And it says she was in Tanzania? I thought that if this was true she would mention it more? Ive literally never heard her talk about working with Oxfam in Tanzania, but maybe Ive only been following the chaos for a short period of time.
There are/were some very old Tanzania posts on Jack's Instagram but I can't be arsed scrolling to see if they are still there.


Do we not think shes hinting at a new partner? household of 3?
She currently has a housemate.

Fuck me that book looks tedious though. I can just imagine it being full of wacky Reddit style humour like ‘what if you got attacked by a bacon narwhal?’
xkcd is brilliant - albeit for the science nerds amongst us

She's beenmysterious about it for a while - she claims to have a lodger who likes long walks and manual labor, but who doesn't seem to pay rent or need a bedroom or help around the house in any way. Except to looooove every meal Jack cooks for them.

Her content and cooper, bet they passed. Ooooft full mummy
“No more please Mummy, no more bread and jam baked greens, eggs and ham baked macaroni vomity stuff, Mummy”

Went down a storm= Jack taking a few tentative bites, binning the lot and phoning Deliveroo
I’m pretty sure “went down a storm” is a euphemism for the massive indigestion as it went through all its victims faster than gooseshit slides through a tin horn (as they say in these here parts).

Never mind one bed left in the house, if three actual people ate that monstrosity, I hope there are at least three toilets and a fuckton of bog roll in the shitty bungalow

EDIT not sure why I spoilered one swear but didn’t even enter my head to do the two others. #BeKind(to Geese), I guess?

Why does she always have to create a problem when there isn’t one? The Brits don’t have an eating with hands phobia, we’re the nation of the sandwich ffs. Our most popular fast food vendor is Greggs. Jack loves to invent problems that don’t exist just so she can position herself as an innovator, like when she tried to pretend that using ordinary rice to make risotto was an internet breaking act of iconoclasm.

She’s a really nasty piece of work who always has to throw shade at someone. What she says about her son here, in isolation this might be tolerable but she has form for it, like the constantly mocking and undermining of Louisa in her social media posts.

Here she is back in Leggy days when there’s no way in the world she’d dare do it to Leggy herself, “bless him, my silly son who tried to eat a taco with a knife and fork”.

You have a pattern of doing this Jack, and it doesn’t reflect well on you. In fact, makes you look like a pathetic bullying twat.

I got my ex the first one years ago and it wasn't quite that bad (but then again I do browse reddit) it's the xkcd comics bloke. Definitely better than a slop manual.

Here’s a much more fitting entrance for you dearest @Shawads I’m always pleased to see you pop up!


On topic: Jack is awful and cannot cook. Or sing. Or do poetry. Or play the piano. Or present. Or earn her own income. Or even talk properly without sounding like her adenoids are about to explode in a tsunami of snot these days.

Remember Jack's oh so quirky hobby of collecting shopping lists? That she was wildly passionate about but never mentioned it before or since?
A more dedicated person has put together an exhibition and book, and has a write up in guardian. Amazing what can be acheived by applying ones self and seeing a project through to completion. eta sorry this image is huge. no idea how to minimise. x

Not sure how I feel about them putting out the tip jar tbh.
They're spending a few minutes tweeting and poking fun, I appreciate that, tip jar rattling seems a bit grabby imo. I may be in the minority tho.
I agree but I think everyone does it nowadays, at least she is honest, says its for her and there's no manupulation
