So I picked up Starship Repo from a thrift store, and I come with my thoughts on the first two chapters.
So how bad is it? If you are a total moron without the capacity for critical thought, it's not too bad. The first chapters are, at least, readable. If you care about character development, world-building, continuity, logical thought, jokes that pan out, or being clever and witty instead of just assuming one is clever and witty, it's just awful.
So Fat's first, biggest joke that I'm sure makes him prouder than anything else in this book is the clerical error that ends up with his character being renamed Firstname Lastname. I will admit, that as a set-up for a joke, this isn't bad. You could have funny jokes based off of someone being documented as named Firstname Lastname. The problem here is in execution. Fat doesn't know what to do with the joke. He doesn't understand how a human would react in that situation, so he's unable to do anything clever with it. The way he plays it is as if the clerical error rewrote reality. The character is shown as incapable of introducing herself as anything other than First. She isn't able to think of herself by her real name. The backstory suggests she lived most of her life before this error happened, so she's not going to just believe that she has no choice but to be FirstName. The misnomer is the premise for the joke, the execution of the joke would be how people - realistic people - interact with that premise. Pat doesn't get past the premise, and it's annoying.
To make things worse, if he wants to go through the book calling her Firstname and having her accept it as a reasonable thing to call her, there are ways to do that. She could have been adopted by aliens, who read the form and assumed her name was already filled in. She could have grown up being called First, and only realized what it meant when she learned English. A little thought could have made it merely eye-rolling instead of stupid.

So Fat likes his pop culture references. Within the span of two pages, we get Star Wars, the Cleveland Browns, and McDonalds. For all that Fat says he's too high class for McDonalds, he somehow manages to spend four pages talking about it - in a space station that has one human on it. Fat likes to say that Star Wars is as timeless as Shakespeare and will therefore remain relevant forever, but there's a difference between having Captain Picard quoting Shakespeare and having Pat randomly reference Star Wars. Star Wars is fiction in the same genre as his book. Reminding people that science fiction is indeed fiction is going to break the fourth wall, which is not what you want to do three pages into your book. You're still creating buy-in for your audience. Now's not the time to challenge that.
Going further, he's got his excuse for Star Wars, but what's his excuse for the Cleveland Browns? The character making the reference didn't even live on Earth. Even presuming that the sport in question continues to have popularity that far into the future, a seventeen year old girl is not going to be invested enough in an underperforming team on a different planet to have that be a go-to reference for her.
In chapter two, Fat has First go to a restaurant, only to find that the line is very long due to he fact that they're filming a reality tv show at the restaurant. While not a reference to a specific IP, it's another case of Fat taking modern pop-culture and simply transplanting it into an alien future. I think Fat assumes this is a joke, but it's just like the protag's name - it's a premise in search of a joke. Fat assumes the reader is going to go, 'Hey, that's reality tv, just like we have today, only in space! Isn't that hilarious?' but the truth is, there isn't a joke there. It's a reference. In order to turn it into a joke, there would have to be some build-up and then a punch line.
He also references 'leveling up' and scoring low on initiative, because he wants us all to know that he's so hip that he gets that whole RPG lingo.

I shall simply transcribe this portion and leave the commentary to you, my dear readers...
Again, presented for your commentary:
In order to have an immersive, believable experience reading a story, the author must provide enough details about the world for the reader to understand the likely consequences of actions and therefore the stakes. In the hands of a skillful author, even details that might seem to be just for color (think the details about meals & all the silly songs in the Hobbit & LoTR) act as tools to help the reader connect with the protagonists. To take the example of LoTR, chapters are spent detailing the Shire, the low-stakes, high-comfort environment that Frodo has lived his life in. That location has no bearing on the rest of the plot, the people from there do not interact any further save at the very end, but the details Tolkien provided help us understand the emotional weight behind the obstacles Frodo and the others face, and let us know the greatness of character they achieve in overcoming them. A ranger well-used to going without food will be familiar with the scenario that Frodo and Sam found themselves in when they were running down to the last of their lambas, and will already be fortified against hunger. Hobbits well-used to eating seven meals a day are going to have a totally different experience, and understanding that helps the reader connect with them and appreciate the lengths they go to keep moving forward.
That said, when an author throws in bits of color that serve no purpose, it dilutes the tension, diffuses the stakes, and leaves the reader not knowing what to care about when it's presented.
Let's take the opening scene of Starship Repo. We're first presented with a clerical error that results in the protag being misnamed. There seems to be no pay-off from this fact. Then, the protag is told she has two weeks (17 days) for her temporary visa. Chapter two starts six months later. The unnecessary detail about the temp visa has had absolutely no affect on the character. Whatever paperwork or actions were involved to handle that problem happened without impact on the character or the plot. Fat could have skipped that detail altogether and it would have had no impact on the story. Including it made us wonder how she was going to overcome the hurdle, and then left us with nothing when the hurdle vanished from the track. The oddity of having two weeks with an odd number of days was explained briefly as being due to Hole Day, with the comment that learning about that would give her something to look forward to. Six months later, it hasn't mattered in the slightest. If it suddenly matters six months and two weeks later, that's going to be stupid.
Fat likes to include silly surface level things to make you go, 'OMG, Aliens!' but his world-building is indistinguishable from any modern-day American city. There's a McDonalds. An alien's wallet has an expired gym membership and a dry-cleaning ticket and some alien porn pics. Aliens even have wallets. There are cars (flying cars, but again, that's surface level different), people walk around the block (on a space-station...), there are sky-scrapers, there's pointless government bureaucracy... Adding a few 'oh, yuck, alien, isn't that silly' details doesn't transport us to a different environment. Fat's imagination doesn't get him out of his hometown, it's not going to take the reader anywhere else, either.

- First cannot do paperwork to the point that she fails to properly transcribe her name.
- First is forging an identity as a refugee. Instead of coming up with an explanation for why she's a refugee that could pass even the briefest examination, she puts 'The Cleveland Browns' down as the disaster she is fleeing. The only way that would work is through the sheer incompetence of the bureaucrats dealing with her paperwork. She is so dumb, she makes the rest of the world dumb around her.
- First is a pickpocket. The first person she pickpockets is the alien she talks to arriving through customs. She pickpockets a government official who got an incredibly good look at her face, and will absolutely remember her because she is the only human on the space station.
- Once she realizes that the wallet has an incredibly valuable security access card, she takes the card and drops the wallet on the floor, out in the open, in the middle of the station. This world must not have security cameras, DNA analyzers, or fingerprint dusting. We have here another case of the protagonist being so stupid that she makes the rest of the world stupid along with her. An even slightly competent thief would at least try to destroy evidence that could link them to a crime. She didn't even try to wipe her fingerprints off the wallet. She deserves to rot in prison forever for subjecting me to this much stupidity.
Fat clearly has trouble taking an idea and thinking through it in a way that tests it against reality, and it leads to some ridiculous outcomes.
First stole a security access card. After the unnecessary 6 month jump, the security card is still active and she's still able to use it. At least it's not her stupidity breaking the world and making the universe more stupid around her, but Fat seems to think that pointing out how outrageously lucky this is is as good as explaining how she got that lucky. No, Fat. That doesn't work. Even if the employee didn't want to admit that it was lost/stolen, he would have needed a new card. In any remotely competent organization, that would have included deactivating the old card. Or having a team of officers descend on wherever the card gets used to arrest the perpetrator. But no, the card just still works. For reasons.
In chapter one, First thinks that she's going to sell that card for mucho denero. In chapter two, she's still got it with no explanation of why she changed her mind about her original plans. Fat, you idiot - you didn't have to make her think she wanted to sell it. She could have just realized it would be useful to use from the get-go, and then she'd come across as a better planner and more organized person than she does when she's thinking two different things a couple pages apart.
First has a day job doing the shell game thing. Again, her existence demands the whole world around her become stupid, because aliens in this book are so credulous that they can't figure out how the game works. Fat does say that one alien with x-ray vision saw through the trick, but then he says that First was able to bribe the alien to stay silent, while threatening to space it if it told anyone. This only compounds the already mind-numbing stupidity. How on earth did that interaction between First and the x-ray alien go? Didn't it react when it saw her doing the trick? Isn't that how she knows it knows? If it saw her doing the trick, wouldn't that have been in public? And wouldn't it have reacted right away, in public? And wouldn't the crowd (Fat says there's an hours long line) have witnessed the conversation? How does she get away with bribing and threatening the whistleblower in public, in front of the audience she wants to keep in the dark about her slight-of-hand scam? Wouldn't she have had to bribe/threaten everyone within hearing? This is a prime example of Fat not being able to think past his premise to the logical outcome. He is absolutely a short-bus rider.
The story is set on a space station - one that rotates around a central axis to provide some amount of gravity. In the central area of this station, closest to that axis, there is an open air area, complete with neighborhoods, hundred-story tall skyscrapers, and room for flying cars to soar around and have lots of parking structures. On a space station...
Now Fat hasn't provided many details about the size/nature of this station, he's been too busy telling us how the menu of McDonald's hasn't changed over four hundred years, billions of lightyears, and hundreds to thousands of different cultures. But if this story is going for any sort of realism, an open air city with skyscrapers in the center of a spinning ship is just mind-breakingly stupid. Wouldn't the top of the sky scrapers be fairly close to the center, where they'd be spinning quite fast? Wouldn't that be an unpleasant experience? If it's big enough that the size and distance compensate for that unfortunate fact, then how on earth did such a massive space station come into being and how does it financially support itself? The sheer amount of material that would be needed to construct a station that size would be prohibitive. It would be cheaper to find a large asteroid or small moon and use that as a base - you'd at least save money on needing refined metal or some sort of plastic for every single support structure and surface.
The space station issue goes back to Fat's problem with world-building. There isn't a single scene that feels like it's in a space station. The bit with the skyscrapers and the flying cars feels 100% as if it's outdoors in some planetary environment. It prevents the reader from achieving immersion in the world, because what's being shown to us about the world doesn't match what we're being told.

To celebrate the anniversary of Pat's first twitter banning (Norm/11), someone on the other forums released a phone interview that Pat did with a TOTALLY REAL HuffPo reporter. To everyone that has been following along with the thread and have seen how much Pat threatens and belittles people, you are about to meet victim Pat at his most deranged.
I'm only about 25mins in, but every second so far has been gold. I'll update as I listen.
- Pat states that his cyber-stalkers have said that he cheats on his wife, threatened his child (never happened), and that they obsessively scour the internet so they can 'harvest their next victim'.
- Pat mentions the fake vandalism and emails from his idiotic lawsuit, leaves out all his threats and bad behavior on twitter, and calls everyone who makes fun of him on the internet a sociopath. Lists the book reviews and alleged targeting of other SFWA members as 'deranged behavior.'
- Brings up the swatting that never happened, says that everyone who talks about him on the internet has a 'clinical obsession with him.'
- Pat bashes law enforcement at every level, although also states that they are essentially powerless to go after people on forums who are behind vpns. FBI apparently told Pat that they'd investigate his stalkers if they stole over $250k, or if someone gets killed.
- On his detractors - "Everything they want is death, for me to kill myself. It's their ultimate fantasy."
- Brings up the Farms, calls us a "community of cyber-terrorists", "keeps a kill count", and of course he brings up the Byuu/near nonsense.
- Admits his lawyers told him that his lawsuit would be 'an uphill battle'. Says the stalkers harass his lawyers, order fake food orders to their houses and other nonsense allegations that never happened.
- Pat is closing in on $100k in legal expenses, stresses that this amount is a remark that he would definitely like to be 'off the record'. Pat also admits that there is a real possibility that 'if the judges can't pull their heads out of their asses', he'll owe $17K to Quasi (admin of OnA forums). "I'm going to have to pay him (Quasi) for the privilege of running a website with the aim of me killing myself."
- Fair amount of trashing of Judge Stein, the CA judge. "He doesn't know dick about the internet, doesn't know anything." Not sure if this is a good legal move.
- If unsuccessful in his lawsuit, Pat states that he would want to appeal, but the money side of it might discourage him from doing so.
- Says every one of his detractors are men aged 25-45, all white, all white supremacists, love power and "are trying to get back at me for taking away their reddit."
- Tinfoil theory raised by Pat - "definitely possible the legal defense (of Quasi) is being bankrolled by somebody", lists 'alt-right organizations' as potential bank-rollers. However, says he has no evidence for this.
- Pat says that the Biden Justice Department promised to come down harder on cyber-stalking and cyber-terrorists, but they're busy with the Trump insurrectionists. "I'm hoping they'll do something."
- Pat is asked if he could go back in time 3 years would he do anything differently. Pat's answer: "I would not do anything differently, wouldn't change one tweet."
- Pat finished with a plea for the 'reporter' to keep the financial figures from the lawsuit under-wraps. 'Reporter' gives his word that nothing will be released.
- @Null gets a mention when Pat asks 'reporter' how the focus on his story started. 'Reporter' says it was the Byuu "suicide" that got the HuffPo looking into Pat's story.
- Pat thanks the 'reporter' and hangs up, 'reporter' calls Pat a rude name.
And that's the end of it. It's 54 minutes long so I left a lot out of my summary. If you're someone who is following along with the thread or just the lawsuit, this is definitely worth a listen IMO. KiwiFarms bashing starts at 28:30, Null mention is around 51:40.
EDIT: Should also add that the obvious part 1 in the title means that more may follow. The guy who posted the interview used a throwaway account that has not posted before, so not sure if this is an ongoing bit or not. For anyone who is confused, the reporter is fake (obv not from HuffPo), but the interview is real, that is definitely Pat that is being interviewed.
EDIT 2: Pat has apparently filed a privacy complaint against the video, forcing the uploader to blur many features of the image. Given his tendency to relentlessly DMCA anything unflattering of him, Pat will probably succeed in getting the vid taken down soon. I've uploaded the original, unblurred copy here. If this gets taken down too PM me and I'll reupload it somewhere else.

So what's the over/under on the real reason why Fat doesn't want the amount he's spent on the lawsuit getting out being that he hasn't yet told his wife how much he's really spending?

I find it intriguing that someone as smart as Pat thinks he is doesn't realize that if he just went quiet, all of this shit would go away after a time. He could just continue to write books and live his life. I assuming that he literally can't do it, like he is addicted to being an angry democrat on twitter or something. He physically cannot bring himself to stop fueling the fire that is burning him alive.

I wonder if divulging the intimacies of an ongoing lawsuit, sabotaging it entirely and shit talking the judges involved - to a reporter who you don’t even verify is real - is a good thing for his case?
I also suspect it’s probably great for his lawyers that he replies to absolutely every single person who messages him with death threats.

I think assuming Rick cares about the money is a mistake, he's just a petty bully trying to get back at people who made fun of him.

The culture war legitimized his existing way of thinking where disagreeing makes you an enemy.
Maybe a more organized brotherman kept a link, there were a few posts on a model building forum from like 2010 when he was just an insurance salesman in Bumfuck, FL and it's the same fucking pattern. "P@T" comes in expecting pure praise & adoration, angrily rejects the opportunity to actually learn something and instantly turns all these retired boomers against him. He was broken from the start, before he had a thread here, before the OnA sub found him.
Gives you a clue why his pregnant wife left and also why he's gluing giants beds into his lil' spaceships.
"Your daughter bukkaked by a circle of n-words" might've been aimed at Big Niki's sweaty forehead, plaintiff's lesbian wife. So many rib-shattering quotes there, repeated by this marblemouth idiot himself.
Merry 9/11 everyone, hope St. Mel left a treat in your jacuzzis.

I love how someone who claims to be an intelligent person just got tricked into revealing personal information the same way that Chris Chan would in the mid 00's. Rick cannot stop losing.

This interview might be one of the best cow events of the year.

He does look like he's on the spectrum so that would explain things.

That's why he's a lolcow. He's terminally unable to not engage with the trolls and gained himself nothing for it except three years of having to come up with a fresh reply to every troll's post and getting bologna thrown on his doorstep. Pat Rick might be one of the absolute worst at not feeding the trolls since he has some bizarre compulsion to give a snappy reply to every post. Like even CWC learned to stop engaging with the most obvious trolls, but even the slightest post making fun of Rick will earn you a reply, every single time. I think it's related to his internet tough guy behavior where he feels compelled to correct everyone and everything that insults his honor.
If he were like any other Twitter NPC and just occasionally whined about those damn dirty NAHTZEE trolls in his mentions, he'd be much, much better off. Like how sad is that when Pat Rick being a terminally addicted Twitter politisperg is a step up from his current situation.
Nah, it just means he gets to pay his lawyer an extra few hundred to argue why what Rick said in the video is inadmissible and also remind the court he has a gullible, naive idiot for a client. But what's another 500 bucks when you're already almost 100K in the hole?
James done did it

Ricky is just a higher functioning Chris Chan tbh, has been all along
-Obese
-Narcissistic
-Trump deranged
-plays with children's toys into middle age
-makes really shitty art
-has a government tugboat
-has cringeworthy hilarious legal antics
the only major difference is Chris trooned out while Rick got cuckolded and had his parental rights terminated, fat also didn't fuck his mom, to his credit.
I really do like how hard he projects in this interview though, really, what kind of guy has $17,000 just sitting around to quash a subpoena? Is he implying he didn't have $100,000 sitting around to file a lolsuit?

Pat took a totally coincidental 15 hour break from twitter today. His first tweet back was fighting with a 9/11 truther:
Imagine calling someone else stupid after you were tricked into an hour long interview where you revealed that you're over $100k in debt from filing the silliest lawsuit in internet history, all while shitting on the judge that will decide your case.
The rest of his tweets are pretty random and uninteresting.
One of the most telling stories Pat ever told about his upbringing was that his mother always told him "Don't let the idiots win." Pat said his mother pinned this statement on the fridge and it became the family motto - which certainly explains his inability to pick his battles. Pat's mother was a school psychologist who raised her son to believe that he was special, she was likely trained in the whole 'positive psychology' fad, and has a lot to answer for regarding Pat's internet footprint.
