@Contraryjane loads of followers, no interaction = purchased followers. Her 45 minute social media training is unnecessarily long to share a strategy which is basically post everything, never have any downtime and buy followers. It's a shame people joining her course (if anyone has) doesn't examine more closely just how well this is working for her.

She apparently only has 4 spaces left on her social media training course on Monday
which is online and surely could take hundreds

Norma27 · 10/10/2024 11:35

And costs £29.99!

Contraryjane · 10/10/2024 11:56

Well, she clearly has nothing to do all day except do her hair, put the slap on,
mess around with gold leaf and scribble in a notebook.

Did anyone listen to fierces horrible live a couple of days ago with some bullshit story about plane tickets? Basically stating that you should always do something without giving it a second thought as that’s your superior woo brain knowing it’s the right thing to do. Of course straight after the story she says just sign up to my course and don’t think about it. She is so corrupt and really is an evil witch.

MrsDilligaf · 10/10/2024 17:59

I'm keeping a very close eye on a new and emerging scam...apparently I could make at least $2,000 dollars a month but I have to jump in NOW!!

Not gonna lie, I am incredibly tempted to sign up, recruit all the bots and sit back and watch...

obviously I won't

I've never read so much self indulgent clap trap in all my life, she's doing things that make HER happy, I'm sure Mr Yawn would be happy if she stopped dicking around with pretend businesses and get a bloody job, that Directors loan isn't going away and neither is the mouldy rotting thatch, talk about being in total denial about your situation.

Sugarplum48 · 10/10/2024 18:27

No fear, found the clap trap post. My god she's a full on nutjob now. From fake texts from a random stranger who apparently owns a inflatables company to magical woo occurring as she's chopping salad. Have a day of you loon. The 1 or 3 likes you got speaks volumes. Utter nonsense rubbish

Nurse has been taken in by the Young Writers scam (not legit in my opinion).

Another example of her naivety.

Maybe they could "publish" her book when/if she eventually finishes it? 😆

yes she’s so gullible

het son’s piece has been ‘accepted’

of course it bloody has. You wil be buying 10 copies won’t you 🙄

Re Nurse, I haven’t looked at her Insta for a while but it was heartening to hear her say that she really likes her new job and to confess to how resistant she was to going back into nursing last year. I really hope this job allows her to drop the coaching and MLM for good and put some real distance between her and that world. However, falling for the Young Writers Scam shows how vulnerable she is, not that she is the first to fall for it and she won’t be the last, but she doesn’t have a sceptical bone in her body which is a shame because a bit of googling would have revealed all her recent “investments” as bad ideas. She is a sitting duck for the next scam that comes along. I think all these Lives, broadcasting to no one are a sign of loneliness. The more she invests in her job and real off-line life the better her chances of being inoculated against people like Yawn and the coaching academy and the idea of an easy path to the scammers’ definition of success.

Castle has an ‘inner circle platinum club’

I'm sure Yawn would like to create tiers in her Desperate Girl club so she can rinse an extra few quid a month out of her fans

introduce a gold club first for an extra 20 quid then a platinum one then one that leaves you outside near the bins (Frasier reference for those who watched it)

YouOKHun · 10/10/2024 21:17

I’m glad the Buddha was mentioned here first as I genuinely couldn’t decipher (visually) what on earth it was. She says she has finished the upcycling of the Buddha so was the blue and gold blob on the kitchen worktop the finished article?

Yawn should never EVER have another “magical day of self obsession care” again if the outcome is a Buddha that even The Range would refuse to sell and some vomitous online graphic that is the mutant love child of a Mills & Boon cover and Kay’s catalogue art. On this “random day of nothing booked in” but almost constant posting (the usual day then) she has managed to eat two meals, stuck some rocks in her underwear, played with her dogs, watched some TV, put on some fake tan. All fine but actually nothing very special. Has she considered that the secret to true happiness probably lies in doing all that if you wish but without the need to go online to share it. Is any of it of value to her if it isn’t shared?

If the Buddha is now her ornament of choice she ought to know what he’s got to say about anger which might benefit her - holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.

Guru Yawn’s “Soul on fleek” post, which shows her heavily photoshopped image, complete with a thigh gap bathed in a halo of light, is something else. It’s a miracle she hasn’t reproduced it in stained glass, with a touch of Frenchic and a squittering of gold leaf.

If Guru Yawn really wants to have a spiritual awakening, she could follow Julian of Norwich’s example by quietly getting on with it, with no need for payment or adoration. She could ask Mr Acolyte Yawn to brick her up in a cell in The Thatch, leaving a hole big enough to receive food, water and a bucket, and big enough for her to pass on spiritual guidance to those making a pilgrimage to The Thatch (such as bailiffs). To solve the problem of waiting for planning permission, Guru Yawn could simply wheel out the bot potty, ask Mr Yawn to glue the door shut with her inside, leaving a small hole in the wall big enough to receive food and drink (no need for a bucket because the bot potty is already well appointed in that respect). She can meditate on her spiritual throne all day and night, and if people want spiritual guidance, they can visit her. I imagine the motorway and the country lanes near the Thatch will be gridlocked in no time. 😉

YouOKHun · 10/10/2024 21:24

It’s strange isn’t it @Spongebobette how everything these bots do always ends up with layers/levels/sub-groups hidden from view that the followers must pay to join. It’s almost as if they can’t think outside the pyramid. I wish they’d come up with some new names for them instead of the usual precious metal or gem.

What would Yawn’s levels of participation be called?

OP posts:
YouOKHun · 10/10/2024 21:40

The motorway and the country lanes will be gridlocked with all the people queuing up to do the bricking up @BSintolerant 🤣😆 with not one of those eager volunteers prepared to leave a small hole in the wall.

“Oi BSIntolerant is there any mortar left in that bucket as this hole in the brickwork REALLY needs closing up”.

“No, I’m afraid not YouOKHun. I used the last of it to make Mr Yawn a backbone but I did find this blue and gold object and it is a perfect fit to stop up that unnecessary and unwise hole”.

I’m waiting to see if the northern lights are interpreted by Yawn as some sort of magical sign that she’s destined for greatness

castle’s “worldwide” accounts are in courtesy of that trusty accountancy firm based in a Midlands spa town.
