Hmm not sure of this has been flagged and as a frau who doesn’t use PayPal I thought this was interesting. It smells like BigGreenBooks uses a Jack esque model of doing business what with seeing tax as an optional payment and now this method of exhorting customers to pay using friends and family. This method apparently invalidates your consumer rights ( no idea if this claim is valid but on the surface it does make sense).

Still Grunking the last thread, so apologies if it’s been referred to

Frauen.....its been a long day, but can we just take a minute to appreciate what the scene must be like in the crappy bungalow right now. I imagine it will be littered with tin cans ripped open by Jack's bare hands, and not a single radiator left on the wall.

Chaos beyond our wildest dreams x

Hoist by her Very Own Niche Genre.
Touché , Jack, touché.

Thanks so much! I get it now. What I don't get though is why someone would have four carabiners in their house but not a colander? This is the mallet question all over again.

Love your ''mistake! I can admit mine'' note btw.

I also wonder why anyone with a modicum of sense would go to the trouble of cooking pasta to the point of readiness then not have a plan or kitchen implement to remove pasta from said pan. She's a simpleton.

 

[DinosaurSenior]

She'd better be careful. Coming out fighting is one thing, but throwing out potentially libellous claims in a scattergun manner is quite another

A new day of chaos begins.

We must be approaching the Deactivate Twitter stage of the cycle now. I reckon either today or next week when Grifty Kitchen smashed into the book charts at number 39.

If she sees nothing wrong with storing knives like this, perhaps that explains why she sees nothing wrong with suggesting people use a knife and a hammer to open a tin. She just has no sense. These are all sharp (or they should be, if you look after them properly). You shouldn't store your kitchen knives in such a way that an unwary plunge of your hand into the drawer results in cut fingers. A lot of them are also expensive (I can see two Global brand, they're a couple of £100 each) and storing them like this will damage them.

The red knife on the left, next to one of the Globals is a stanley type for DIY. Two three things

1. it should be in your toolbox, not your kitchen drawer, you skanky mare
2. the black slider is for retracting the blade into the handle so you don't bleeping cut yourself on it.
3. She's so bleeping stupid and careless

Agree with all of this, and that’s without even asking why she needs - let me see - 5 almost identical chef’s knives left in shitstate in this particular kitchen nightmare.

Tell me you’ve got a shopping/hoarding problem without telling me you’ve got a shopping/hoarding problem.

This is probably off limits, but I do just want to quietly, softly mention how much I’m enjoying/becoming quite disturbed by WB having her own chaos on Jack’s behalf She is the queen squig.

Who is WB? Can’t work it out ????

A PR's dream scenario lololol

Idek what to caption this as but we need reminding that these are meant to be crumpets but she’s clearly poked the holes in them herself.

Sorry, but why?? To make them more crumpet like/ appealing? She really thinks we're all simple, doesn't she.

That was covered in thread #450, tender one.

Well I for one am amazed that this is Jack’s “defence”

And Jack calling someone else’s writing a “rambling essay”.

 

[NeoCortex]

She'd better be careful. Coming out fighting is one thing, but throwing out potentially libellous claims in a scattergun manner is quite another

But she knows everything about libel. Because she saw an article about it in the Times

 

[TbilisiPeach]

I enjoyed the article. I like articles that don't go too deep on the more insane aspects (SPOOOONS) as it can come off as a bit unhinged. This seems fair and balanced and I like the angle of the 'acceptable poor' and exploring a bit why people are attracted to the 'make do and mend' - mentality (which isn't wrong in itself, just like everything else, people take it to ridiculous lengths and we get lint in toilet rolls). It's well-written and has a clear direction and focus.
I'd now like an investigative piece that looks into the scam aspect in detail, but I've always felt Jack is only part of a wider societal problem we have with people begging on SM. She's but a ring pull in a Fanta-packaging machine. Matei, Kirsty, Chrismate - are you still here?

Funny to see her try the 'there's no such thing as bad publicity' angle. I'm not sure people taking about how tit your tips are is that great, hen.

 

[Witchfinder Sargeant]

Sorry, but why?? To make them more crumpet like/ appealing? She really thinks we're all simple, doesn't she.

Just guessing here, but I suspect it went like this:

1. her mad little puppy brain came up with a tit recipe that doesn't work
2. someone (the food stylist/photographer?) said "err, aren't crumpets supposed to have holes in them?"
3. Sticking rigidly to her "one and done" method of recipe testing, and possibly up against the deadline for the photography, she went "duck it" and stabbed a load of holes in them, rather than admitting the recipe doesn't work and going back to the drawing board.
