Jack Monroe #445 A criminal, liar, fraud, grifter and all round heartless asshole

And are able to party sober until 5am on a weeknight.

Was gonna say about that. In my mid twenties I knew plenty of midweek party people who could gonout till 5am snd still make it to work, but you guessed it, they weren't "sober" in any sense of the word

I would like people pick up on how dangerous her advice is. I would like this to happen before the book is given out at food banks. I think that there are enough people interested that the information will come out. The food blogger with 20,000 followers will notice it for a start. I would like Trussell Trust to wake up to their responsibilities. I think they should never have facilitated the distribution of Tin Can Cook, and would like to see enough light shed on this that they do not do the same with Thrifty Kitchen.
I did wonder who would be ultimately responsible for the content of the book. Jack or publisher, editors.

If it’s given out at a TT food bank and god forbid someone slices their hand open following her knife tip, I suspect it would be the TT who would have no win no fee lawyers knocking at their door and a whole heap of negative publicity. So it’s in their best interest to do like they did with the Tees - realise the tide has turned and back out of this.

ETA: I still personally believe they had approved the Tees (albeit maybe without checking the slogans) and when they saw the backlash, changed their mind on Jack.

Nah, she's implying autism.

She’s breadcrumbing Autism or PTSD without having read the facts. Either way, she’s still a massive thieving bellend.

Aww, did Content cure her autistic sensory issues? That's so heartwarming and impossible!

 

[Veronicaaa]

I don't think she was out until 5am, guys? I think she woke up early.

 

[Marmalade Atkins]

Can someone explain what or who “Matt Gloss” is, please? I’ve missed something along the way and don’t understand the reference.

Canal nickname for Jack's friend who owns a paint shop.

Apologies I don't know where this will land, but I've been really enjoying treating my Old Harold (who hasn't LEFT yet) to some thrifty tips and seeing his reaction.

He's also been popo for 20+ years so good fun asking him about 'firm police advice', this is mostly met with swearing or 'that doesn't make SENSE'

Here Jack, some additional testimonials for your promo tweets courtesy of Mr C90...

Tuna tin egg ring - "horrific"

Knife strainer - *perplexed look followed by rubbing of temples* "no?!"

Knife & hammer tin opener - "you can't be serious"

Overall character analysis - "they clearly enjoy riding band wagons"

I think she stayed up late with her friend the snowman

LEAVE JACK ALONE

Hmmm my very autistic household keep pestering me for a dog but I’m not keen knowing I’ll be the one doing the work but if it means less screaming when it’s time to wash then maybe it’s a go-er

Don’t children make sudden, loud and unexpected noises?

Harping back to previous mention of COSHH - her home isn’t a workplace (except when it is) but ironing superglue is never a good idea. Quick glance at the safety data sheet shows it gives off noxious vapours - respiratory irritant, heating it up might give you a double whammy. If anyone could be arsed to hem their rags, wondaweb or whatever it’s called is a safer bet. If you were on the bones of your arse, would you bother, would you have the time or funds to buy glue to do this?

It’s a perpendicular travesty!

 

[hiyaaaacath]

Omg! I had some friends (real life, not imaginary) over for lunch and i miss the entire Christmas chaos?
This mornings grunking is hilar, I was struck by this post. My (alcoholic) nan used to speak like this after a bottle or whiskey:

Me “lovely day isn’t it nan”
Nan “yes but it will only be pissing it down tomorrow”

Me “you’re looking well, nan!”
Nan “well, I’ll be dead soon”

Hmmm, there were 7 hours there where she didn't post at all, I think we'd be waking up to much more of her nonsense if she'd had an all nighter.

Matt Gloss is Jack's mate from the paint shop (possible new romantic partner). Matt Gloss as in paint (Matt or gloss) also works well because of Matt Goss from the band Bros.

Awwww, i love a good uplifting dog story. Saying that, If Jack had made the film “Marley and Me” it would have just been called ME”

Is Pesky Blinders about gypsies/travellers? If so, this squig is absolutely right about how problematic Jack's cosplay is:

 

[FlirtyThirty]

Oh, I'm sorry I didn't pick that up. I hope nobody took offence. I'm quite a jumpy person who is unfortunately married to Foghorn Leghorn- I jump when he laughs or sneezes unexpectedly.
Apologies if I caused offence

Not in the slightest because your example was an excellent one - I feel so sorry for your poor mum! I have ADHD (actual diagnosed) and I have the same reaction to unexpected or loud noises, a very physical startle or even occasional squeak of shock. It’s a general ND thing too.

ETa just realised I have replied to wrong poster. I create my own chaos.

Activist Jack Monroe glues herself to a dishcloth. She is eventually released by members of the Essex Celebrity Squad

Yes, the main family are Travellers. It's quite a big part of the storyline. Anyone who has watched 5 minutes of it will be aware of the family's heritage.
