fishing

when an obviously hot girl insults herself with the intention of having everybody around her disagree with what she said, and triggering a barrage of compliments. the easiest way to deal with a person like this is to just agree with them.

ridiculously hot girl: i'm so fat and ugly!
someone nearby: yes. yes you are. stop fishing for compliments.

Compliment fishing

When someone essentially insults themself in order to get sympathy from other people. A flirting tactic used by many girls.

Guy: Hi, what's wrong?
Girl: *sigh* I look awful today!
Guy: No you don't! You look absolutely wonderful!
Girl: No, I don't. Stop being nice.
Guy: I'm serious, you do! You're the most beautiful girl in the world, you couldn't look better!
Girl: I guess... but I'm stupid.
Guy: No you're not! You're 50 million times smarter than me!

... and this compliment fishing goes on. Don't fall for it, guys. It usually leads you to a girl who will dump you unless you compliment their every move and become their slave.

road fishing

When lacking a decent place to enjoy alcoholic beverages free from interference, road fishing is a final option. This act consists of driving around the countryside with a cooler full of beverages, allowing all passengers to 'fish' out and enjoy drinks hidden from public view. Road Fishing is only recommended in rural settings.

"Dave's parents shut down tonight's plan for a party, so we're just going to go road fishing until something new comes up."

prison fishing

A common sport among prisoners when an inmate unwraps a Jolly Rancher and places it between his/her butt cheeks. Later that day, they remove the Jolly Rancher, re-wrap it, and set it on an empty table. They then move a few paces away and wait for an unsuspecting "fish" to "take the bait" and eat the butt-Rancher.

We were prison fishing for hours last week. The only downside is that my bum is still sticky.

Fitching up

Comedy lingo: The act of revising a joke to make it more vulgar and offensive. Usually involving the addition of rape, pedophelia, cancer, or any other generally offensive topic.

I was fitching up my jokes for dirty joke night at the comedy zone.

We brought new writers in because the script needs some fitching up.

That joke is a too clean for this crowd, you should fitch it up a little.
