Jack Monroe #234 A Grifty Kind of Self-Love

[LyraBalaqua]

I’d forgotten how much I loved this thread!

We’re in tonight , I have wine , Prosecco , gin and a tit load of bung in the oven party food , cheese, bread and crackers.

Make room on the sofa, I’m back in!

Twitter. Responder has been on there since Oct ‘21 but has low followers/following numbers.

Did you check out their bio? C’mon, fess up - who was it?? #gossipwebsites

I'm sorry but what robber is taking a box of newspaper clippings and a big rusty old pan I'm screaming at how ridiculous this whole story is! Starting the year as she means to go on, full of absolute Happy New Year

 

[Walkdengirl]

I did it. I did it for the pizza oven.

We're having pizza oven pizzas for tea tonight, but I bought mine with my own money that I did that thing called work to get

Hopefully nobody current. It breaks the rules and crosses over into actual trolling.

Thread Title Nom: Jack, please stop wasting perfectly good cheese & making up robberies

TBF, there would be more there if it was!

Where was the housemate in all of this?

Honestly think the housemate's f*cked off already. Fair do's, he was there for a good couple of weeks, more than most could take of Jack's company.

Instead of worrying about bad behaviour in past lives, she should focus on her dreadful behaviour in this one. The consequences are only going to mount up.

Unpublished trampled recipes makes me think she's fucked up another book deadline. Excuses excuses.

Why would a burglar want some rusty pans and crappy recipes? How are they going to flog that? Why would it benefit them at all to do it.

Makes no sense...unless she wants some new pans gifted....

 

[Marmalade Atkins]

The recipes and press cuttings were not stolen - they were tipped out of boxes and trampled on.

What’s that then? Is it like a Patreon? I don’t understand.

Well my NYE has been ruined. I was going to have a final fling with some bread and Camembert before going low carb. The bastards at Tesco have substituted the Camembert for Brie! I’m guessing their pickers have the ‘cheese is cheese’ mentality too.

I think that person had a falling out at some point directly with Jack… can’t remember the details. They say they work for a foodbank so I imagine they would be annoyed

Last mention of press cuttings:

I'm just sitting here imagining the burglars getting more and more pissed off that Jack's website was down until they had enough and were like THAT'S IT GUYS, WE GOTTA GET THOSE RECIPES SOMEHOW.

 

[Mitzymooface]

I’m in the didn’t happen camp too - Le Creuset pans weigh a ton - who’s going to lug those off?
Can we report her for harassment?

 

[Saint_clemmie]

Very odd there has been no kitten pictures as they get good engagement. Much as the "deploy Cooper" tactic annoys me, I like seeing him as he is a gorgeous cat.

I’m starting to feel even more uneasy about the kitten.

No doubt they were horrified to find that all the recipes and press cuttings were already ruined due to being kept in a garage by the bleeping sea side. It’s hard enough to keep your sheets feeling dry INSIDE your house when you live near the sea (which I used to. Even 10 mins away the air is damp AF)

The bio says they lurk on gossip websites, so it’s not a rule breaking member.

 

[Lumpyspaceprincess]

You need a Parmo, chicken, bechamel and very orange cheese

Parmo….. strangely I’ve never fancied one.

Would explain all the "look what you're missing" selfies since then.
