Mermaiding 

Like a catfishing, except the person is real but their intentions are to ruin you financially, emotionally, steal your identity or con you in some other way.

Back in the day, mermaids where thought to lead sailors to their doom by leading them to dangerous storms, crashing upon rocks, or dragging them down under the sea.

I finally got in the DMs with that hottie Mercedes, but all she wanted was for me to get her Snapchat premium.

She was mermaiding me this whole time.

Mermaid Man 

Semi-retired superhero in animated cartoon series Spongebob Squarepants.Lives in Shady Shoals Retirement Home with his sidekick Barnacle Boy. His first name is Ernie, in tribute of his voice actor Ernest Borgnine. Various episodes in the series show Mermaidman as having extreme short-term memory loss and having a strange obsession with the word “Evil” ,being some kind of trigger word.

There have been 6 episodes in the”Mermaid Man & Barnacle Boy” arc in the series’ first 4 seasons, and have appeared in several other episodes afterwards.Mermaidman was voiced by Ernest Borgnine until his death in 2012.

Honestly one of my favorite characters in the show and “Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy III” being one of my favorite episodes.

Example #1

Mermaid Man: I did it! I feel five years younger. It's good to be back.

Barnacle Boy: We did it, you old coot.

Mermaid Man: Who are you?

Example #2

Mermaid Man(to Barnacle Boy):"If you wanna grow up strong like me... you gotta leave room for seconds."

Mermaiding 

A fandom in which a woman (or more rarely a man) either buys or makes a mermaid tail for the purpose of swimming in pools, lakes, or just posing on the rocks, usually while being photographed. Occasionally done with other mermaids.

Hannah got her new tail in last week and can't wait to go mermaiding in it.

Mermaiding 

Mermaiding is a common practice on Tinder, Plenty of Fish, etc. It involves women posting suggestive pics of themselves and claiming they are single and interested in dating YOU, and offering you an Instagram address to follow in order to contact them. Once you add their private account... you find out via all the pictures of her and her steroid user boyfriend(s) that in fact she just lured you onto the rocky shores to see your little life raft of hope and interest wrecked like so many many other sailors before you. "What just happened" you ask??? She got a new follower to keep funding her shenanigans, and you got another pie in the face that discourages you from dating anymore... and pushes you further towards John Galt'ing the thing all together.

Mermaids are a type of Siren.. if you dont know what a Siren is.. you need to brush up on Greek Mythology as it is VERY VERY applicable here. Go to Wikipedia and read up on Sirens..

There is a special place in hell.. near the betrayers, catfishers, lonley hearts scammers, Nigerian Scammers, and mutineers section, for Mermaids and Sirens as they prey on the hope and affection of others to make money to generally live a selfish and self absorbed lifestyle at the EXPENSE of you being their follower...

Michael Wilson coined this term as a gender opposite to "Catfishing" back in 2013 in an article about internet love scams for GAWKER, which was up and searchable until 2016.

Mermaiding: To create a fake profile on a dating site which you then use to falsely imply to men that you are interested in dating and talking to them via your Instagram account. Once they follow said private account, they find out you aren't single and have a man, but the scammer has gained another follower which they monetize to continue funding this ruse, at the victim/followers expense.

Friend: So what happened with that girl you were messaging on Tinder?
You: Ugh... once she accepted me on IG all of the pics of her and her boyfriend "magically" appeared..
Friend: So sorry Amigo.. you got MERMAIDED again
You: Yup.. but shes got like 120k followers and like 119k are men... so Im not the only one who got wrecked...
Friend: 119k guys inadverteheyntly paying her to do that S**T to their fellow men and live well doing it.. sad..
