Many people seem to be absolutely horrified at her “advice” but she’s taking the ostrich approach to it all, as per. Surprised she hasn’t deployed cattos to bury it yet.

No, that is what she spins on Twitter (and it is always Twitter)
She also spouted on Twitter that she wasn't entitled to furlough because she was late filing her tax return which just isn't true (obviously the bit about filing a late tax return is true because she still hasn't paid her taxes 2 years later, but the bit about not being able to claim furlough because of it isn't true x)
Cooking on a bootstrap (dot com) would totally be able to claim SEISS if it were entitled to it. But they weren't because they just earned too much money.
I know what I miss most about pre-broadband life. Obviously the existential art piece that was the dial-up internet sound but also that there wasn't a platform for wastrels like Jack. The worst she could've done was a Geocities site with an unstoppable obnoxious MIDI tune or created a bulletin board for her 20 sock accounts to talk to each other.
1970s Jack deffo shouldn’t be allowed to be in charge of the holiday or Xmas club cash
Jaxwell (maybe she’ll fall off a boat in the canaries too?)
How do you think she coped on bebo with only one daily love she couldn’t give herself?
Ah memories of bebo unlocked. I remember when my crush unexpectantly sent me a drawing and basically fainting
Well that's the only way I would be in her company for more than 1 second.
I’d had enough of my schooltime besties after about 2 days of staying at their house in the summer hols, I wouldn’t want one for a week and surely they didn’t stay handcuffed whilst asleep or showering?
So autistic
Judging by her her makeup, she's angling for a job on EastEnders. Perhaps kat Slater's long lost twin who was adopted by pat butcher before she married Frank!
Thread title nomination right there
I want them to bring back the workhouse just to send her to it to do some fecking work
SHE COULD COOK THE SLOP!!!
That's the problem, she thinks she's Oliver when she is actually Bumble.
Well now that’s just gruel! (sorry) (

Nah she’d find some niche internet community and declare herself queen of their message boards. Changing her avatar and profile text every five minutes to try and get attention and barging into threads to give her terrible advice. Early forums also always had people who treated it like their personal blog and had a band of minions who’d berate you if you told them to shut up.
Plus there was always Faceparty where you could hook up with dodgy emo lesbians. Those were the days.
Her entire origin story is Tuppence To Cross The Mersey a heartrending tall tale of a middle class family falling on hard times
ETA it’s twopence to cross..sounds even more fake

Speculation about Jack's early internet life is purely academic as we all know her family was too poor for the internet. They only had tin cans with string up until 1999. If she wanted to share something with her friends she had to draw it on a piece of paper and put it up on the adverts board in the corner shop.
Their "advice" for people who are trying to stop drinking reminds me of friends who definitely weren't alcoholics but loved to overindulge - aka the people who do Dry Januarys and the like. Jack's advice would work fine for that crowd, but you know our Jackie, they have to make things be the biggest and worst so decided to act like this was proper advice to give to people who are struggling with addiction.
