So she was drinking whiskey heavily for a decade, which would be... 2011 to 2021? So where does that leave the not drinking during the Poverty (or, depending on which article you read, the drinking Sainsbury's pisswater lager over Christmas one year?)

I know someone who lives in a small village and the town was rocked by some woman demanding a local rooster minding it's own business on a farm be destroyed because her daughter was terrified of it.
Omg, what's the matter with some people? I hope everyone ignored her and the Terror Rooster was okay. Also, I initially read your sentence as 'some woman demanding a local rooster' and thought the woman was just very insistent about her desire for a rooster.

Wow thanks, I love that shark building. Have you seen Australia's big things? Also a great source of inspiration. I like how the wiki article is officially titled 'Australia's big things' because it's so hard to know how to refer to them.

Don't me. I put a life sized cardboard cut out of my sister in it at night. To scare people on their way home from the pub . To dissuade skip jumpers.

Oh local Facebook rose up for Team Terror Rooster. It got what Jack might term quite spicy.

Maybe Carol is Borbs secret lover and exacting her revenge for the awful stalking her love has received.
I can't wait for book of grievances to be released in 2025 and the acknowledgements section is just "**** YOU JENNY NUMBERS"

I love that we've decided Borabora is a former teacher of Jack's who completely forgot she existed, you could say she's "not aware of Jack's work"

WHY DOES SHE NEVER CONTENT WARN THIS SHIT?

Sorry, excuse the caps, but I'm sick to the back teeth (no pun intended) of her wantonly chucking suicide into any random tweet like it's a fucking punctuation mark.
Sorry I hadn’t put a TW on that, it didn’t clock. Will report post and hope a mod can x

ETA - was in time, apols once again that was bad especially this time of night

I'd really like to say that this isn't true. But there are some bloody awful, entitled, intolerant people out there.

No hen, you're fine, it's Jack who's the bloody menace.

I feel like we're primed here for her to be grotesque because, well, she always is. It just skewers my pumble that she doesn't bloody think that it's not an adjective to be chucked about willy-nilly.

So you agree, you were selling your kids toys and spending the money on whiskey instead of food or shoes that fit him?
WHILST LIVING ON THE STREETS.

"Mum, can we go indoors?"

"No, I have spent all the rent money on whisky and none of my friends, family, local community, police or homelessness services have noticed that I am homeless and drunk".

Why does she make up shit like this? It serves no purpose. Perhaps she has ‘work’ she wants to get out of in the morning
