[Orphan_Black]

Toot toot new thread amid a chaos.

Well done @Geetbo and @heretoreaditall2019 for our new thread title, you win subscriptions to the Daily Mail, erm, congrats!

The Daily Mail printed an article on Jack and AM, chaos ensuing.

Spoiler: Article link

Row between campaigner Jack Monroe and detractors flares up

The food writer, 34, from Southend, is the subject of a new blog, by an anonymous NHS worker, who claims Monroe has distorted her experiences of poverty - which Monroe denies.

Why can’t comment?
Jack’s a bleep.

I think they might be a bit overwhelmed just now.

I think they might be a bit overwhelmed just now.

They don’t want to break the internet

Jack did a patreon response being passive aggressive about processing a refund. She managed to turn it around and accuse her victim of bullying.

She's been honking and wailing down the blower to her probono lawyer - school boy error, DM, should've published it tomorrow don't you know?!

 

[SeeleyBooth]

Do you think they contacted Ralf Little for a comment?

Probably bewildered by all the SH1TTER comments.

I think they might be a bit overwhelmed just now.

Like more overwhelmed than when Louise Thompson posts for the millionth time about the mystery that happened a year ago or when Cara Delawhat loses her tit outside her friend’s house in LA or when Holly cries on TM?

I think not.

One thing I find really annoying, and I wouldn't even call them 'Jack Stans', is people defending her and saying "I haven't been following this but..." or "I don't know the full details but...". Why not take a moment to familiarise yourself with WHY so many people are mad about this situation instead of defending someone you don't have the 'full details' on? Bit of a random tangent but it's just annoying

Probably bewildered by all the SH1TTER comments.

I might break my no commenting on the Daily Mail policy and say #justice4iqbal #WARNED

 

[zetta buttons]

In other news, I’m learning lots by repeatedly refreshing the mail online twitter feed to get the comments.

Like that Emily person is seeing the Pete person who used to date a Jenner:Karshadian. Who knew?

Well, Well, Well (not the type of hole version)

Now is the time for Iqbal’s return, all angry-faced, pointing out the flat where the dreaded deeds occurred. Full page spread.

I’d read it

As would I. Especially if it was accompanied by a photo of Iqbal holding up a turdbag with a compo face.

 

[Bugger13]

I want a quote from Borbora

 

[jenny2603]

As would I. Especially if it was accompanied by a photo of Iqbal holding up a turdbag with a compo face.

With a note explaining that this is a reenactment of a Jack turd and not the real thing.

Jack did a patreon response being passive aggressive about processing a refund. She managed to turn it around and accuse her victim of bullying.

It's easy to lose something like this in the pre-chaos excitement. Jack's response was a master class in how to make someone feel bad for asking to be refunded for goods not provided. Jack's laziness and greed prompted the ex-patron to ask for what they're entitled to yet she pulled the victim card and probably smirked whilst typing.
Anyway, I'm ready for a chaos, I rarely see them in real time. Someone prod me if I crash out, ok?
