Fishing for compliments

Someone who feels to bring up how they're "ugly," or "fat" in every single conversation so that people will disagree and compliment them.

Example:

Bella: *is literally 98 pounds*

"I'm so fat!"

Shawn: "No, you're not!"

Bella: "Yes, I am! I'm so fat and ugly!"

Shawn: "Ya know what bitch? I don't give a flying fuck. You are fat and ugly then. Shut the fuck up and stop fishing for compliments."

fishing with a shotgun

trying too hard to get something that takes time done, and by rushing, in the end you've accomplished nothing, a classic example of the old saying "patience is a virtue"

- "hey man, I think I if double the recommended oven heat on these biscuits they'll cook in half the time"
- "man, chill out, you are fishing with a shotgun"

Formspring fishing

The act of constantly posting your formspring link in hopes that someone will ask you a question about your life. Usually this fishers will sit all day without a question, and will fall into depression over the fact they have no friends who give a damn.

Lexi has been formspring fishing all day, but nobody wants to ask her why her cunt smells like dead fish.

Boofer Fishing

When walking through an area where Boofers gather, you grab small change you have in your pocket and whip it across the floor or ground and watch the boofers run after it. Pennies, nickles, dimes work great but quarters give the best results. Boofers have been known to attack and sometimes in rare cases even kill their own kind for quarters.

Brian: Wanna go Boofer Fishing?
Seth: I've only got a couple dimes.
Brian: Thats enough for Boofer Fishin. They chase anything.
