The purest little animals that swim around in large cuboids filled with water. When it comes to goldfish, opinions are rather polarising - there are really only two types of people: those who have an undying love and experience monomania towards those creatures, and those who openly dislike them as think that they're boring little lumps that open and close their mouths.

Far too often, they are portrayed in unfunny Youtube videos as memeable and clumsy things who only exist for the human race to laugh at.

its time to stop.
Far too often, goldfish are treated as though they're nothing more than entities that exist for us to laugh at.

Someone with a memory of 7 seconds or less, as defined by the legendary Monty Python.
Goldfish 1: Hey, look at that castle!
Goldfish 2: What's a castle?
Goldfish 1: I don't know, why d'you ask?
Goldfish 2: Ask what?
Goldfish 1: Hey, look at that castle!

1) A type of adorable orange fish that is a common household pet

2) A nickname for a kid who called himself a "beta male" but he cant spell so he typed Betts and now his friends call him Goldfish.

2) "Hey guys I wrote a fan fiction about Goldfish. Its called spicy goldfish"

Great crackers from Peppridge farms. They're baked, not fried, come in different varieties, and smile back. Try mixing them up all in one bag.
Hmm... pretzel, pizza, cheddar, and color goldfish mixed in one bag.

Similar to being “catfished,” a person gets “goldfished” when...the person they’ve been talking to via “online” etc is, indeed, the right person, they just promised everything in the world, gold, glitter and diamonds, and after meeting....they brought nothing but empty promises.
“We been chattin’ online these last 8 months, he promised me that he’d treat me like a queen. Now that we’ve met, he been nothin’ but jealous and controlling.”

“Girl, you done been goldfished.”
