  • 2 Stars — Pretty bad. Some funny moments, dragged, too many vibe repair days. Barely worth checking.

    Votes: 408 52.2%

I don't know if anyone clipped it but fatty had a pretty funny story about Jimmy's discord "friends". Jimmy was apparently asking him for women advice. He basically told him that he needs a group of friends for that and Jimmy's response was that "his discord friends usually do that for him" After that, Fatty loudly said that in his head he thought he was a huge retard.

Brian went there early on with Jimmy and said there was some valuable stuff there and that Jimmy should be focusing on a narrow selection of stuff like tools, but that most of it was indeed just rotted trash that needed to be cleared. The way Jimmy was talking about paying hoarderman's property taxes and shit during 2.5 made it seem like the relationship has the potential of turning parasitic if it hasn't already. There is a line where Jimmy can be a friend and help clear space for the guy for mobility reasons and maybe sell off a few of the items to help repair some of the house, but paying off taxes for the guy because he smokes up all the money he has on weed is totally unacceptable. Jimmy needs to be focusing on his life, not playing tugboat for an irresponsible guy more interested in getting high than ensuring he has his affairs in order.

From what I can gather it seems to be mutually parasitic:
1. Jimmy is better than free labour for Hoarderman, he doesn't have to pay him, and Jimmy actually pays off Hoarderman's expenses
2. Jimmy believes he's going to get a major windfall out of Hoarderman. I can only assume that Hoarderman has no next of kin or family to leave money to, so Jimmy probably assumes that all of the money that he earns for Hoarderman, and presumably the property, will end up with him once Hoarderman dies and is just biding his time

The issue with the second point, however, is that Hoarderman spends all his money on weed by the sounds of it, so realistically Jimmy may only get the land (if Hoarderman has nobody else to leave it to). It may well be that Jimmy is just selling off the least valuable stuff and retaining the more valuable items so that he can sell it once Hoarderman dies.

He's an elderly hoarder who's house Jimmy is clearing out for free so he doesnt have to live the rest of his life out in filth and squalor and helping him out with other problems

It's worth noting that we don't fully understand Jimmy's motives for doing it; it could well be out of the goodness of his own heart, but I'm very suspicious of that, personally, and think Jimmy sees personal gain in Hoarderman in the same way Hoarderman sees personal gain in Jimmy.

Jimmy also stated in the recent leaked messages that he had beaten Hoarderman but did it in self-defense. Given that Jimmy considers the Abby situation to have been a self-defense situation, it really makes you wonder what happened and how much of a self-defense situation it actually was.

I used to know a guy who befriended a professor at his university, and when that professor died he left everything to the guy, guy became almost a millionaire overnight. It does happen but it won't with Hoarderman. When Hoarderman dies, if he does leave anything to Jimmy, it's a rotten, decrepit house filled with garbage. Cleaning everything out is going to offset the value from whatever treasure is actually buried there.

I half expect Hoarderman to die, leave nothing to Jimmy (at least not explicitly), and Jimmy spergs out thinking he's owed everything.

just to add some of the more basic stuff - they met because hoarderman's car broke down and jimmy stumbled on him. jimmy doesn't have irl friends in vermont so he's said part of the benefit of the relationship is that hoarderman shares some interests with him and they both keep each other company.

obviously jimmy is prone to saying stupid shit so his long term goal doesn't make sense but what he's said he wants is to fix structural problems with the house, clear out a recording studio that is apparently inside it, then clear the overgrown land so he can do big creative projects with friends on it

it's why he talked with delaney about visiting that thing her ex boyfriend was running out of a church because it was a bunch of artists living in a building doing drugs.

if you excise hoarderman from this and say, jimmy, we're gonna let you do creative stuff, you just have to do it for fishtank, and you have to pay taxes on what we pay you and come in when we agree you will and work with other people and take direction so that we know you're doing stuff the safe/productive way, it feels like a full upgrade considering how much work he does at hoarderman's that is unpaid, dangerous, and immediately undone by hoarderman wasting the money or cleared plants growing back, etc. and if his work on hoarderman's only pays off if he gets to build his weird retarded utopia there, at least working somewhere else gives him financial progress week by week instead of an uncertain, basically impossible payoff.

shin jimmy, jimmy 2.0, groundskeeps for the outdoor .5 seasons in the perfect world where fishtank keeps going for many years building weird Burning Man bullshit in the woods

I think the only value in that property is the land it sits on. I'm not sure someone would buy it in its current state, and if Jimmy were to clear the land and sell it, I doubt he'd break even. This, of course, assumes Hoarderman leaves him the property or anything for that matter.

Jimmy for sure sees immense value in the trash, there isn't any but just like hoarders they believe a rusty broken lawnmower retains its value 30 years later.
The ashtray incident is a prime example of this mindset. He believed a shitty porcelain ashtray that was like 60 years old was worth money and flipped his shit when Trish? Broke it.
 
Does Hoarderman actually live in that house in the photo or is he in a separate trailer on the property or something? I don’t know much about laws regarding the stuff but how has that building not been condemned?

jimmy's said that the porch is the worst part but it hasn't damaged the house itself

I've seen shots of some type of barn full of trash that isn't part of the house.
