I will say that I don't think Jimmy is inherently a bad person. What I mean is that I don't believe Jimmy thinks about violence towards others for no reason or that he enjoys being an angry, violent person, every time he's gotten angry or violent it's been a result of someone else doing something to him. By far his biggest issue, which is backed up by his traumadumps, is people messing with him, especially when it comes to personal belongings and losing contests. He's claimed to have a history of being bullied and believing people purposefully put him down so he can't succeed (i.e. teachers). It's clear to me that this is some really deep rooted trauma and it might even give him PTSD. The severity of his anger doesn't often match the situation, where he will rage out over small contests that don't mean much or obviously possessions with little meaning (i.e. the toy phone). His rage is consistently when he thinks someone is fucking with him with bad intentions and usually it's always one small thing that pushes him over the edge i.e. he was already in a bad mood and megan verbally attacked him, Taylor throwing food at him while he's already yelling at her, Abby trying to break the one possession that hasn't yet been fucked with after a day of having all of his shit fucked with and constantly being messed with by crew and fish. These outbursts aren't random, they follow patterns. Jimmy doesn't get mad at the crew when he knows they're fucking with him because he believes it's "for the game" but when Jimmy believes the crew doxxed a friend of his (I don't remember exactly why he made this conclusion) he is very pissed and starts threatening Jet that he'll dox his family or something. I'm not trying to justify any of Jimmy's actions here but i'm just pointing out that his outbursts aren't random, they follow a pattern and that he doesn't just randomly get mad at people, there's always some internal justification for him, typically that people are trying to do bad things to him so that he should do something or at least threaten to do something even worse to prevent them from continuing to do it.

Fishtank is one of the worst places for Jimmy to be in as it's practically designed to trigger him. Jimmy is BY FAR the most fucked with fish this season, they were milking him as much as possible especially after Cole left. After TJ's small arc, every day for the crew has been "how can we fuck with Jimmy today"? Of course he would eventually break and again the crew are very lucky Jimmy didn't hit Abby, very very fucking lucky. Everyone in that situation fucked up, while it was not okay for Jimmy to do what he did I don't want people to believe that it's solely Jimmy's fault. His actions were predictable and it is entirely the crews fault for letting things escalate to that both for constantly pushing him to the edge the ENTIRE day and the seconds before it happened where 3 fucking crew members were in the room. Jimmy isn't innocent but he doesn't have outbursts out of nowhere.

You don't poke the bear then blame the bear when it attacks.

Basement's flooded, there's apparently a leak in the roof which they tried finding through the attic, red and blue flashing lights are outside

I stopped watching after watching Oliver mog TJ constantly and when I checked back a few hours later Oliver is in the doghouse, apparently from losing a beef with TJ. I then watched him drink 3 cans of zip and he started shoving his fingers down his throat trying to make himself throw up into the dog bowl.

All I can gather is that TTS has convinced him that if he does it he'll be let out of the doghouse. TJ told him at one point it wasn't true and TTS was lying but he persevered with encouragement from TTS. He tried and failed to throw up several times, seemed like he was going to give up but TTS kept convincing him to do it. Eventually he did throw up a small amount and proclaims "Icky pukers". He was not let out of the doghouse.

He's been in the house for less than 5 hours by this point.

The pics may be fake but the flood is real, extremely loud vac in the vid, be warned

The idea of the basement being chest deep flooded is funny though, that's a good bit
 
I'm glad today's quiet, and I hope tomorrow is too.
Cleaning the carpet after the people exercising complained about shit all over the weights. Anyone know what the Japanese signs say?

According to DeepL it says Junichi Kato is the best


Some youtuber

I can't see what the other one is
The other one says "cookie" ostensibly, just like the English above it. In the bar, the vertical text read "niggas in paris" until someone put blue over the "ga" sounding character.

Not sure I agree with that... I'm convinced Summer (as well as Abby/"Brittany") are manipulators.

Did you listen to the 45 min leaked mental hospital phone call with Summer?

Not that I can really blame you if you skipped it.

If you've ever dated a manipulative girl you'll recognize the pattern immediately...

During the call while she was in the mental hospital, Summer seemed like she was threatening Sam to come get her and put her back on the show.

"And I can help you or I could break you and I don't want to break you [...] Now I really need one of your men to come to the [bleep] hospital in Rhode Island. [...[ Please make the right choice."
-Summer

She also sure seemed like she was threatening suicide to get what she wanted...

Even though I might not be alive after this I still trust you. [...] Remember it was my biggest dream to be on the show? [...] If one of your men is coming please hurry I'm going to give you guys 10 more minutes. [...] This is the last time I'm going to call you I'm going to give you until 10:10. Please send one of your men to come talk to me here. Also, obviously, I don't want to die. But, What do you have to do? I only said I ever want to work for you."
-Summer

I have no idea what the heck is wrong with Summer (BPD, bipolar, histrionic, narcissistic, psychotic, whatever), but that leaked phone call left no doubt in my mind that Summer was an "on purpose" manipulator.
I've dated truly manipulative whores and I can tell the difference between that and Summer having a schizo episode. Truly manipulative people don't constantly ask "why are you doing this to me?" Or "why is this happening to me?" to the people they are trying to manipulate.
 
"Operation Jimmy Bravo" has to be one of Jet's biggest fucky wuckies this season.

After the incident with lunging at Taylor, Jimmy got a very stern talking to from Judge Goldstriker about how getting physical with girls was totally off limits. No jokes, no laughs, no wacky character.

And Jimmy actually seemed to follow that injuction pretty closely, until Jet personally gave him the green light to physically accost Nifty. If you watch the incident with Nifty again you can see that it had the makings of a dangerous spergout too even if it was much less physically violent.

So not only did it end with Nifty leaving the show, but also laid the groundwork for the attack on Abby, ultimately costing us Jimmy as well. Neptunian.

Does anyone have the Nifty final exit clip? All I know is that retard sprayed Axe on her or something.

The most unfortunate thing about Jimmy's exit was the timing because Sam just left on a comedy tour and he was keeping this whole thing aloft.

My guess is that in s1 the pressure was on for everyone working on it as they didnt know how successful they could be, so they tried real hard. I'm guessing that the crowd funding for s2 made them too laid back with everything. They already had it paid for, there wasnt any risk of loss, only profit. I was thinking that maybe Sam doing standup has meant that his attention was split too much to put in as much effort for s2 of fishtank but then I remembered that world peace 2 was getting filmed alongside s1 so idk.
I think if it was more of a gamble for them they could have delivered something a lot better than what we got.
I am really enjoying people digging up his tweets hyping this season up now that we can see how unorganised the whole thing was from the get go
 
that's fundamentally goofy, though, you're ignoring the male sense of social precarity that's fundamentally different from a female's
if you don't defend your standing by all means necessary, you're done, and if you let some trifling ho throw bread at you or break your shit, you are double done, that's how niggas find themselves gaped in prisons

a foid has value without having to provide value or prove their value, the moid is the complete opposite

this "tiny defenseless woman helpless" shit isn't something someone like Jimmy should concern himself with, it's what a trifling ho like Brit should be mindful of so they wouldn't find themselves shit testing a man on matters of their existence and then act shocked when they get a can of WHOOPASSSS

I'm just spelling out the basics of polite society that you're just too unthinking to realise, or you just don't like to think about how the sausage is made

desired behavioural results are achieved with the realistic threat of violence, are enjoyed when you don't have to apply violence to enforce them, and fall to the wayside when the threat of violence isn't real; what's the takeaway? don't set up girls to humiliate a guy who lacks the tools to deal with it in a manner that's not a yuge liability for the show (too spergy to pick a persuasion option, confined, so removing themselves from the situation isn't an option), on that note maybe don't send convicted killer nigger rapists to harass women in their bunks at night

Jimmy was content without setting him up for weird psychosexual shit tests that turn into physical stand-offs and courtyard fights because tiny frail defenseless 30lbs daughtergirls are gassed up to do so by a cabal of basement-dwelling wiggers doing whippits - all I've expressed is that everything they didn't foresee, I very well could foresee because of reasons, and Sam could too, which is why he properly shadowed Jimmy

ps: women prefer men who display a capacity for violence and have the social proof from their male peers, which itself is a selection process that includes everything from competency to violence; if they know a man is an "unloaded gun", dey don ack rite, yahurr? you finna get gaped

The way this dude writes reminds me of bitches sperging about the "patriarchy" back in the day. Similar "woe is you" psyop, but in reverse and very, very gay.


Shinji and Tai were entertaining the other day, problem seems to be that production is only able or willing to do spergery and shitty gaslighting.

I disagree, it's exactly what these types of girls would say, to manipulate you into feeling guilt. It is you who changed my emotional state, you hold responsibility and not me, tee hee.
 
Weekly "Oh god am I a retard for liking the same things as the freaks in this thread" post.
it's not that freaky, you're just missing the microcosm of that interaction for the context it exists in
humanity didn't evolve with cameras as a behaviour modifying social proxy, so we're seeing grug go caveman mode, habituated to the environment, for a moment uninhibited, and blissfully ignorant he's under the eye of onlookers aka he wilin, which, to the properly domesticated male with all their faculties, is a yuge social taboo

place the two in the wild in that same scenario and it's just a dick measuring contest initiated by someone with no dick, and the dickless one always loses

Seemingly every time Jet is gifted with a fish with tons of content potential he blows his load way too early and pushes them past their breaking point. Jimmy was just the latest example of this. The mindset of production seems to be when you get a content generating fish you need to milk them for all they are worth, to the point of them breaking. Once that happens then they start to branch out to other fish.

This isn’t exclusive to season two either. Letty was also heavily targeted because of her content making abilities, the difference was she was a bit more resilient and Sam actively encouraged her to stay on the show whenever she thought about quitting. Almost like he realized losing her would result in a major content drought.

Over reliance on fish is a huge problem I’ve been writing about in my spare time in my Fishtank manifesto. Instead of building up fish simultaneously and giving the big content makers a break, Jet insists on making them the entire focus and scaring them off. But a fish like Meg? She deserved a three hour talk to be convinced to stay. Priorities people.

I find it funny how the moment Sam leaves and puts his trust into Jet for keeping the fish from leaving Jet loses the last remaining natural content generator. Bang up job there. Obviously Sam can be criticized for fish leaving and or being eliminated, but he’s mostly more competent than Jet.
 
Challenge idea: "Which of these headlines is real?" It's three reasonable but kooky fake headlines and the fourth one is "Riot breaks out after NYPD tries to seal secret synagogue tunnels in Brooklyn"
