Jack Monroe #523 Everything she does is pointless busywork that solves nothing

[MooBelle]

long time grunker and lurker, first time poster! just wanted to stick my head in and say hello to the canal, can't wait to get stuck in with the next chaoi but mostly need to let you all know that you're a stellar and compassionate bunch and reading these threads for the last 8ish months has been extremely eye opening both for the capacity of uplifting kindness here and also incredible feats of bleepness from the titular tit herself.

I won't bore you all with my own tale of how I came across Jack Monwoe but I'm so happy to finally be here among fellow frauen.

back OT - the “flirting” in the excerpt above is too much. she thinks she's Carrie from Sex and the City but it's more Slop and Gritty

Oh do please share. We love an origin story here!

@Domacles is here! Are you the dangling landlord’s behest one?

Or are you the sword of domacles of appeal?

As per usual, despite having English as my native language, I’ve no idea what guest is talking about in either case, but I’m liking the idea of a dangling landlord’s behest. Not sure what that says about me really

Shall I do a new thread, ninnies?

New thread, ninnies, frauen, herren, otheren, lurkers and general hangers-on https://tattle.life/threads/jack-mo...ence-in-this-critical-area-of-our-life.40154/

Can we ask how they pronounce Mither though?

Like wither

Does any one else read “Borbora” in the voice of David Senior, the boring dad of Dave Best (Ie Denise Royles husband)

you don’t decline a recline, Borbora!

I thought it was illegal not to… cannot deal with the word mingle either after that episode.

Is Scamanda the podcast a true story? I've googled it and thought it was a fictional drama but now you've got me curious.

Yes it’s a true story. Really good story

 

[I'm not actually here]

It'd probably be okay if they made some effort to set her talk in context. Print out copies of the "she's a fraud, a liar, a thief" Shattenstone interview for the audience, have her be interviewed by someone who's spent a couple of days studying the Tattle Wiki and the Molly archive, that sort of thing.

But they won't - she'll be allowed to present her usual lies without being challenged.

At this point, it looks like they're deliberately participating in a fraud.

Well, isn't that last the question they need asking?

I think I might renew my NUJ membership....

You know who ALWAYS reads Trifle Defender’s tweets? Nigella. I do wonder what she makes of it all. She’s been rather quiet about Jack lately. (As well she might, given she was complicit in that big push for Patreons last year).

I don't think she was happy after hungry hungry games 2. Has she responded since her post ' you're lying?' Or how? Or unbelievable? I can't remember, I do think that opened Nigellas eyes.

 

[Veronicaaa]

Imagine handing copy over for her to approve.
It'd come back with all normal verbs crossed out and instructions like 'good but pls replace "walked" with "scurried" & "ran" with "scampered" and "walked upstairs" with "clambered". Also needs moar adverbs pls &thkyou'

"Marauding" round the supermarket.

 

[Bugger13]

Yes! That's the word that was escaping me @MooBelle I knew it was something utterly ridiculous

Perhaps she once cooked for one of them & correctly predicted they’d have chronic diarrhoea for the next 24h?
Or maybe it’s her uncanny ability to predict where gift giving puddles & charity shops selling le cruset bakeware for 10p can be found?

let’s annoy her some more

[BenignNarcissist]

Is it my Twitter playing up or has she deleted the photos from her ‘two boxes of hair dye under the stairs’ post?

Or maybe Elon has just got sick of looking at them.

I wondered if it's been reported as self-harm or something

Her last Greenbelt talk is still up, if anyone can stomach it https://www.greenbelt.org.uk/talks/i-was-hungry-and-thirsty-were-you-there/

If not, here's Greenbelt's description of it -

That sounds like something she could well have written herself.

This is exactly it, I’ve been reading here daily since before last Christmas and picked up a lot of the jokes and chat and history that way, not to mention the wiki (there’s literally a section on in-jokes!). I get why there’d be suspicion on newbies who seem knowledgeable quickly, especially given the subject of these threads, though. I can’t speak for anyone else, but I’ve felt like part of this community for months without being able to interact and now I can it’s fun to just jump right into it. Apologies if it’s a bit much.

That and there are similar forums out here (no names mentioned but I am not referring to rhymes-with-bums-net) which have a similar ethos. As in we're all here to snark and that brings us together.

I do really like the atmosphere here and Grunking is one of my favorite words. It's also great to see - not just on here, but all over the site - so many different takes and opinions expressed without dog-piling or table flipping because someone's jimmies got rustled or their feefees were hurt.

Rest of the internet could learn a lot. Especially the comments club and jacks enablers.

Oh can I make a thread name suggestion please? "With a slop-slop here, and a grift-grift there, Jack's slop-grifting everywhere".

I would suggest "smol chaos has slops if you have coin" but that's because I am a poorly tenderstem and off work and playing The Elder Scrolls, send immodium-eenoes, thankspaceyou.

Trifle defender has replied to that Greenbelt Statement tweet

*Checks it is indeed still Monday ( just ) and NOT a Tuesday *

True! Also, I hadn't seen this Poundshop Sally Bowles one before and I'm literally howling.

Are you in any of the RD fan groups on FB? They’ve been almost as much of a bin fire as Guests Twitter mentions recently . Any time anyone mentions iPlayer it starts off all the “ I’ve got them on dvd because I’m a real fan who wants to enjoy them as intended not edited for some woke agenda” “ but why not BTE?” “ good they’ve missed BTE, that was dire”,” you can watch them on -exclusively American app here, all seasons”, RD doesn’t have seasons you goit” “ Tetchy/women’s period gif” , “ what seasons have been cut/yes we know about the funeral song”

I do but don't post, lurk only (and I don't use FB that much anymore). I'll have to have a look.
I am a real fan who had the tapes () then bought the dvds but also loves been able to stream to the TV in the kitchen.

Ffs, I tried and managed 10 seconds. The gleeful honk & ‘arthritis’ straight away. How does anyone listen to her for more than ten seconds, let alone pay for the sodding privilege?

I just clocked your avatar and nearly fell out of bed laughing!

God, her singing...for someone so average she fully rates herself.
