catfishing

That kind of Batman's trap that lead you to something unexpectedly different from your initial expectation, e.g. ending up watching age-inappropriate animated movie titled "Sausage Party" (2016) when you akcually expect to watch kid-friendly animated movies

I thought I was in for a fun family movie night, but catfishing hit hard when I ended up watching the wildly inappropriate 'Sausage Party' instead of a kid-friendly flick!

Josh was gift catfishing yesterday when he said would get me that sweater, however, when I asked when it was shipping he said he changed his mind.

Adoption Catfishing

When you don't tell someone they're adopted their entire lives. They submit their DNA to ancestry and people tell them not to that it's fake and doesn't work anyway. And then their DNA comes back not matching their family and you tell them that it must be contaminated or they mixed up the kits.

The adoption catfishing ended at her adoptive mom's funeral. A well-meaning relative told her and now she gets to deal with her grief, the shock of finding out she's adopted and no one to ask questions to.
