I’ve never really viewed him as a cow. Chris is an example of what would happen should you decide to put a microscope under the life of anyone, present company not excluded. He is like any other person, he has less than admirable traits that flair up once in a while and his life isn’t perfect by any length. He stumbles and he has my sympathy, if anything he’s just highly autistic about Star Wars and pizza which is practically harmless as far as retarded obsessions go.

I reserve my mockery for people who don’t stumble but bowl over headfirst into every problem they can find and never learn from it. That’s essentially what a cow is, someone who never ever learns.
Wasn't he also raised by a single mother in a poverty hoarder house and the only people around him were massive shitheads like that one knife schizo and the random people who scammed him after Ian's documentary?

I don't think Airsoft Fatty had a chance of being a big success, but given other circumstances he'd probably be an ok Walmart manager with a modest family probably.

I just wish he wore a fucking shirt, man.

Whatever one might say of Chris, he's able to laugh at himself and take a joke. He literally calls himself "Airsoft Fatty". It puts him miles above people like Sylvia or Mrs. Jomha.
 
As i'm watching right now Letty has put her vomit-stained socks in Sylvia's pyjamas and pillow case. She said the crew said they couldn't use piss or shit against each other anymore, "but they didn't say anything about vomit, blood, cum or spit, so i've got a few weapons left". She's saying she wants to become to new hassler.

Also, somebody on /ftl/ posted this and it made me crease. Lots of people like to say the 4chan boards are completely lost, but there's still some funnies to be had over there.

I enjoyed the presence of Frank. I think is some regards, he showed a level of care for the contestants, his schtick was kind of like 'this is why you're fucked up and I'm going to bully you about it'.
I also like how he has weaponised Letty.
 
update: ben just took fatty into bedroom 2 to "confess" to being an alcoholic and begging chris to help him stop drinking. chris had no idea whatsoever that he was being taken for a ride, even as ben started acting more and more deranged, pretending to cry and being literally paralyzed from alcohol withdrawal

ben then immediately went downstairs and poured himself a cup of straight liquor to take to the basement when chris wasn't there

chris might be the most suggestible person i've ever seen, he's perfect for this show.

Agreed, Frank dropped legit advice here and there. This partially led to Letty Hassle.

He told Letty very clearly that no one in that house is her friend, including the crew.
He told Vance his whole schtick is gay and how to fix it.
He told Sylvia people fuck with her due to her short fuse.
He advised Airsoftfatty even though he called him retarded every day behind his back.

I don't remember if he did anything for Josie but she's a bit exceptional and doesn't need advice to get through things so far.

After Ben's talk with Fatty, Fatty said he would put on his shoes and go talk to the basement guys for Ben about the drinking. Shoes. But not a shirt.

Anyway, I mentioned this a few times but we have reached a point where the remaining fish won't leave on their own. I really want to know how they're planning on doing eliminations going forward. We haven't seen a single real elimination yet, this late into the game! So there isn't any expectation set up.

I can't see them ever setting up a situation where Sylvia or Letty or even Vance could stay over Josie, so its not going to be anything strictly competitive. Unless it is something they can heavily swing to Josie's advantage. If it is strictly a popularity contest then votes show Josie followed by Vance... but I hold out hope they won't do it this way directly. I think theyll do it indirectly. I also think they are willing to kick Vance at this point despite being 2nd in popularity.

I'm suspecting they might give chat some kind of choice (or even illusion of choice like all the polls have been lol), where they vote which fish did __ best or worst in a challenge or overall throughout the show, and then the two finalists from the votes are voted on by Sam/Jet. That way if there is a situation where like Letty fails but failed with Sylvia, they can kick Sylvia since they favor Letty over her. Or if Josie fails with Vance, they can kick Vance because god forbid.

My retarded thoughts anyway. Not how I want it to go. If Jet/Sam have posted elsewhere about it then let me know since I have zero social media for it. But I get the impression that each day, they wake up and decide what is going to happen more than any planning.

I seriously hope they start actually fucking with them instead of it being a daycare for retards with few reddit tier wholesome pranks per day. Even if it's biased, it will be infinitely better than this. The chaos with Frank around was fun, not even a day after he left we got... A discord-tier serious RP about being a family. It made me tune out from the amount of cringe. Recently the house is pretty much just Chris talking about random bullshit. What's the appeal? If i wanted to listen to some random bullshit, I would put on some youtube video and it would be actually informational and interesting...
 
It is with a heavy heart that I share this news.
Chris has been told that he can no longer sing copyrighted songs and to limit his singing to 1 or 2 times a day.

I understand Fishtank fans may be disappointed but the new network came down on this hard.
 
I wish there was a fishtoy where you could pay to send a shark to splatter Sylvias head open with a manhole cover
I actually had a dream I left another comment similar to this last night and got banned and a comment on my profile from Null saying he was sending my information to the police because it was the most fucked up thing he's ever read

Producers are confused and have no idea what kind of show this is supposed to be anymore. And it feels like theyve given up on trying to sort it out. The audience is also confused and has been forced to split into a few camps. My observations:

Some want the heckin wholesome friendship and character development/zoomer recovery simulator.
Some want it to be the promised hell house (with bullying and shark harassment or bullying and body fluid-tier shenanigans).
Some want it to be more reality-game show (scheming, plotting, challenges and eliminations).

Most want some combination of the above but producers are dropping the ball on all three. Everything feels so lazy. I get the fish sleep because bored/hungover/depressed/lazy. But the production, it feels like they never sit down and brainstorm and pitch ideas at each other. They must, but it doesnt show. It feels really half-ass. They come up with something then let it flounder out with no follow up plan or care. Then fish do nothing for hours until the next thing. And the things can be fun or good ideas they just drop the ball on execution or following it through to the end. Like they get an idea and rush upstairs immediately Fred Flinstone style to do it instead of fleshing it out and thinking "how can we make this entertaining for more than an hour? how do we close it out? what if fish arent taking it seriously, how do we enforce rules? how can we change up the rules quickly? what can we change on the fly if the fish flop and chat is bored?" That kind of stuff.

another faggot tldr post again, i am sorry/youre welcome
 
They should have had stricter rules when it comes to eliminations and challenge. Preferably even communicate them to the audience. The structure would give them consistency and streamline the whole processes a bit as well. This would also help with the trust issues they are experiencing with some of their audience.
 
I'm still following this, but not as avidly since they really leaned into the poopoo peepee grossout shock humor. I literally get enough of that shit at work, retards smearing their shit in places just isn't fun watching when you already dealt with it firsthand several hours earlier. The freeloaders have been hit or miss. Simon was good until they broke him with gaslighting, and Chris just doesn't have that frisson of high energy chaos Jon had. Frank Hassle should stick to bothering retirees and washed-up e-celebs with his shtick.

I'm not holding out hopes for a satisfying conclusion to the madness.

That's why I basically tapped out at this point, it's a complete mess now and either the crew are worrying about the legal shit now (most likely) or they got enough money out of the project. It's Day 28, the final day of the fourth week and I don't think they will do a elimination now. It's pretty confusing and gives the impression that the crew has no direction and clue what to do now and are just winging it. To be fair, it's their first project in this "genre" of entertainment and didn't expect how dynamic the whole thing is.
But the eliminations should carry on as planned and the stakes should be raised. If there's no real incentive to be there (10k with some fishbucks, for that amount of insane shit?) and the rules not being clear-cut, the contestants won't bother. Letty was very close to leaving in the past days, even with a possible lolsuit on the horizon. Speaking of those, Damiel and Frank were the biggest offenders and laid the foundation for it. Frank was funny, but he fucked up and crossed a line. Damiel was a faggot and chimped out for no reason >muh shoez and did destroy Letty's property. I really wouldn't want to be in the crew's shoes right now.
There's still cope hope that the next two weeks will provide content, but the kind of "I don't know what's going to happen on this show" is not the good one.

My prediction is that Letty and Josie will be the finalists (if the eliminations still happen) and Josie will win because of popularity. (read: the subhuman simps)
 
I think the lawsuit talk is bullshit. None of these people had money prior to fishtank, and certainly won't have shit for it after, but my point is, no one brought anything with them to the show with any real monetary value, possessions being destroyed would only result in a small claims case being made and settled more than likely before they leave the shows premises with a check and a contract to prevent further suits.

I have a feeling it will go to either Josie or Letty, sylvie fucked herself when she said she'd use it to help a friend transition. Vance would have to come out with something way over the top to manage a win at this point.

What are the odds this ends when they stated or are they going to extend it due to "technical difficulties," and a few more bucks.

Just glad to be back interacting with you guys here regardless.

That reminded me that sometime last night Sylvia was telling a story about how she tried being a lesbian once...but it was with a tranny. Sylvia is unreal.
