It's a blinder isn't it?! Only way to do eggs.
Another thread title contender? Jack Monroe-I don’t do nothing.
Ffs... for someone who hates exercise to spend four weeks’ worth of shopping (according to their specified £20 budgetShe wears Sweaty Betty for her biannual lay down on the sofa
) on a pair of leggings is laughable.Crack on Jack, crack on.
ETA it is not laughable. In the context of what is going on with FSM is it abhorrent.
I used to work for someone who paid Greece’s national debt!
me. He used to eat with his fingers even in top London restaurants. He certainly didn’t go to university.
Are you aware of her work Marcus?Is Marcus aware that he’s working with Jack?
All this uni talk, she’s so disingenuous. If it really was *that* big a deal, if she really feels as though it’s something that would improve her career opportunities and social standing and the rest, then why not just GO to university now, as a mature student. She’s been loaded and at a loose end for years, the bulk of her days are spent on SM, the idea that time and money stand in the way no longer apply (if they ever did) and even if she lacks GCSE’s, again, she has the time to get them if she so wishes. It’s hypothetical, of course, because she’s a lazy fucker and puts more effort into selfies and photoshop than in self-improving, but it doesn’t stop her making a song and dance and claiming some sort of special victimhood on account of her laziness. She has 10000 times more opportunity than your average joe, she just can’t be fucked to do anything with it.
It's really one of those things that's only impressive at a certain point in your life. I was a champion speller when I was eightI used to work for someone who paid Greece’s national debt!
but I rarely bring it up now, you know?A family member went to Oxbridge. Poor background, really tit high school, so it was a massive achievement. But they spunked it up the wall, spent the whole time drinking and doing drugs, did badly on exams, and has had a highly unremarkable career in admin. Getting into Oxbridge was amazing. But that family member peaked at 17.
Nobody cares what you did 10 years ago. It's all about what you're doing now (facetuning yourself into a prepubescent Bieber and tweeting furiously).
ETA: Plus of course in the culinary world - which she occasionally pretends to be a part of - very few of the big names went to university. I doubt Gordon Ramsay cries himself to sleep over it, you know?
These screenshots are doing the rounds on twitter. Replies to a Nigel Farage tweet, and evidence of the narrative Jack feeds with her £20 a week shops.
I work with a lot of academics in an academic-adjacent field. People often talk about where they went to uni during social moments (well, when we had those). It's just a conversation starter and yes, every so often someone says that they didn't. No one is embarrassed, no one thinks it's weird. It just leads to other conversations. Example:
A: Mack, where did you go to uni?
B: I didn't. I did cooking at college.
A: Oh wow, what was that like?
Funnily enough, Jackie, most people have manners and understand that their personal life experience isn't mirrored by everyone else they meet. They therefore don't feel awkward about asking and answering questions, nor do they feel the need to constantly justify their life choices or judge the choices other people have made.

Hahhaaaa. Beat me to it!
Totally. I was once going to a meeting with a colleague (remember going to meetings lol) at a local university and I asked him in conversation if he had gone to that university, he told me he hadn't been to university at all, and told me why and what he would have liked to have done if he had. I just assumed he had because he was so brilliant, which says more about my preconceptions than anything about him!
Can I put in an early request for the Halloween Edition to be titled
I hear a Bad Moon a-rising
please?
All she does is tweet.( Talk) I've seen more action in a Barbie doll.
Is it an Emin or a #Gifted Picasso, do you think?
The last time something like ever happened, George Bernard Shaw wrote a play about it.
its gonna haunt me all day!
She looks so unwell here
Such professionalism. Knowledge of ethical issues & nutrition, giving guidance-jack really knows her tit eh?

Just had a quick look on twitter. Found these tweets. I am so bleeping angry right now. How can she not see how dangerous she is?
