Tweet will be ‘what’s the best cheese?’ or something.

Nah you should have seen the vegan rage when Flora put milk back in Flora Buttery, then released a new vegan butter at twice the price. Fuck margarine.

I'm not vegan but do make a serious effort to keep it plant based when I'm at home and the only spread I can stand is Naturli spreadable I wouldn't buy butter and rather have dry toast than any other vegan spread

I’d be interested to know if people who are sober go on to develop these kinds of behavioural addictions because she seems like a case of someone replacing one addiction with another.

Oh yeah addiction substitution is super common in the early stages of recovery. Indeed social media addiction is one of the behavioural ones you'll generally see on example lists

I'm still terrified of pylons and even though I am now an adult I still can't believe they put them in fields near livestock. Also the fireworks ongoe where the little girl got her fingers blown off still haunts me.

The bottom bit of pylons are not dangerous, the cows won’t be electrocuted if they brush against them, it’s the cables at the top which are lethal.

I know my nan always used to go on about eating beef dripping on toast. Which sounds vile, tbh. Not sure if you can even get beef dripping now (not in supermarkets, anyway, I'm guessing if you asked a butcher you could).

. Yeah you’d definitely have to ask a butcher. I think my mum used to render it down herself from big fatty chunks of meat. Bit of a palaver.

Spoiler: OT public safety video mither

anyone else remember that animated one about a firefly (?) who played with matches and incinerated her entire village. I remember feeling a visceral emotional reaction to that (which I am now revisiting even as I write this) because I couldn't stop thinking about awful the firefly must have felt for burning down her town. So I spose it worked.

I remember this from when my son was small a good few years ago, think it was a space alien though. Anyway , the don't play with matches or lighters thing did work! He was forever terrified of my lighter and never touched it x

The grifty kitchen cover photo isn’t on her Twitter when I looked there; let’s see which ultimately misleading nonsense replaces it

What could account for this constant exhaustion?

Totally unrelated question:

Does anyone know if cocaine makes you tired?

I imagine it does it does if a session results in the building and positioning of heavy furniture.

'Rubbing the string on toasted bread' sounds like a euphemism.

It does, doesn't it.

 

[Onestorytoomany]

Is she back? Or is she just back alittle bit. Shes obviously off somewhere being a literal bore very important. I see no one has noticed. Bless her.

These things #1948truther

Except that Jack would probably "customize" them, like she did with that rabbit on top of the Easter cake for Old Harold's family

 

[HotesTilaire]

Me-rail and but I am unfortunately in an almost comedically terrible IBD flare at the moment, and am loling so hard at this. Lose my shit? Mate, completed it and I don’t need any help from a chaotic smol pixie.

Until the steroids kick in I’m all but trapped in the house, fortunately I am greatly entertained by this, I keep looking at it and laughing like a drain come on Jack, help a sister out and do us a lovely New Flat chaos! I’m bored and in pain here.

I think most of the ones that terrified me have been mentioned- railways of death, murderous pylons, quarries filled with doom- but the other one that haunted me was more reality based: children falling down artesian wells, never to be seen again. It can’t have been, but in my memory there was a series of them? Awful

I heard of an oubliette the other day. WARNED! Although that is where Jack‘s slop should go

 

[Mrs Peel]

Lurkers who read along but haven't joined might email the organisers of these festivals and say what we can't. You never know.

Yes. I was thinking the same thing...

Saw this, thought immediately of Jack… View attachment 1946792

Oh my gosh, a lady at work shared this today… maybe she… or another colleague… is a frau… it was shared at 9:17?!!!

 

[Valiofthedolls]

I predict

@bootstrapcook It's time to settle the age old debate, are Jaffa Cakes cake or biscuit?

 

[Valiofthedolls]

It's at the point where the word 'unruly' on it's own turns my stomach now

Just think of something lovely and ruly instead. Like a beautiful coffee bean cupped in the capable nail-bepainted hand of Sarah Greene serving up a delicious Nescafé to Diane and Gareth.

 

[WoolyMammoth]

I think it's a twee little "joke" for checking if room is occupied

You just made me imagine a whole row of teeny pink knitted ladies as individual tampon covers

Not tiny knitted pineapples?

 

[Saltfish84]

I’m not being funny but that public info film is crap. I was born in the 80s so most of those films had petered out, but to me it was just terrible acting kids and the most un-injured kid hit by a train ever.

Anyhoo…just waiting patiently for a Jackie chaos

 

[I'm not actually here]

Aw thanks Jack for reappearing on the weekend.

Lay your bets now whether she can keep this going right through till Tues eve..... How much j1gging will it take?!!

 

[I'm not actually here]

To this day I have an escalator ritual that involves not stepping on the first step, standing exactly in the middle, holding the right rail with my left hand free, keeping all items of clothing (especially a scarf) far away from anything, and jumping off before the last step. Thanks, children's TV nonsense.

What's the betting jack got trapped by an escalator when she was nine, followed by being struck by lightning when she was ten, ending with an unfortunate incident with a pylon when she was eleven.

We didn't even have a TV when I was a kid, and I do that on escalators!
