I had to comment because I found the 30 year mark interesting. My family has been using the same plastic tree since 2001 and it still lights up and has even moved counties with us. So it's definitely possible or nearly possible. I'm going to see to it that our tree reaches 30 now.

Honestly, sometimes I see her house and I get SO MAD because I would love to live in such a gorgeous house and have that space. Growing up in a cramped house with a view of the main road and no desk....and she has all this but still manages to make it manky through her lack of hygiene and hoarding.

It's definitely easily doable, especially if you have a non-lit tree which has less breakable parts. Our family tree has been going strong as long as I can remember and doesn't look any worse for wear. You're only using it one month out of the year, so that's substantially less wear and tear than the average household decor items that are up year-round.

In terms of space the house looks fantastic but the lack of hygiene and the weird furniture makes it look like they've absolutely got no taste. I mean, look at Ruby's desk - it strikes me as so impractical, when I write or work on my desk I want to spread out and have my computer/laptop on there as well as books, a mug of tea etc. Ruby's desk is so small nothing fits there (except her Macbook ) so she's got to park her stuff on the windowsills and on the floor. They have absolutely zero taste and sense.

The lack of modernisation for things like the windows and heating is baffling to me as well. I guess when money isn't an issue, cranking the antiquated heating system all day and night and letting all the heat escape through the single pane windows (which Ruby usually leaves open all over the house) isn't a concern.

Yeah I agree-how does she work on that? Oh wait, she doesn't- she sits and drinks tea and writes 'to do' lists all day, and probably has a little scroll through Tattle as a reward. Also, my back hurts just looking at that chair.

I'm a building surveyor and can only assume the building must be listed otherwise surely they'd have upgraded to double glazed lookalike replacements by now. With all that condensation that timber must be rotting to shit, it also must be freezing in there. Bet it stinks of damp (and therefore mould) too.

How the other half live! It is sad these richos are generating more wealth from social media

They have air conditioning too since Ruby thinks it’s fine to leave the fridge and freezer doors open

It doesn't appear on any listed building directories, so Ruby and her family seemingly just enjoy living in cold, damp squalor too much to consider things like saving money on heating bills or increasing the value of their home.

Wow, it's not like they don't have the funds!! Those windows should be their absolute priority anyway as once water's got in over a long period of time you're (speaking in purely technical terms of course) fucked
Maybe they're looking to demolish and rebuild once they've ruined what they've got, then rinse and repeat. Nothing would surprise me anymore.

To be fair, I'm pretty sure live trees are more environmentally friendly unless you use a plastic tree for 30+ years.
I mean, my family has been using the same plastic tree for like 25 years at this point bc getting live trees was never really a thing in my country. So yeah they do last that long

Earlier this evening I watched Spiderman: Far From Home and I swear to God I kept thinking of Betty as "Ruby" because they're literally identical.



Look at this

The building they live in is actually split in three, so I doubt that’s in the plans. They’re just generally inept.

Ruby: In one of her Live Study With Me, a bug entered her room through the open window then she ran downstairs holding her MacBook and her camera like a maniac.
Also Ruby: Kills every fly she sees in her room and decorates their corpses on her window-sill.

Ruby noted down Jack's recommendations right after his video. Let's see how many she reads because these are some serious ones and cannot be categorized within children's books.

(04:49)

On a relatively warm day, she doesn't open the windows to free the flies swarming on her window.

In the dead of winter, she'll happily sit with the windows open while wearing numerous layers of thick clothing, constantly complaining about being cold.



Nothing she does makes sense and there's permanent 'Be Back Soon' sign hanging where her brain should be.

where her brain should be.
It is already rotten.

Imagine Ruby getting bullied by Bully Maguire

( Both of them are in Ruby's kitchen)
Ruby: Helloooo it's Rooobeeee...and you are...ah, yes...Balle Mango!
Bully Maguire: You got my name wrong!
Ruby: NO! I am right your English is poor.
Bully Maguire: Err...leave it! Oh...that's a cute outfit! Did your husband give it to you?
Ruby: No, I am unmarried because I am still 12. By the way, thanks, hot legs!
Bully Maguire: That's my line...
Ruby: Sewry!
Bully Maguire: You want forgiveness? Get religion.
Ruby: Well, I am an atheist but follow Buddhism. (she mentioned this in one of her QnA)
Bully Maguire: Go flock yourself, feather face!
Ruby: Ohhhhh...that's such a nice compliment. AND I suddenly remembered that you have come to rent a room in our super-organized house...
Bully Maguire: I am really gonna enjoy this...
Ruby: BUT! You would have to give me one month's rent in advance because every time someone comes here to rent a room, they leave the very next day throwing a book of house cleaning tips at my face.
Bully Maguire: (Kicks the open gate of her refrigerator) You'll get you your rent when you fix this damn door!
Ruby:

Bully Maguire: You're trash!
Ruby:

Bully Maguire: Gonna cry?
Ruby: No, no, noooooooo...


Bully Maguire: I'd love to shoot you sometime.
Ruby: Mummyyyyyyyyyyyyy...
