(verb) The condition of one's limbs going limp, causing one to spontaneously fall to the ground from a standing upright position, as a dead fish would. This action follows someone directing the command "dead fish" towards an unsuspecting victim. The goal is to make the "dead fish" feel as awkward and embarassed as humanly possible.
"Wow, Kate Morris just got dead fished in front of the entire boys' soccer team. She looks like an idiot."
"I just got dead fished in front of the entire mens' lacrosse team. I'm going to go kill myself now"

a person when making out will just lie there straight as a board and have the monkey look on face when trying to make out, there is no contact, no feeling of others ass or fondaling of the nuts, nothing stiff as a board and stays there the whole time.

the act of going in to give somebody a hi-five, but instead you you make your hand go limp and yell out "Dead Fish!"
caution, this can be very emotional for some, and can cause some misunderstanding between friends.
Amy: Hey Quinn.. Hi-five?
*puts hand in the air*

Quinn: Yeah sure!
*puts hand in the air and goes in for the act of friendship*

Amy: *drops hand in limp motion*
"DEAD FISH! hahaha!!"

Derived from the obvious lack of enthusiasm and energy of a dead fish caught out of water, being or feeling like a dead fish simply means that you just want to crash in bed and hibernate until you regain your energy and are capable of performing basic functions. Until then, you are a dead fish.
-Want to do something tonight?
-I can't; I'm a dead fish. Was up all night yesterday.
