Says a lot for how inept and full of shit she is that I checked the date to see if it had been written ludicrously out of season

I actually don't know whether to laugh or cry. How the actual fuck has she had a platform for a decade???

I miss germolene. Can I buy it through an affiliate link on her website??? With a free recipe. Praps.

She also (2022) “secretly foraged” in a cupboard, at her Italian and Somalian first ever housemates’ spices when she left home at 16.


Or (in 2014), when she left home at 18 and learned to cook from foraging the labels on the back of Loyd Grossman jars.
And if you go to (2020) and about 33 mins in here, the very same housemates have become half-Italian and Nepalese. All imaginary first housemates are interchangeable.
It’s ALL VERY CONFUSING isn’t it, you massive grifting fantasist.
2014
(Bonus I’m BUTCH)
2022
Edit: just remembered that time she said she lived alone for 14 years after Dave and Ev realized by the time she was 4 how insufferable she was, banished her to live in the shed and started to take in feral children, who, unlike Shed Jack, they allowed to live in their actual house.


Mind you, she also said she’d been “waiting for a perm” (done by the “sea air”) for 17 years, from age 12 to age 29 so again it’s very hard to know what to believe.

From that 2022 link. Why are you crossing the picket line in the first place, you cosseted fucking dickhead. Spoiled workshy brat. FFS what an analogy to choose.


Just remembered that she’s written one of her searing indictments upon contemporary Britain (the rest of which is sadly lost to time) about the picket line too. She’s on it this time, not crossing it. Lyrics and (no) Music by Jack Monroe.

Foraging for other people's food is just... stealing? Can't imagine her housemates were wealthy or they'd have upped sticks and moved out as she honked in

Secretly foraged - I think she thinks foraged is the same as rummaged??

Also I guess 14 is just her go-to number for lies exaggerations?



I HAAAAAATE the use of "promptly" there. You don't grow up in one sudden instance. You can't say promptly there! You liked the chicken from primary school to teenhood!

This post is riddled with horrible writing but that's the bit that winds me up the most. Even moreso than "spiked" and "queer little thing I was" which are . And the fact that a tub of chicken and s bag of chips would cost more than a bus fare. I know it's just fantasising but she could at least try for verisimilitude

But seriously she had her child at what 22? So she either thinks he is not a person or she left home and started renting a house by herself aged eight #actuallyautistic #cannotlie

I’d not read the recipe before but as she doesn’t tell you to put the oven on until after you’ve finished mixing all the ingredients, I’m not surprised it didn’t rise.

Also she tells you to buy a bag of frozen mixed fruit and pick the blackberries out if you can‘t find fresh. How thrifty! And her maths won’t work because they won’t be exactly a fifth of the bag.

She’s an absolute insult

Fortunately for the housemates, they’re imaginary. Just like these poor imaginary bastards.

She was particularly insufferable that thread. That said, the incident above did lead to some banging Canal Art

I’ve never understood why she thinks there’s anything odd about liking coronation chicken as a child. It’s got a mild curry, creamy and fairly sweet flavour, it’s hardly an acquired taste and probably something most children would eat.

We all say we’re glad when she shuts the fuck up, but then we end up talking about eating packing peanuts.

I have to say I’m amazed she hasn’t popped up with some sub zero political analysis. The mocking during the local elections must have stung.

For crying out loud, don't say that!

She'll be claiming next that she is a "Muse" providing inspiration for artists of international repute.

Is Jack confusing picket lines with some kind of Napoleonic battle formation? How does one position the brazier?!

Well, she does provide plenty of a-muse-ment for the canal.

What delightful secrets can a plastic tub of Coronation Chicken have?!

‘Don’t tell the tomatoes, Flora, but last night I gave the radish an hour to remember in the salad compartment!’

It’s a sandwich filler, not Chelsea Manning.
