Jack Monroe #579 She's essentially Scrappy-Doo in a bell jar now

[Geetbo]

Fleetwood Mac were gigging until 2 years ago and a lot of the yoof are familiar with them. It's not like she said she saw Buddy Holly live

Yeah that’s the main thing - the kind of yoot she is talking about would 100% know who fleetwood mac were/are.

‘Ephemeral havoc’? What the duck is she on about?

Another entry for the Jack dictionary!

All words are interchangeable

[People-huv-tae-know]

There are certain words that she over uses to either emphasise her smol victim status such as hunkers or howling. Others like ephemeral or psephologist are to show off her wordy prose like "oh look at me aren't I clever little middle class show off". Either way it's not, clever or funny and it gets on my tits.

Office.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

 

[Seaford Haggington]

There's no way she is in an office of an employer with colleagues. They would all have threatened to leave or demand to permanently work from home by now.

Thank god, indeed. Hey, Jack. Jack Jack. Jack Jack Jack… try this one:

I was onlyyyyyy forty-eight hours from deleeeete.

[kachoochoo]

you're 36, you're not exactly an ancient hag!

also, have you forgotten you're supposed to be a swiftie!!

remember "picking out" the melody of exile on the old joanna!?

 

[Geetbo]

I don’t think she’s realised the whole “Old Before My Time” act doesn’t really work anymore when you’re 35 and look about 50.

 

[Florid Language]

I'm 60 and used to pay between £2 and £5 (Genesis and Queen were greedy barstewards) to see groups in the mid seventies to early eighties. I'm definitely coming 'round to being a #1968 truther.
Has she been reduced to stealing Choccy and Ev's anecdotes for head pats?

Completed it mate

IDK but my theory is that she thinks SB's dad is beneath her (for reasons of local snobbery probs).

Hang on, with the poppy seeds affecting her brain surely she was beneath him?

 

[MurielSnark]

I could not name or sing one Taylor Swift song but even my curmudgeonly self has been moved by the pure happiness of all these young swifties exchanging their bracelets and going mad. It reminds me of the time I once tried to walk past a well-known Camden club in the afternoon and found myself in a teenybopper riot because Harry Styles was visiting.

Only very briefly, @Bread

Guest in the office earlier, being mad, me, innit! Fleetwoods Mac, tikkytoks, jumpers for goalpost, small boys, hmm, hmmm

Someone more knowledgable will have the timeline/receipts but I have no doubt she’ll have seen them on a recent tour at £100+ with some overlap of begging/grifting episodes

I use the Jubilee line to commute when I'm not on my bike and even though Taylor Swift isn't my thing, happy, excited people in sequins and pink cowboy hats have been a delight, the last few days.

Those poppy seeds, man. Who knew on from under?



ETA: feel a bit sick now.
