Thanks,
@Brit Nips for the clip RE: FFG's lack of a degree (and to everyone for the informative responses)! At this point, I just assume whatever story FFG tells about herself must be considered in light of what she's trying to say about Chantal, ha ha.
Chantal doesn't work, and when she did, she was a terrible employee. FFG is the hardest worker at the
Flashdance factory and was rewarded with steel-like limbs and her treasured nickname of "Little Boy Butt." Chantal threw away her educational opportunities, so FFG was making it happen while still working! Chantal is lazy -- FFG is the star of her own "Hey Mon" sketch. (And not just Chantal -- some of that business with all her jobs was also in response to criticism from Ron/Negz, but I'm hazy on the details, for now).
As for the accounting? FFG claims to have failed math every year of secondary school. FFG also claims (and I believe her) to smoke herself unconscious every night and at some point to have been drinking aquarium tanks' worth of alcohol. I'm not sure she'd be an ideal candidate for accounting. Allegedly, however, her ex Mourad was.
Which makes me wonder what FFG would have "gone back to school for" had her ex picked a different career path. What if Mourad had been an anthropologist, an actuary, an imam? (Or doctor, lawyer, Indian chief?)
So I'll just throw my schizo theories on the table (I recommend pairing them with lithium):
(1) FFG doesn't have a day job (and hasn't for a long time -- she doesn't typically stream during the day bc (i) Yaba time, (ii) unconscious)
(2) FFG doesn't have a man (
NB: As I recall, Shannon never
met Mr. FFG -- she was shown a
picture) and may never have -- what she needed was the anti-Nader, then the anti-Salah;
(3) FFG's relationship with her abusive ex Mourad was a "marriage of convenience," and when the contract came to an end (or nullified), he left;
(4) FFG's obsession with owning a house is more about her first ex and the house he allegedly bought than anything else (even more than sticking it to Chantal);
(5) FFG, despite her super chat bonanzas, has very little to show for it (I think she's as terrible with money as Chantal but masquerades as being practical/frugal/thrifty -- there's some interesting streams with Just Sayin' concerning FFG's shopping habits);
(6) FFG is not Jewish (credit:
@StrawberryDouche) -- she adopted it bc of accusations of antisemitism (need to take another listen to Clara's/DC Media Girl's recent livestream -- that portion got overshadowed by the Tragic talk)
