All the knee chat

(Thanks all for spoilering, I know I didn’t have to read it but I was bored of Jacks sandwich chat)

75p/500gr tit bacon 🤭😥😥
I get that people buy this and I’m really not judging if that is all you can afford but personally I’d rather go without than eat it. In truth, I wouldn’t give it to my dog. remember that time Jack said you can sometimes get lucky and have bits of artisan reared meat in there. How the duck would one know?
This is how I feel. I’d live on SP beans and spaghetti etc! Not the chewed up hole of a pig!

@Shawads I thought I was the only person to have made 100s & 1000s sandwiches! I would sometimes switch it up to pure sugar sandwiches, or even add golden syrup. How I didn’t end up with diabetes by 12, I’ll never know! 😖 If only my mum had offered me bacteria laden, soggy, snout and germy salad sandwiches instead.
Snout and germy! Ooh golden syrup sandwiches (oh god I have gone #fulljack)
There is nothing like the taste of them, again on white bread. I actually have syrup cos of pancake Day but I feel weird even using it nowadays, I don't have the best of dental health but the thought of eating syrup now makes them feel claggy.
Really fancy it tho ...
Yeah used to just do plain sugar sarnies, wonder why Americans joke about the state of British teeth?

I know we covered this before but I'm still not clear on the difference between regular bacon and 'cooking bacon'.
It's the weirdest thing. I have never heard anyone talk about it before, and I shop in povo shops. I've watched That Man try to make food look appealing to the peasants and I have never heard him use that term and I have lived among Them. Hell I have even been one AND I grew up in the seventies, so even if I hadn't been poor I'd still have been reared on povo food (liver and bacon anyone? 😭, I remember when Walls Vienetta was invented and EVERYONE bar none thought it was posh food, I swear down.)
And salad smashed to smithereens or whatever she said just reminds of my days of watching slugs poo out green stuff.
Seventies kids didn't have much to do really, I couldn't ride a chopper (too poor) and I was always scared of the porno mags found in the alleys and bushes so all there was left to do was study slugs
Sorry probably should have spoilered.

Jack is trying to bore us to death. It's the only explanation for any of this. I think I'm going to draw a face on a cardboard box and pretend that's Jack instead because I could make it have adventures and stuff "that time a cat sat in me", "what it was like in the kitchen" and the thrilling "journey to the blue bin".

Because they've seen people praising Jack's recipes, so they assume we all thrive on slop since we've all lost our teeth and can no longer chew?
Evolution 😭 that haunted bird app turning us into gurning freaks🐦

In the end it's all sandwiches.



Anyhoo I wonder if because she's bored a d often alone she imagines she's living on the set of Emmerdale or something, you know it's all quiet and peaceful.... Until oops you have fallen down the stairs and done a chaos on the day Whitney finds out Bradley slept with his sister fiance and youre late for your fifth wedding to the same person because you keep finding out their dodgy as duck.
And little boy Sugden has let all the sheep out of their pen because he was dared to by someone from the Dingle clan.

What about her BIG NEWS that will literally make us seethe in rage? (Even more so than cake glitter!)

Honestly though, if she rocks up next on one of those mobility scooters, I will seethe.
Cake glitter was the big news you mithering ninnie

Staircases? In a bungalow? (Read in old chief vernacular

to be fair to the Old Chief, had Jack been wearing a skirt rather than traaaazers , the gusts of freezing winds that blow through the drafty hellscape bungalow may have caught her haunted Victorian underskirt and acted as a maverick parachute , softly gently depositing the smol pixie safely at the base of the death trap staircase

Oh God! What if it wasn't a fall? What if Evil Landlady and the boys found out about the gold trifle and went tonto? What if Jack isn't sending those Tweets? This is the drama I've been waiting for. Jack's been kidnapped!

Mini grunk as i have been out at a job interview this morning (Fingers crossed please Fraus, I am perilously close to murdering my current boss)

Listen, I am the princess of sparkletown and even I think the gold trifle is a bit frigging much!!!! The "specials" will be shitting glitter for a fortnight.

If she just popped her knee back into place, I will lick an eyeball. Absolute utter codswallop!!!!!!

Scrolling Twitter I came across this from Harry who often appears on C4. The replies were in a similar vein until this one. Another entry for the Valuable Brew Index?
