Fishtank Tango: WHY IS EVERYONE YELLING?

Fish are loud, noisy pets. They yell all the time, even when they're not saying anything particularly emotive. Also if you don't keep them clean, they will mutate and grow human bodies.

Fishtank Tango is a webcomic about two guys who live together and also work together at a pet store. At work they talk about boobs and look at boobs and talk to boobs. Oh yeah and one of them has a fish for a head for some reason. Together they also go to a bar run by a fake Irishman and fail to pick up bar skanks. Most jokes are either incredibly sexist and chauvinistic, or else they're terrible fish puns. At one time, Fishtank Tango ended for exactly one year after publishing a very creepy comic. The most obvious reason is that he likely got arrested for lewd misconduct and was locked up for about a year.

The writer is a terrible speller and his word processor gives us such gems as "Diner and Desert" and "WHATTT," as well as my favorite, "Before you was a boy with a fish......obsession But know we can officially call you a man! Or atleast close to it!" The grammar is terrible as well, indicating that the creator is either a 12-year-old boy, or not a native english speaker. Or he's just like everyone else on the Internet, and simply completely retarded.

A more significant problem is the constant and unending shouting. Since strip one, every character has yelled his lines, showing no nuance or subtlety, but rather putting everything out there to be judged. This problem has only escalated as time goes on, reminiscent of a situation where people yell louder and louder at each other, simply because they need to speak over each other. The mouths have actually gotten wider as time progressed.

But if we look deeper, the darker nature of Fishtank Tango emerges. Here we can see Mike Fishhead's friend and roommate talking to someone. If you'll notice, his hand looks strangely like a fish fin. What we can extrapolate from this is that Mike is actually a mad freak who befriends someone and slowly turns them into a fish, which he then sells in his pet fish store. The darker side of Fishtank Tango revealed, unfortunately nothing has been proven one way or another after 5 years.

Fishtank Tango is a generic webcomic with little real emotion or even characters deeper than a wading pool. However, it makes up for these shortcomings by being incredibly unfunny and terribly drawn. It may take ages before this comic finally kicks the bucket, since it's only published weekly, but when it does, I'll be there to flush it down the toilet.
