Jack Monroe #437 C U Next Wednesday

[jenny2603]

So we're still waiting for the remaining 23 reasons why Jack is completely honest guvnor.
I can just imagine her sitting down with her list of stinging zingers to put us twitter right and painstakingly going through them.
'right yes I'll definitely tweet that about me owning a toaster...ah no that one is actually true. Well this one saying my black eye was faked. Mm. OK. I know, the one about me saying I'd got a new kitten but was only looking after it...... ah duck it'.

I want her to deny shitting in bags to torment Iqbal.

The troll thread is the most personally disappointing of all the things Jack has promised but not delivered. duck the granola*, I want 50 more tweets of Jack taking weird-angle selfies to disprove claims that Cooper is full Maine Coon.

* sorry @zetta buttons

 

[Yer_wha?!]

Should have stuck to sizzlin sour cream pringles like Jack did...

Spoiler: At home Botox- not pretty!

 

[Feck]

Hold on, what's the date? Perhaps she's planning on treating us to a twelve days of Christmas style countdown. How exciting! Five engagement rings

Dear @hooplifehero, I wonder if, when you have time, could you turn your attention to a rewriting of the Emily Bronte classic "Mithering Shite"

I think there is much scope for clawing and general tantrums.

It's meee, jackeeee

Oooh, swiping this for my new book: Thrifty Warming, 100 Tips to not be coldy, ouchie and melancholy at winter.

You will have to keep your hair in the same style until publication.

Luckily for you, in 2013 Jack took time out of her busy schedule of prosititution, stealing food to survive, getting and leaving a full time trainee reporter job with her local newspaper, covering the G8 summit for Oxfam, getting a book deal with a £25k advance, getting a weekly Guardian Column, a Fortnum’s award, a Sainsbury’s ad campaign and a whirlwind romance with a policewoman fiancée/ex-policewoman fiancée to complete it already, with a cutesy twee pic.

For the most part, it involves slippers, the simultaneous wearing and not washing of tights, leggings and jeans while just hanging them up “to air”, eating warm food and making a tent out of your bedclothes. You’re all most welcome for the timely reminder of BRRRRR Jack’s big windowed wooden floored tips so if so inclined, you can commence these groundbreaking/hygienic practices in your own homes this winter.

My tips for keeping warm in winter: from a veteran of freezing houses, wooden floors and big windows.

I’ve had a lot of posts and questions from people recently asking about keeping warm in the winter, and having just dug out my annual (what I call my) ‘survival kit’, I thought I&…

Frauen , please help me out. Last night Jack Monroe began a 24 tweet thread, but, as is fully understandable, she couldn't post all the tweets because her phone died and her son was ill, and Lord knows how complicated it is to send a tweet these days. Anyway, one tweet in the thread was successfully posted and she said she would post the rest this morning. It's really strange though, and I'm sure completely out of character, but I can't find the remaining 23 tweets on twitter. It's really odd because the thread was supposed to debunk all the accusations against Jack that have been circulating. Including, most notably, fraud. I'm disappointed, as I was looking forward to seeing Jack disprove these claims.

Go well x

I think her twitter LEFT!

As a doctor in paediatric A&E who has just finished a shocker of a shift please don’t accuse us of “fobbing off” people if we make an educated diagnosis of a condition that’s not scarlet fever. Of course I’m not saying doctors can’t make mistakes (esp when overstretched)—the missed diagnoses in the news can keep me awake at night. And I agree parents know their children best so absolutely should be an advocate for them if they feel they are not getting the right care. But I would hope most if not all of us docs don’t just deny antibiotics for the fun of it but because there are also serious concerns with overprescribing them. It’s a difficult balance to navigate at the moment. Anyway now that’s off my chest I do hope for speedy recoveries for SB and all the rest!

Spoiler: Medical advice for worried ninnies

Massive respect, doc, am mere ambo but it's pretty relentless across the board right now.

I was actually going to post about this, having read all of the concerns on these threads this evening, and suggest that people just don't wait if they're genuinely worried about the salient symptoms; get kid to GP or UCC with concise history of presentation, medications given and any measurements like fevers logged.

Is that advice you'd consider appropriate to keep them out of your A&E?

In addition to prevention of course but I think that goes without saying after Covid!

Cos arthritis goes away in the cold amirite?

Yep. Cold makes arthritis much better. That's why so many old folks flock to cold places like Arizona and Florida.

I have arthritis in my elbow due to a bad break and I can predict rain three days before it happens. My elbow never lies, unlike Jack and her snowy bunions.
No bunion hate, I have one but I don't post it on Social Media.

Changes in pressure--when a weather front is moving in--does affect osteoarthritis. But a warm house with a humidifier running because her son is sick shouldn't be a problem for our Jack. Unless she doesn't have arthritis and a crumply back, shoulder, neck, teeth and didn't read the fine print about changes in weather...

 

[Valiofthedolls]

Tbh, that's probably for the best. No one wants a Jack cake.

Dearest jenny numbers, Old Harold’s parents have just hit the like button on your post so many times they both now have RSI.

 

[jenny2603]

She's really just a punchline now. I cannot wait to see the almighty kicking Grifty Kitchen is going to get.

 

[Griftymcgriftface]

No one post the pics but was it dec 2020 when she did the bare hobbit feet in the snow to show her arthritis for some random reason?

Aw. Hello little one.

 

[That Forensic Man]

Is there any way of seeing her likes without being logged in? Clicking the likes tab doesn't work for me, but I'm not sure if I need to spend some time dicking around with my browser setting, or if that's just the way it is for logged-out users.

You have to be logged in but can see them here tender one x

I'm *almost* tempted to buy it, but I've seen it hawked for £18.99- for another pound and a penny, I could feed myself, a random labourer and active teen for a whole week

@Sideboard Bob I hope you don’t mind, but I’ve changed my avi to this little chap for the festive season.

Much pov. So sad

Send Christmas cashos

Jack would be so much warmer wearing/sleeping in one of her many figs. Who needs a bobble hat!

 

[Salted Caramel]

I'm pretty new to Tattle and don't know who this Jack Monroe is, but having spent the last few days reading these threads I just wanted to say that you lot are bloody HILARIOUS. I've snorted whilst reading on several occasions.

Andy Lynes has said he's going to buy a copy and review it, seeing as no one seems to want to give him a review copy. I cannot wait to read it, as for buying the book I SHAN'T be going further than doing look inside on Amazon and perhaps downloading the free book for sneering purposes.

Hang on, so she "wear the tights and the leggings for a few days... hang[ing] them up to air overnight to freshen them up", and yet "In the evenings, I keep the leggings and long sleeved top on under my pyjamas". Which is it, Jack? Which is it? Am I supposed to wear the leggings until they walk themselves to the laundry basket? When do I air them, as obviously due to Pov I only have one pair. What happens during the time the leggings are in the wash? Does Jack want me to literally FREEZE TO DEATH and thus STOP BREATHING? (Obviously you'll be able to tell I've stopped breathing as you won't see my breath in the cold air. Another handy time-saver, cheers Jack!)

Mind you, I've already wasted away to nothing waiting for her flipping porridge recipe...
