Silver Linings

She won’t sleep, won’t work on her speeches etc. Why would she when she can do her nearly crying voice, talk about the poverty and quote figures that make no sense and the people she’s talking to will be none the wiser as they don’t know how much anything costs anyway. https://giphy.com/yJu2jIQZgPubm

Maybe it's because I haven't read jacks thread in months, but this is absolutely hilarious

Long term she's not going to win building her house on a pack of lies.

Might even brave times radio tomorrow especially to hear the caller's after her spiel, stig wasn't very good on LBC and didn't last long but I'd file him under "people you shouldn't fancy"

I think I’m going to actually cry. Please don’t let Big Nev do it, please.

'Long known sad fact' and 'not suitable for my show though, nor what we do' is giving me liffffffe.

That's because Martin actually offers practical help to people, he would have no use for a rent-a-gob hustling for cutlery money.

I also can't stop laughing, idk why, I think I'm slightly hysterical. NURSE!
(It was the Mary Poppins avatar which did it for me, I've not been the same since, the whole thing is so outrageously WEIRD).

That is just it Poca. I'm not that surprised or shocked by Jack. She is just being the same needy, lying, pompous gobshite she always is (albeit x 10).
It's the bluetickers lapping up her Economics for Dummies that is utterly baffling and frustrating.
As for Hugh Grant, sorry 'H', words fail.

(And that convulsive migraines is utter bollocks. As another severe migraine frau there is no fucking way she would be tweeting so merrily if she had had a migraine with warning aura. And no way she would not have mentioned this before today. More teams of specialists examining her though Aye right. She should've used this opportunity to say she has Botox for the migraines (she probably will now).

I’m missing valuable Jennifer Aniston viewing time, damn it Jack?! Why does she have to ruin everything good by tweeting THAT at 11pm on Wednesday?!

Asda Smart Price Spaghetti is 20p for 500g today.
Asda boil in the bag rice is 54p for 500g, 1kgcosts £1.18
Baked beans are 32p per can but 4 cans for £1
Peanut butter is £1
Farm stores apples are 72p
She is right about the current prices of curry sauce and mushrooms. Asda used to do a jar of value curry sauce but discontinued it years ago so it wouldn't have been that price a year ago, I've got no idea what the price of mushrooms was a few months ago either.

My own shopping basket has risen 7% since July (I put July's basked into a new order). It is a mix of cheap and branded products

M and S dine in for two used to include wine or soft drinks but now contains just food. I used to buy it and save the £6.50 wine for taking to bookclub. If you calculate the inflation without the wine it is 40%.

Charlie Bighams really meals have always been extortionate. (I had the chicken tikka masala on a yellow sticker once and it was amazing).

You're not outside the bubble, Jack. You just spent £100 on cutlery and have talked about going out for meals in your comments from a couple of days ago It sounds like she is playing poverty again, how long before she is doing the £20 shops again?

The cost of living rise is terrifying but Jack's stats are all wrong, she talks about someone doing proper journalism but it's not her that's doing it.

Loving Martin Lewis’s sick burn.

It’s not Jack’s fault her price comparisons aren’t as extensive as she presents, Martin, she can’t DRIVE.

I’ve been lurking here since probably the Edinburgh days and I can’t believe that what brings me (temporarily) out of lurkerdom is the convulsing migraine bullshit. I have epilepsy. I don’t get to brush it off as “flailing limbs”. Chinny reckon did it happen to her. Dickhead.

Again not choosing her, she just makes me angry! Ahhh! Maybe this tea should be chamomile?!
