Fuck, I leave for one day to visit family and like eight different insane things happen while I'm gone. Thank you to everyone who updates the thread with details for those of us who can't always be there.
A lot of people are saying they no longer want Tay to win after the shoes and panties thing, because she humiliated herself. Isn't humiliating yourself for money the point of Fishtank? All that says to me is that she wants to win so badly she's willing to go to extremes, which makes me root for her more. Of course it's not a good look for her. It's not supposed to be. But putting up with gross and degrading bullshit without leaving is the whole point. It's how you win. She was so scared of roaches that it made her start sobbing when Frank threw them on her, but she's still here. That shows mental toughness. I was a Taytriot before and I'm even more of a Taytriot now. I like Shinji too, but as someone said before, Shinji seems like he's having actual fun on the tank. If he wins, it won't be as impressive as Tay winning, because she's awkward and anxious and way more affected by everything, while he's clearly in his element in this kind of environtment. Who's braver, the person who has a phobia of flying but does it anyway, crying the entire plane ride, or the person who isn't afraid of planes at all?
