Jack Monroe #476 Avec Dangereux Dave and Les Pantalons of Beaucoup Grandes Humiliations

[Dogmuck]

Welcome to our new thread SHE’S BACK!

Congratulations to @Valiofthedolls for the words & nominated by @Shimmering - you both win a 30p meal from Lee who is also OBSESSED with Jack.

Jack reactivated yesterday but had us all on tenterhooks waiting for the first tweet. We waited and waited and much wine was drunk and she didn’t tweet. Then early this morning she came out fighting.

Sorry for the crappy recap, I’m exhausted, please knock yourselves out.

For newbies please check out the wiki - link at the top of the page.

Is there anyone / any newspaper / anything she hasn’t threatened to sue for libel?

 

[witchofwestbyfleet]

Jack is lashing out at 30p Lee and thinks that she will now "manifest" being a millionaire if enough people call her a grifter. New Age Jack incoming?

 

[MavisBeacon]

Summary of the last thread: maybe the real jack monroe tweet was the friends we made along the way

 

[Dogmuck]

Any mods about to correct my poor French in the title - I appear to have got my patalons in a twist - merci beaucoup mon cheri

 

[Emmapism]

A humanitarian disaster in Turkey and Syria and Jack comes back tweeting about the important stuff, namely that someone in the Express implied she was wealthy and *grabs handbag* a chef

Sue them, sue them all.

Never change you self obsessed twonk

 

[Phillipa78]

In the last thread, fraus amused themselves by recounting terrifying PSA videos of decades gone by. The dramatic pause was shattered when Jack took legal umbridge at the Daily Express's political editor - over the lack of a vitally important comma.

It seems punctuation is only a design choice if Jack makes the call.

Sacre bleu!

 

[overdueanadventure]

Can we expect another marathon of indignant tweeting followed by a pouting week of silence?

Of course we can.

recap:

[oh, and by the sounds of it she *still* hasn't moved]

Jack caught in another whopper lie embellishing and exaggerating THE POV (TM)

Spoiler: SS spoiler for length

Last May, Jack talks about the day she wrote Hunger Hurts. “Huddling on a mattress on the floor with a toddler” at the end of July 2012.

She also says in that piece she sold “everything she owned”

Except Jack didn’t have her sale of “everything she owned” until the following month on Saturday 18th August 2012, would have actually had a bed to sleep in on July 30th-31st, so wouldn’t have needed to be “huddled on the floor” on her “mattress”.

Not only that, she told Xanthe Clay in March 2013 that she never actually sold her BED because nobody wanted it. So she actually had a bed for the whole of 2012 AND 2013 and never, ever once had to sleep “huddled on a mattress on the floor” with her young child.

AND also lies when she says she “sold everything she owned” because she still had both the bed and “a few (other) leftovers” furnishing her flat.

She’s such a disgusting poverty tourist and MASSIVE bleeping LIAR

In true Monroe style, tonight I might either sleep in the wood burner, or in a box, in preparation for being dead in about 50 years time.

 

[mackjonroe]

I can’t see her tweets, can anyone else?

Pantalon? Sur un oiseau?!

(Like Jack and her use of Yiddish, this was brought to you via Google translate)

 

[FlirtyThirty]

This is one of my favourite titles yet.

Is this move actually happening or is she just going to squirrel into one of the many rooms of the crappy b and pretend??

In true Monroe style I’m going to spend the next week pissing my pants in practice for potential future incontinence.

Yeah her tweets are there. No problem I can see. X

Yes. Jack's account is open and everything looks normal.
