I remember
I started to change my mind when I read about the Kickstarter. Then I saw that she hasn't posted anything to the Patreon since 2020. I started to see trends - her promising things and not fulfilling them.
I have ADHD and I have a history of starting projects I never finish so I felt for her... but I'm always embarrassed and apologetic when that happens if I've promised anything to anyone. She gaslights people, lies, and takes people's money who are struggling themselves when she's had tens of thousands over the last few years. I should be so lucky to be so poor! Sorry for the rant
Haha yeah should have known it was buy one get 2 sleeves free at the parlour that day. Hope she disinfected that puddle muck off the tattoo needles.
F*****g bang on the money.
Sorry she hijacked your condition to make you feel sorry for her. But you’re proof, the facts speak for themselves!I remember

Can we all just agree at this point that the toothpaste guy doesn’t exist?
I find it fascinating how his story (the way she worded it) was that a long time ago he ate toothpaste, but apparently he’s in need now of food, yet she won’t let anyone else help him but her because she is a twit. Or he doesn’t exist, like the receipts.
In fact, I never seem to see stories under her comments like the ones she talks about. They all go in the mystical DM folder apparently for her to recycle as her own stories.

Yeah, eating a spoon of toothpaste would just make you vomit. Ditto nibbling stock cubes. Total nonsense.
Rice-Bag Accountant (blue squigg) still sticking by his sensible opinion. I hope he takes an interest in the cherry picked index if Jack actually does release something. I think he likes number facts. Hopefully tax facts too when that Glorious day comes.
The supermarkets racketeering and people dying comments are so irresponsible. This is what she does though - starts showing off terribly because she thinks she is now invincible. She will just get ruder and ruder until she says the wrong thing to the wrong person.
People who feel sorry for her are a lot nicer than me. I think she is just ghastly and manipulative. Her pretending she needs adults to tell her to eat and sleep, and being proud of that, is quite revolting at her age. Pity she didn't listen to these 'friends' when she was hell bent on choosing to let her child go hungry.
I still am quite bewildered at her inane thoughts on pricing being taken remotely seriously. It's like something out of Brass Eye.

The dumber part of this is that if you were going to lidl/aldi for a shop of any appreciable value - such as a weekly shop - you would probably still save money after the £4 bus fares if you're shopping smartly for bargain goods. You're not just paying £4 to spend the same there, you're going to be paying less. As long as your aldi vs asda shop is £4 or more cheaper, you're golden. Which, again, is fairly likely as they're virtually guaranteed to have their budget ranges in stock at all times even if asda doesn't stock the budget rice due to demand.
I'm BUSY tomorrow but kind of want to do that to her £20 shops and see what happens. (or, well, noting the prices while doing my own little shop.)
I'd like to apologise in advance for the otter comments. Please just focus on the biscuit related nostalgia.
Not sure about England but the Lidl in Northern Ireland is actually really good quality. It is cheaper than the other supermarkets and you can get some really good quality cheap items. If Jack actually wanted to help she could use some of the patreon (or Netflix) money and research the best bargains in each supermarket so that people are aware…. Because although she only has an Asda near her that won’t be the case for many squiggs. She could easily afford to visit other supermarkets in the name of research since she can afford to fill her house full of expensive furniture
If she posts a picture of the £20 slop shop, I will tomorrow visit my local Aldi (which is a two minute drive from my home) and buy the same items, forensically receipt them and show you all the difference plus receipt.
And then when I’m done, they’ll be off to the local foodbank.
I live in a North-East pit village, think Billy Elliott and you’re a few miles out, and the villages around me are regularly on tv as one of the most deprived areas of the country. Jack doesn’t have a clue.

Algorithm mistake.

Agreed with you and @BeautifulTrauma
He slides into DMs
Then she’s talking to him
enough to get him to open up
She’s got him help
She is helping him herself
Too many details there, including some which seem unlikely
I'm reposting this Jackmoment re Del Monte.

It speaks monumental volumes that previous employers/colleagues of Jack have neither liked nor supported any of her narc nightmare.
