facebook fishing

The act of articulating a Facebook status update in which one's true intention is to see how many "likes" or comments he/she can receive. This is usually done by individuals with, but is not limited to, low self-esteem, boredom, and/or a feeling of little self-worth.

Girl #1: Did you see Casey's Facebook status?

Girl #2: No, was it desperate?

Girl #1: Yeah--she was totally Facebook fishing.

Fishing pole

When you cum in a girls mouth and have a string of your jizz connecting your penis to the girls mouth.

Your penis is the pole your jizz is the string and the girl is the fish

I fished that bitch onto my dick via a fishing pole

Hobo Fishing

To park a pickup truck with food in the bed in the middle of the slums and hide in the cab and when hobos get in the bed of the truck the driver speeds away, bringing the hobos with him for his own nefarious purposes.

I went hobo fishing yesterday. Now 11 hobos are locked up in my shed.

Text-fishing

the sport of sending out casual text messages to a series of people you would like to hook-up with in rapid succession. The idea is to stimulate a meaningful response, known as a bite, from one or more of them in hopes of catalyzing intimate relations.

"Damn Doug... You sure been texting a lot! You got a girlfriend or something???"

"Nah... I'm just text-fishing. Hold on! I got a bite!!!"

Compliment fishing

Putting oneself down to others to evoke sympathy from others especially regarding ones appearance. Typically happens after a break-up.

Fisher: "Oh my gosh, I feel so awful now..."
Sucker: "What do you mean?"
Fisher: "I mean...I just *sigh*...I don't know."
Sucker: "Seriously, what is it?"
Fisher: "I just wish I could still wear my size 0 pants."
Sucker: "No! You look so amazing right now! You're perfect and don't let anyone tell you otherwise!"
Fisher: "I guess *sigh* Thanks."

That my friends, was a prime example of compliment fishing. Don't be suckered.

Kiriban Fishing

A term that is used when a random deviant (or SheezyArt user) stumbles on a another userpage and waits for the number of unique pageviews to reach the target number in order to get a free drawing from the person as a gift. In order to achieve it, the user must quickly screenscap the exact number of unique pageviews and send the deviant (or SheezyArt user) who set the kiriban value a note to prove it or else no reward.

I'm gonna go kiriban fishing today to find if I'm the 1,337th visitor to SockArmy's userpage.

Whoever goes kiriban fishing and becomes the 100th watcher, gets a free gifty from me.
