I feel like Grifty Nifty Tips were written if everyone in poverty were also aliens who had never lived in society before, or alternatively, experiencing severe memory loss on how to be a human and this book was your only guide.

Still skim-reading and read this as 'Grifty Nips', which actually kinda works.

I still need to catch up on the latest chaos, but I was browsing indeed and saw an advert for a Fire Service Control Room operator, and the job requirements are:

“You will hold a 4 GCSE’s (or equivalent) at grades 9-4 / A to C including English Language and have good standards of communication”

Now I know she claims to have 4.5 GCSEs but other than RE I can’t see any mention of the rest, but we can assume they’re good grades because no matter what family connections you have, for a job like that you wouldn’t progress past application without meeting the criteria.


Which got me to thinking, about the applying to the RAF story.

“You can apply directly for RAF officer training.

You'll need a minimum of:

5 GCSEs at grades 9 to 4 (A* to C), including English and maths, and a science for some roles
2 A levels or equivalent”

The general application page says

“You can apply directly to join the RAF.

You'll need:

at least 3 GCSEs grades 9 to 4 (A* to C) including English and maths, and a science for some roles”

This can be summed up easily.

She's talking pish. She always talks pish.

Kind of regret asking now. Two thoughts. Who told her she could sing? What made her think that was a flattering camera angle and lighting?

Is the layout and typeface in those previews a true reflection of the final edition?

It all seems so basic, and, frankly, so shit. How can this be the product of years of work?

Reminiscent of:

I know that there is really no need to point out any more flaws in her tips, but I was once a pov (student living on my loan) and did indeed use a wine bottle as a rolling pin. In my haste to impress a boyfriend, I forgot I did not own one when attempting to make a pie. Now I know I did not freeze 5/6 of a bottle of water in it (I used it with the wine still in tact as obvs was cracking that open to impress said boyfriend later), but the major flaw in this tip is the condensation formed on the outside of the cold bottle. Needless to say the pastry ended up a soggy, sticky mess.

Fucksakes. Someone totally needs to take her aside and give her a few verbal slaps.

Altogether now to the sound of our dear departed Terry...

It ain't what you do it's the way that you grift it...
(repeat)

You're a try hard (aah-ahh-ah)
Don't mean a thing (aah-ahh-ah)
Rinse your hoops doll (aah-ahh-ah)
And share your PayPal thing (aah-ahh-ah)

Genuinely my look. Have never heard of Joe Brown. Might have to forensically investigate. Don't revoke my membership card, .

That Forensic Man

Even from what little we've seen she makes the exact same mistakes in Grifty Kitchen that have been seen in the slopalong before:
  • Boiling rinsed baked beans for 20 minutes
  • Forgets to say grate the cheese, just fold it into dough as-is
  • Lists unpeeled bananas, slice them but then slice the peels seperately (when did they get peeled)
  • Says to use self raising flour AND bicarbonate of soda
  • etc.
These are just the most obvious cock ups to me though, it's the same old horse shit
Not even mentioning the results, calories or nutrition, which look to be largely as bad as usual
It's just this time there's dangerous tips as well

This bit at the end is terrifying. You'd think the clip would improve when she stops singing but if anything it gets creepier.

pssst, Jack. Jaaaack. Listen to the epic Ursula Vernon here.

Oh, what am I saying: like you can hear anything through the honking.

(Not squigging because a blue tick and a lege.)
