Ruby Granger #36 Pumpkin Bread Activity

[gossip_guy]

If she wants to play waitress, maybe she should get a full time job as one.

It's not even that she's acting like a 6 year old, it's that she has absolutely no issue with filming this wreck and putting it on the internet for everyone to see. She sees nothing wrong with the way she spends her life she's and proud to beg for praise for it. Wtf.

If she were doing this shit because she got enjoyment out of it, it'd still be embarrassing as hell, but I guess at least she'd be doing something she finds fun for a change in a life of miserable emptiness, fakery and forced grimaces for the camera.

Instead, she included this cringeworthy clip of her playing childish games of make-believe for no other reason than to include undeclared ads for her gifted Grind coffee machine, her gifted Grind coffee and her gifted food substitute powder. She thought people were too stupid to see through this and she was stupid enough to think her baby barista nonsense would wow her fans.

And the funny thing is, she could've tweaked this slightly to fit her brand. She could've made an "ass-tattic" chalkboard shopping list for the kitchen or something - something that served a purpose for an adult and would be vaguely useful for staying organised. Instead it's some ad-filled childish bullshit that's a step away from her playing with one of these:

 

[CatCafe234]

Her family house is an hour away from Oxford, so I doubt she'll be staying on campus. This time she'll just be expecting mummy and daddy to make 4 trips a day back and forth from uni all week to drop her off and collect her.

"This was just the most efficient way," she'll say of the chauffeur arrangement. Meanwhile Daddy Bones will get his lawyer started on the divorce papers to get the hell away from this nightmare.

Isn’t there a rule about living within 25 miles of the uni for Oxbridge? Years ago, I thought about applying for the MEd at Cambridge and one of the things that put me off was the rule about living within a specific distance of the university and I realised how much more expensive that was going to make it. Maybe it’s changed post-Covid but that seems like something Ruby maybe hasn’t thought of.

 

[Erebus]

I can't believe she actually doesn't know how to pronounce aurora borealis and doesn't care enough to look it up? English is not my native language and it's still ridiculous to me. I can't imagine not knowing something so basic in my own language and happily broadcasting it for everyone to see

 

[VallegGirl]

She also doesn't like Oliver from Five Survive because he thinks he's better than everyone and his opinion is important... I'm noticing a pattern here

I was just about to say the self same thing. Get a mirror Ruby and you'll see Oliver in it. You also come across like you think you're better than others. Crucial difference though Rubes is your unfortunate personality is real.

 

[xoxoxo13]

I wish I had time to be bored, apparently real jobs don't prioritize that. But Rhubarb is probably the assistant to the assistant to the teacher's assistant, so I guess she has loads of time to be bored.

 

[DrinaM]

I mean she was already rejected once before. It just sent her into a existential crisis lol.

Yeah but after resigning herself to studying at Exeter, I feel like she has compartmentalised the trauma of the rejection lol. And has been living in denial ever since. Its amazing how nothing has changed. Still living in her childhood bedroom, in her single bed, mummy drives her places, mispronouncing words, pretending to read a hundred books a month etc

 

[StatusWoe]

Don't forget her yellow rain hat

And the beret that looked like a chef's hat.

Well, ObViOuSlY!!

''OBVIOUSLY!'' Omg, insufferable.
---

If you have to explain it, it's bad writing. But also if she'd stylised it 'magenta-green' then the reader gets the idea that it's a hybrid of the two rather than magenta being a direct descriptor for green.

Exactly. I know what she means about buds being green + pink, but she didn't make that clear in the writing, then acts as though it's the reader's fault for not understanding. Typical Ruby.

 

[Larancia]

Only Ruby could manage to crease a paper on which she barely wrote 20 words. (See the left edge)

________________________________________________________________________

Ruby supposedly turns on airplane mod every night, as if she will be disturbed by work calls mails or she will be sought by beloved friends while working on feeling relaxed... Girl I'm pretty sure your phone doesn't rang even during the day except when Mama Bones (or maybe Daddy Bones) calls to tell dinner is ready instead of shouting from downstairs.

________________________________________________________________________

NEXT UP
Ruby makes me question the meaning of the word hygiene by suggesting drinking tea is related to hygiene

MEANWHILE Cambridge Dictionary definition; (Well I guess this explains her lack of hygiene, It's because she doesn't even know what it means)

More things not related to hygiene categorized as hygiene
1. Cover Screen (could have been related if the goal was preventing dust accumulation but Ruby clearly explains that it is to signify that she is no longer working)
2. Water (nope not to clean but to drink)
3. Hot water bottle (Yes, Ruby I agree question mark indeed, why put that on a hygiene list?)
4. Strech (srsly?)
Oh turns out 80% of this list is NOT actually related to hygiene in anyway. (Well, that explains a lot for me)

Also why not remove nail polish if its not covering your nail anymore? You should for the sake of nail health.
________________________________________________________________________

OH a space time continuity error:
Ruby's doing work (editing)

Goes down for dinner

When she goes back up stairs she quickly takes off her lenses

Then wears her glasses

WAIT GLASSES? Yes the ones she was wearing BEFORE dinner.
________________________________________________________________________

As a final note, something else that bothers me is how she tores off a paper while the back is untouched and completely blank. Just set it aside and use it for something random. Showes how small understanding she has about the real world. The way she brags about how satisfactory it was disgusts me.

 

[StatusWoe]

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

View attachment 1996179

I went to a private school for GCSEs. On my first day another pupil asked ''do you have a tennis court?'' She said it so earnestly too. Like you could tell she was trying to be friendly.

Yeah was thinking the same thing lol. Getting major smut vibes. I think its all the anatomical references and cheap writing style Things are deflating, sticky fingers, sensitive tissue, dissolving, flinching. Ewww.

Ruby, I'm sorry for ever comparing you to Margaret Thatcher. I now see you have more in common with Nadine Dorries.

Quietly waiting here for the Tattle thread to explode when Ruby announces her Master's plan for the coming academic year...

View attachment 1996428

You might be waiting a while. We're still talking about skiing goggles and *checks notes* deflating like an untied balloon.

 

[friendlyfire]

Is her day so full of other tasks that she has to prepare a poster in a car, during a ... what, 5 min drive? like a school kid who does their homework at the bus to school?

And the fact it was originally on her to-do list for the day before and she didn't do it!! So had to do it in her chauffeur-driven car, because she's just seeeeew busy

 

[cravencandi]

It's been a while since I've watched her videos so I don't know why I decided to watch this new one but the amount of recycled footage at the start is insane.

I've never seen anyone EVER cover their monitor when they sleep. Nor have I ever seen anyone suggest it either.

Seems rather counterproductive to turn everything off so you can start falling asleep.....then get back onto your phone a bit later.

 

[VallegGirl]

whats your favorite question ?

2b or not 2b that is the question..

 

[Griftwood]

the part i hate the most is “we should bring these things into adult life too” - i don’t need to bring playing pretend waitress into my adult life ruby, because i’ve been an actual waitress! in multiple different restaurants! she’s getting further out of touch by the day, it’s actually bonkers

Those of us who have an adult life can choose to bring playing pretend whatever into it. Roobee, however, has never had anything resembling an adult life yet.

 

[gossip_guy]

I'm thinking about if Ruby was so badly bullied in school as she makes it out to be , why on earth would she want to come back to a place with bad memories? She is just so focused on the bullying angle and pepper just defend her by saying that she was bullied. I do wonder what her old teachers (if they are still there) and her co-workers of her, not to mention the students.

Yeah, I don't believe for a second she wasn't bullied at all. She has such glorious memories of high school that she's spent every ounce of energy since trying to turn herself into a 12-year-old schoolgirl again and recapture the joys of having private school teachers who were paid to tell her she was special and gifted tell her she's special and gifted, despite her being a talentless dunce.

Her stories of being bullied have never added up and never stayed remotely consistent. It went from 'I was navar bollied, I johst have an interest in the sobject' to 'I remambered! I WAS bollied! I johst didn't realise it at the toyme! Please buy moiy bohk about me being bollied!' to 'I AWHWHEYS knew oiy was being bollied!' and from "Oiy was bollied in Yaahr SAVVAN" to "Oiy was bollied in YAAHR NOINE!" to "OIY WAS BOLLIED ALTERNATE YAAHRS THROUGHOUT HOIGH SCHOOL, BUT ONLY ON WEDNESDAYS AND FROIDAYS AND ONLY IN THE SPRINGTOIYME!" to "THEY BULLIED ME SINCE BARRTH!"

She could never provide a concrete example of anything that happened to her beyond people just not wanting to be her friend or people offering constructive criticism online, and every time she spoke about it, there were new inconsistencies and even stupider out-of-touch advice and it all sounded even less believable. There's a reason she had to delete once of those videos due to overwhelming backlash.

If she experienced bullying so severe that she made it the defining trait of her identity for several years, she wouldn't have forgotten all about it until she'd started reading lots of bullying books and decided to write her own. And she wouldn't want desperately to relive her school years or go back to spend time at the same school she was apparently tortured and tormented for years. It's all horseshit. She made it up.

Erimentha Parker was painted has her actual experiences with bullying, yet was trope-filled drivel where the bullying was so bizarre that there's zero chance it happened in reality. It also showed Erimentha/Ruby to be an insufferable, judgemental, self-absorbed, spoiled, antagonistic little shit, which Ruby painted as admirable qualities, shedding a lot of light on why nobody would want to be friends with her.

She just really loves the narrative of someone being such a gifted child prodigy that all the other children were so jealous that they bullied them for it. She's seen that in lots of simplistic kids' stories growing up and mummy likely told her how jealous everyone was whenever Ruby threw a tantrum, so she's just adopted that narrative for herself.

Oh gosh this must be the ugliest thing I’ve seen for quite some time. I don’t get it, why does she keep insisting on showing off her crafts when they turn out so badly. It’s just sad how unaware she is that she just simply sucks.

"HOW DAER YOU. You've gyot tyoo acksapt people as they are and yooo've gyot tyo be as koind as you possibly can. We can live harmoniously but ONLY if we eradicate bollying!"

Says the person who spent years demonising people who wear makeup, drink alcohol, go to parties or watch TV - the person who would go on to swindle various charities, run various scams and devote a huge part of her content to trying to pass her toxic productivity habits and eating disorder onto other people. The irony.

Write "STAND OP" and scribble a book on your wrist. Enjoy the hilarity of Ruby only showing concern for another person when she's also named Ruby. Take a shot any time she spontaneously changes outfits if you want to be in a coma this weekend.

completely obsessed with this vid & whenever it resurfaces on tattle. every time i watch it, I treat myself to a morsel of serotonin by pretending that she’s talking about herself in 3rd person. oh and “hOw DAHHR yew” lives in my head rent free

 

[DrinaM]

Her Wes Anderson era is such a fail. Instead of getting the aesthetic vibe, she comes across as extremely bratty and spoilt

Quotes -
- "I flinch at the informality of the invitation"
- "I speak French, of course, but that's only because Mum grew up in Paris"
- "I expect my cheeks are as red as cherry tomatoes in the bitter wind and I feel them with the back of my hand - my cool fingers burn against the sensitive tissue"
- "I would like to have the postman deliver my letters too but the stamp-cost is simply too high (no way could it be covered by an eleven-year-old's pocket money!)"
- "It's not that she wants to completely isolate herself from the outside world but her dissolving eyesight means that she can no longer drive and she was never a fan of buses" (Ruby please never use the word dissolve when talking about eyes)
- "Grandmama bundles herself up in a warm ski coat, the same one she wears on our annual trip to the alps"
- "Outside the wind bites at our cheeks, nipping at my nose like an excitable puppy"
- "I admit defeat and deflate like an untied balloon released from a child's sticky fingertips"
- "I was always one to meticulously stay within the lines and was even given a special certificate for it when I was in reception ... Dad framed it and hung it on the wall"

Must resist - so many possible thread titles. ‘Flinching at the informality of the invitation’, ‘She speaks French, of course’, ‘Her cool fingers burning against the sensitive tissue’, ‘Our eyesight is slowly dissolving’, ‘Deflating like an untied balloon released from a child’s sticky fingertips’ (that’s probably too long but I love that one especially), ‘She’s got a certificate for staying within the lines’.

Completely OT, but I've just listened to a Zoom lecture by Professor Margaret Bennett, organised by The Folklore Society, on Scottish nursery rhymes and street songs/games, which was absolutely brilliant. https://www.eventbrite.de/e/there-wis-a-lady-dressed-in-green-tickets-458344800637?keep_tld=1 Now I've gone and added a ton of books to my wishlist I wonder what Ruby would have made of this lecture? This should have been right up her alley. Or maybe not, given that this is about Scottish children in the 40s and 50s, not Victorian waifs in Dickens' London!
