So a few nights ago I went to a festival and played the fish catching game. You get a plastic hoop with a thin sheet of paper over it and you try to catch a fish with it. But if the paper gets too wet, it rips. So you have to be fast and efficient. After trying to catch a fish for a few minutes I got one but since it took me so long it just ripped through the paper and I ended up catching nothing. I guess the stall owner felt bad for me so he gave me three fish anyway. Lol. I actually didn’t want the fish at all, but just wanted to try and catch one, but I took the little guys home with me anyway. So then I was stuck with three fish. I had actually heard that the trauma of the whole festival game with children batting at them all night and then being caught and bounced around in a bag made the fish die really quick, so I thought that the fish would be dead by morning. However, when I woke up the next morning all of them were still alive.
Faced with the knowledge that the trauma wasn’t going to kill them, I couldn’t exactly let them starve, so I immediately went to the store and got some fish food. I fed them and an hour later I checked up on them. Two were dead. The third was a trooper and lasted a little longer. Maybe a day, and then it was the toilet for that one too. And so it was, the sad story of my fish’s short lives.

My fish won't die. I've had them forever. I'm sure they've aged to about 105 by now.
