Asian Fishing

When someone who is not Asian, tries to look like someone of Asian descent.
This usually occurs when someone takes the sexualized and fetishized aspects of Asian people and uses it as an "aesthetic" or for their own advantage. Asian fishing perpetuates stereotypes and completely disregards the oppression Asians have faced.

1st person: Hey, are you Asian?
2nd person: No, it's just makeup. But I'm obsessed with Asian culture.
2nd Person: Oh. I thought you were Asian. (their brain: what ...wtf... why they were just Asian fishing)

craigslist fishing

creating a fake craigslist personals post asking to meet someone at a bar. the person responding to the post is required to wear an article of clothing designated by the poster to distinguish themselves. once at the bar, do a shot for every person who walks in wearing said article of clothing and aimlessly looking to hook up with their phantom partner.

I went craigslist fishing this weekend. It was extremely creepy, but I got really fucking drunk.

Like Fishing

Posting a Facebook status solely for the reason of obtaining as many likes as possible.

Ninety-Nine percent of non-celebrity statuses are the result of like fishing.

Facebook User's status: "Maybe you should eat makeup, so you can try to be pretty on the inside too."

Dude: "Damn, Facebook User got 57 likes. That's an obvious use of like fishing."

mouse fishing

It's like that thing, where you accidentally knock your mouse off your desk, and rather than reach down to get it, you just grab the cable and reel it back up, hand over hand.

Tony was too fat and lazy to set his laptop aside, so just grabbed the cable on the back and did some mouse fishing.
