I just think it really stretched credibility with that twist starting page 420 where it turns out she's Richard Littlejohn's long-lost love child.
 
It feels like forever. Although I don't work for a living so she's probably still at page 128 or something

I don't need to check my privilege I went to Oxford :mad:


She won't fall for the same trick twice. Maybe tea at Starbucks would do it or a big wedge of cash, that always works.
What if we promised her a (non-existent) room in a swanky non-hovel?
 
I remember that disabled person thing she wrote. That was when I began to have an opinion on her which was more than "She seems okay I guess" and that opinion wasn't very positive. Something seemed off, probably because she was using it for money.

We've just had an ASDA delivery and I am legit sitting here with popcorn reading the thread. I have a deadline tomorrow ffs

Thread will still be here after your deadline, but I love you have actual popcorn :D

It would have to be in some trendy location such as NYC, Athens or Cairo. It takes a lot to get this girl out of London or London out of the girl, darling, what what *braying laugh*
 
And, as we well know, the answer is CROWDSOURCE YOUR SOLUTIONS.

To be fair, the desperate ramblings about making cushions I'll have to write in order to meet the pass criteria for this project will probably bring more to the world than the diary of a mid-twenty year old upper-middle class 'feminist' who would probably have only managed Tumblr fame was it not for the fact she realised journalism is more stable career.
 
I mentioned on another thread last week that I e-mailed Workers' Power for using "the disabled", gave them a bit of a bollocking. :)

The e-mailed me back saying they'd amended their article, and were really sorry for implying that disabled people were some sort of homogeneous group. :D

Somehow I suspect that you wouldn't get such a humble and respectful response from our Dave, especially as you're a misogynist urban dweller ;)
 
..that some sort of dig at me or genuine curiosity? :confused:

No! And also... Eh? Why would it be a dig at you, I haven't even quoted you? :D

Oh, I did quote you! Yeh, it was curiosity, I've been getting likes from 200 pages back and spotted your post init. :cool:
 
dunno, bit of a lull on atm. We need to tempt her back somehow.

I tried banning her already.

Still, maybe worth another go. Laurie Penny, you're banned from posting on this thread ever again. Don't even think of coming back here, because you can't. Ever. We don't want you here. There is no place for you on this thread. Go away.
