Special snowflake if ever I encountered one. Blocked me on Twitter after she posted a comment about British jobs going to British people, to which I asked which country her Topshop jeans were made in. Hardly inflammatory, more inviting discussion. Her Times columns have taken on a new vibe since being blocked for a seemingly innocent observation. I have her books and until recently bought The Times Saturday for her musings. Since the Twitter block I've come to the conclusion that Caitlin Moran is an attention seeking, self-publicising dolt. Her name isn't even Caitlin, it's Catherine, and she says her version of the pronunciation of Caitlin is 'cat lin', not 'cayt lin' as most of us know. Look at me, look how different I am.
I'm going to get flamed for this but she can be summed up by the sentence 'I grew up on a council estate in Wolverhampton and was home educated, moved to London, got lucky in writing bile for a music magazine, got luckier in attracting the interest of a bloke who I make a career out of extolling the virtues of his ineptitude as a human, and I am better than you because I am a council girl done good who writes for a right wing newspaper, so up the bum to you'.
