted and I’ve convinced myself the reason you weren’t asked on was because of your Tattle connection and they blamed the technology. Which somehow works for everyone else out there except Jack

Not to mention moving fridges and sideboards around. She simply has no concept that her behaviour does a lot of harm.
You know BT, a child is exactly what Jack reminds me of. A foot-stamping, tantrum-throwing, attention-seeking child who hasn't reached the developmental stage where they understand that they're not the centre of the universe. Her playground threats, her proud "I did a chaos!", her constant finger-pointing instead of accepting responsibility. It's all so childlike.
I just started watching last night's IG 'show' and had to stop at four minutes. Excruciating. She even repeated her lie about tipping off Hellman's about #BOT, when thanks to @Nonnymouse, we know that they knew before her! And I just kept thinking this:
Ok, I watched a bit more. There's so much she could have asked Chetna to showcase her (Chetna's) skills, knowledge, life story, future plans etc. Instead, all we got was how Chetna makes *Jack* feel about her own (lack of) ability. My nerves, my awkwardness, my lack of preparedness. Me, me, me, me, me. For the love of god and for the hundredth time: IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT YOU!!
PS Chetna is so lovely and kindly and gorgeous. Big crush here.

In my own opinion she should always try and be polite even to the trolls. I know it's easier said than done but she's selling her brand as well as others and in the world of consumerism the customer is always right. I worked in a cafe and some of the people that came in there were downright pricks,but I wasn't allowed to tell them to f off I had to be polite and direct them to ways to which I could answer their issue complaint etc. She needs to learn to hold her tongue as people won't want to view/ buy something when the person selling it is shouting rude or sarky comments.
Are we supposed to believe arthritic little ol' Jack put up that wallpaper (the wood effect design)?
Can you imagine Jack working in customer service
Re. us going 'off-topic' - the thing is that Jack puts herself at the helm of so many issues (poverty, mental health, autism, alcoholism, BLackLivesMatter, etc etc) and they can all open up discussions on here which are, actually, on-topic, because we bring in our own experiences to highlight how so much of what she says doesn't add up. And that's before the recipes!
Someone asked for a veggie chilli recipe earlier so I'd just like to plug this again, it's honestly THE BEST https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/burnt-aubergine-veggie-chilli

I love the sound of that burnt aubergine chilli but we’ve an induction hub here. I really miss my old gas job for this kind of thing
Just imagine her fire brigade days...Can you imagine Jack working in customer service
"Your house is on fire? Check your privilege! At least you can afford a house! I have to rent because of online abuse, and my crap garden has given me such severe hayfever I can barely work, and if I DO ever venture outside I just get random men sleazing all over me...hello? Hello? Are you still there? Oh sorry about that, I'm autistic you know."
Jack I think you meant to say sorry!
