Jack Monroe #515 Socialist in the streets, capitalist in the balance sheets

I know it was @Brian Butterfield who actually came up with the thread title, but since it was me who then wrote three words nominating it, I am simply honoured to have had my HARD work and 120 hour working weeks FINALLY acknowledged.

Now I'm off for a piss and a sandwich.

I’ve missed 100 threads. Without beginning to catch up or read the wiki I will bet my Friday night wine that she hasn’t moved. December fake-mis-delivery-to-the-new-house is even more a lie, i think? Am I right?

Thinks that haven’t happened
-move house
-release any sort of VBI
-mention Grifty Kitchen
-maintain a relationship with a man
- instigate a relationship with a woman/enby

Inexplicable

@Lazarus i can never believe Smithdown has an Asda. It was Netto and Kwiksave when I lived there.

Oh lord, the further along you go, the more hipster it becomes. I don’t live at that part of town anymore but was there a couple of weekends ago.
There’s bookshops, French bistro, Belzan, lovely bars, artisan cake shops (sadly Dafna’s is closed), Mexican food, all sorts. I only moved 3 years ago, to be nearer the beach but the difference is unreal!

Okay, let’s be honest Ninny’s, the last thread was boring.

Something for the weekend, Fraus?

If I knew guests dealer I’d pay him to nip some j1g round.

 

[Limey]

Has she moved yet?

Never mind that, WHAT HAPPENED IN DORDRECHT?

 

[Mitzymooface]

Seriously though, she can’t still be waiting to move? I’m property market adjacent and it doesn’t take that long to resolve issues. If she was in a chain she’d have been mithering about it by now.

 

[Jelly Bean]

Do we reckon chess bae has dumped her?
He wasn't included in the list of loving supportive things

 

[Walkdengirl]

Oh my word, Jimmie nail is on totp on bbc4

You take all the credit, pal. I prefer to do all my work behind the scenes

I had to stop when she said this was a KEYNOTE speech. She really does not know the meaning of that word.

 

[ChocolateMuffin]

My OH who hasn't LEFT, asked me about 20 minutes ago, what I'd been saying about it looking like something was coming out about guest (although she did say 'that Jack Monroe person').
I've just stopped talking at her after realising she had totally zoned out and looked like she may well leave me.
She did disclose she still followed guest and gently, quietly passed me her phone.
She's voraciously and serendipitously scooped me up with a non verbalised agreement to not to talk about her ever again hasn't she?

Thanks so much - I'd been reluctant to pay for it myself in case they provided her with a list of purchasers and she recognised my name (yes, I'm paranoid)....

Oh god, she starts with the 5'1.7" thing!

ETA: Bloody hell, she sounds absolutely terrified...

 

[CabalofBolorneaise]

We might get a narc high soon from the lack of police action over the CCJ doxxing…

ETA: he has said in a reply to someone that the media are showing an interest… grain of truth to doorstepping??

It’s getting gentrified, Frito is like a gateway to another dimension. It’s still mainly tit, though. But you can get a pastel de nata. Lodge Lane boxpark is mind blowing to me the Kwiksave is a black asda now.

I was surprised to see that this tweeter was not one Jack Monroe. Its just so Jack.

If it was Jack Tweeting this, she would have been the one to say it in the story and everyone would have clapped and sung and afterwards gone up to her and said “you’re Jack Monroe aren’t you? Thanks for all you do” and then they would have done a whip round and paid for her tube fair.

Spoiler: Smithdown chat

how the fuckity duck is it hipster now? I was telling child that when I lived there the whole brickwork front of a building fell off into the street as it was in such a bad state. It was such a dump when I lived there HOWEVER it was super cheap and walkable into uni…
