ruby NEVER wears jeans. she hates them and doesn't own any. except for when she does, and mentions it in her instagram story. and of course, she suddenly started taking her dog on her morning walks, right after someone here pointed out that she doesn't. oh, ruby

Okay who is this jeans wearing harlot and what has she done to our pure-as-the-driven, don’t-own-jeans-never-wear-them little miss Rootabaga?

Man that poor dog must have nerves of steel to put up with Ruby's twirling around and repeatedly walking back and forth to film herself on those 'aesthetic' walks.

Ruby: Hello, it's Ruby! Today, I'm going to take you on a nice dark macademia-themed walk through the muddy fields before breakfast! Isn't that just lovely!! So cozy and autumnal!!
Ruby's dog: *looks into the camera like they're on The Office*

The fact that she felt the need to point out that she decided to wear jeans just screams "haha I'm so quirky and special and not like other girls™, give me attention".
Literally nobody cares if you wear jeans or not. Yeah some people might think it's weird but at the end of the day if you don't like jeans it's your prerogative to not wear them.
She is the only one making a big deal out of this and turning it into a personality trait, to the point that when she does wear jeans (because she was lying when she said she doesn't even own a pair of jeans), she has to emphasize that this is not normal for her! It might seem normal to you but Ruby is special! She only wore jeans because her other trousers were being washed! If it were up to her she'd be wearing corduroy trousers or a skirt and tattered tights because she's an old soul!

Every time someone writes “hello, it’s Ruby”, I read it in my head in a ”hellooo, my name’s NINOOOO!” voice and it’s really quite disturbing.

I heard the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy in my car the other day, I was half expecting to hear "Hallo it's Roooobeeee" 😬
Forever shall the two be associated in my mind, aaargh! That's what repetition does to you!

She doesn't own or wear them, yet owns and wears them in (at least) dark blue, pale blue/white and black.

I'd say someone needs to keep a running tally of the amount of times she's immediately contradicted her "I ALWAYS [insert thing she never does]" and "I NEVER [insert things she does often]" grand, declarative statements that she didn't have to make, but that would be a full-time unpaid job for someone.

Only if her results are absolutely stellar, which I'm highly doubtful of. Who knows what she'll cobble together though. How I'd like to be the examiner marking her dissertation.
Is she gets stellar results, Exeter may as well flush its reputation at that point.

What disturbs me most about this photo is her inability to wear her hat correctly. It's a beret not a beanie. What a mess....

I think you guys are missing the point a little, I wouldn’t wear white jeans on a muddy dog walk either

but also I knew someone in school who would constantly go on about never wearing dresses to try and get attention. Ruby gives me the same energy a lot

Ruby living in her parents' giant manor, owning her own house, with an entire warehouse-sized horde of clothes, expensive gifted electronics that she never uses and a stockpile of ill-gotten cash:

I disagree, she could have done well in a "soft" science like biology or economics but I think it would've been a disaster if she tried doing something like math, physics or engineering that involved abstract concepts.
Ruby mentioned that at some point she struggled with highschool math and she seems the type to study by brute memorization instead of understanding the concepts, which might work in school but not in uni.

A uni professor (engineering student here) told us that they often put one or two problems on the exam that usually only a few or none will be able to solve, because they require some degree of creative thinking. So it's not as easy as just learning the material and taking the exam.
Biology is definitely not a soft science. Would class a soft science as things like philosophy and stuff.

The reality is that she is an utter mess. Unless she was studying:
(a) the privileges of stencilling freckles on your face to appear more bucolic:
(b) the privileges of p-$$ing around in a field to appear of working class stock;
(c) letter writing in a bonnet while fire setting your friend to whom you have become besotted:
she will always appear to be a mess. For anyone who has endured the hard graft of studying literature, it does not involve posters, or escapee's rooms, or cribbing your room mate's work.

Philosophy, linguistics or politics are soft sciences imo, and tbh her original theology degree would have complimented a history or philosophy joint honours. English lit is not conducive to her future, she hates “woolly” reading aka above middle grade, can’t structure essays without Blakeney’s help, and thinks a Victorian literature specialism = can ask tutors about and do a masters in historical context. She’s just been let down and misled by her school and parents when she could have succeeded in her rote memory and to be fair, ‘naval gazing’ strong skills. It’s not fun or interesting to hear her ED brain rambles on the winter weather affecting her feelings or anti bullying whatever but with modules in rhetoric or naturalism (philosophy) it could have been utilised to her advantage. She’s clearly quite a tactile/externally focused person in times of environment and aesthetics but then can and used to be a lot more insightful I feel/had the potential before ED. Idk. Ive had a few ciders!

more bucolic:
You’ve taught me a new word in less time than Ruby has in 4 years 🤣

Idk if I’m just interpreting this wrong but it doesn’t say she only has 2 pairs just that the other ones she owns are in the wash :LOL: So then she has to wear white ones which are not ideal.

sorry if this is wrong, English isn’t my first language!
 
Ruby might be laying low on the video front, but she's offering up more terrible/dubious book reviews on Goodreads!

Untitled897987999.jpg


It's one star for Sun Tzu's 'The Art of War'. Ruby doesn't believe there's any value in this book that she likely didn't read, even though it's still used for strategy and motivation from corporate boardrooms to sports teams.

Ruby couldn't find a way to apply the timeless, multi-purpose motivational advice found in this textbook to "modern-day conflict". By "modern-day conflict", I presume she means getting deservedly criticised by swindled customers and those she's incessantly subjecting to lies and toxic content bullied online.

Since Ruby is incapable of understanding anything more obtuse and metaphorical than a Buzzfeed listicle, here's a few quotes pulled at random and how she might apply them to her own disaster of a life:

Sun Tzu: “Be extremely subtle even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponent's fate.”

Here, Ruby, is a prime learning experience for you. To break this quote down into terms you'll understand: Say less easily-disproven lies about yourself online and your critics will have less ammunition to use against you.

Sun Tzu: "Do not repeat the tactics which have gained you one victory, but let your methods be regulated by the infinite variety of circumstances."

Let's apply this to your endless assembly line of recycled content, Rubes. When you get a million views for releasing a video that's vaguely original for your channel, the lesson to be learned is that people want to see new content - something original and surprising. The wrong tactic is to just make the same Victorian routine video 500 times and expect the same viewer count, then cry on Instagram when you don't get it.

Sun Tzu: "Treat your men as you would your own beloved sons. And they will follow you into the deepest valley."

Now, apply this to your fans. If you treat them with respect, honesty and kindness and work hard to entertain them, they'll stick with you. But if you subject them to endless triggering content, lie to them about every single thing, swindle them out of the money they spent to support your business and only provide them with the most embarrassingly lazy, amateurish content, they're not going to remain loyal for long, are they?

Sun Tzu: "Rewards for good service should not be deferred a single day."

Give back the charity money, Ruby. Do it now.

Ruby claims to have read this 273 page book in a day. Knowing Ruby, she read a paragraph, got bored and marked it 'read'.

Ruby was disappointed that a text dating back to 5th Century BC wasn't modern and relatable enough for her, but dropped a 5 star rating on outdated instructional text for archaic letter-writing techniques:

Untitled897cvb987999.jpg


This was only 26 pages long, so much more Ruby's speed. No wonder she loved it! If it contained storybook pictures and pop-up sections, this would've been her favourite book of all time.

Untitled897cvb9879fgiuoh99.jpg


And she continues skimming books for dissertation quotes. She notices superficial aesthetics above all else, but the letters are sometimes uncomfortable. Uncomfortable how? Ruby gives no examples. That's tough to do when you only flicked through the book without reading it.

Ruby gave a rating for Sun Tzu's "The Art of War"...

...and that rating was one star...

...because she thinks it's not relevant to the modern day...

o_O

Sorry, I just can't get over all three of those points! What's next, will she give the Epic of Gilgamesh only one star because it violates the typical narrative structure of the classic Victorian Gothic novel?
