[Griftwood]

OT I just got the grade for my first Open University course, History of Literature I (Greek and Roman literature), and I got the top grade!

Tell me you've never engaged in conversation with someone who works a full-time job without telling me.

These "I never understood why [blank]" ponderances she always comes out with are the kind of mysteries that are easily cleared up by simply asking someone, but that's hard to do when she insists on only socialising with children and fellow workshy Tories.

But to answer your question, Rubert, it's a bit like wondering why someone lets knowing they have to go for a root canal in the afternoon ruin their morning; the dread of an impending Monday morning can sully a perfectly good Sunday.

Brace yourselves, she has blessed us with another pome

I passionately hate this bullshit trend of just regular sentences turned into a "poem" because there is a line break. Looking at you Rupi Kaur.

Hitting the enter
key, here and there,
does not, in any circumstances,
make this statement
a
poem.

Not everyone gets weekends off you absolute potato. God she's irritating. She cannot grasp that not everyone likes the same things as her.

Does she also realise that for people who work Mon-Fri, their weekends aren't always their own to frolic through dead grass? They might be the only days someone can go shopping, clean, prepare for the next week of work, study if they're studying while working. Lol who am I kidding, of course Lazy Bones doesn't know those things. She doesn't rub shoulders with the inferior poors.

She doesn’t like Cathy from Wuthering Heights because she’s overly defensive and doesn’t admit her faults… the lack of self awareness is honestly kind of hilarious

"Ruby, can't help but notice you're several hours late for work, is everything okay?"
"Yahh, syo sowry, oiy...was wahhrking on planning a YEECHEEB vidyeeyow."
"A what-now?"
"A YEECHEEB vidyeeyow. Oiy've been potting it off fwore ages naow."
"Umm...what the heck is Yee-cheeb? Is that a medical thing?"
"Nyooo, Yeecheeb! Yoo knyow, it's an internat platfworm whaahr yeeu cheese videeyows to watch and than yeeu watch tham."
"And this...Yeecheeb was important enough to skip the first three hours of your shift for?"
"Oh yas, Yeecheeb is moiy wahhrk, and this is moiy traditional job, syo Yeecheeb always takes prassedant, syo oiyy johst did that and thannn had a quick cwoffee and thann oiyy lafft.."
"...It's becoming very clear, very quickly that many mistakes were made in hiring you to work in the English department."

She "works" a 3 hour day. This is not a job, this is the school doing community outreach to give a local hermit a reason to leave their dusty home for a few hours.

One of Ruby’s students has found her tiktok! Hopefully she finds tattle soon

Ruby is how an AI would imagine a British person

Reaching frightening levels of regression now folks.

All this skiing talk of Ruby's "relatable" protagonist reminds me this absolute gem:

I understand this is probably a joke but part of me hopes Marfa actually realises this
(From her tiktok of Ruby reading at the airport)

I have...questions.

Ruby: How can people not like sundays they are my favourite day of the week
This comment:

Out of curiosity I typed “Erimentha” into the Reddit search bar to see if anybody talked about it on there. I found one post, and it absolutely sums it up.

Jack Edwards will see magenta green if Ruby gets into Oxford.

- "I try to concentrate on my worksheet but her comment is not eroding quite so quickly as the Holderness Coastline"

Rubert, thy hairline
is like
the Holderness Coastline;
it erodes

I wonder if she told Oxford that she runs a local café a few afternoons a week. Tasks include writing up the menu on a chalkboard and preparing hot beverages. Still learning to froth milk.

"It's just a mistake, it's not like I do that kind of thing numerous times in every single video I ever upload. Have I mentioned that I'm very much a perfectionist?"

Tory Granger cannot understand why people feel blue on Sunday where people might need to do a shit load of prep for the week ahead during which they will work upwards of 8 hours a day.

She is also unclear on why people struggle to find time in their limited hours off work for: commute, cleaning, laundry, cooking, socialising, time with partners and/or children or extended family, going to the doctor, getting a hair cut, shopping for necessities, getting various treatments, sorting out recycling, gardening, solving conflicts with neighbours or landlords, vehicle maintenance, fixing stuff around the house, studying for a degree, reading, working out, other hobbies or just doing nothing.

Tory Granger suggests that we plan our time better by using one of her Ponkin Bread Activity planners, so that we can spare time for the joys of Solo Studying™.
