Watch the Fish

v. The act of expecting something spectacular to happen only to have a very disapointing and lousy result. It was first said by Homer Simspon while showing his family is "anti-bulglar device" that involved a lot of string and a fish in a bowl. "Watch the fish, Marge. Watch the fish" were Homer's words just before the bulglar went through the mail slot and stole the fish, thus providing a disapointing climax.

My friend wanted to show me this trick on his skateboard but he just ended up making me watch the fish.

Get the Watch the Fishmug.

apple watch

A smart watch made by Apple that makes you pay around 500 dollars so you don't have to pull your phone out of your pocket. Also pretty overpriced.

Is that the new apple watch? It's so cool! Yeah, but I'm broke now. At least I have fun spinning that wheel thing.

whale watching

The act of going to a restaurant for the sole purpose of watching the really fat people eat. Best whale watching locations include buffets, all-you-can-eat pancake dinners, and friday night fish fries.

The family and I went out to Old Country Buffet last Friday to go whale watching. We saw this one orca go back for six plates. We took pictures.
