      say what?

      it's this new usage that is creeping into everyday speech which must be stopped.

      http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=catfish

      a line in the sand must be drawn. this far, no further!

      toxin and poison.

      those should only be allowed by trained professionals. especially on MFP.

      I'm trying to figure out what catfish has to do with TV or football. :huh:


      Catfish is yummy with cornmeal in the breading and panfried to a perfect golden brown.

      I create feelings in others that they themselves don't understand.

      I resemble that remark! :laugh:

      I wish I could view the urban dictionary from work. I will have to wait. I am dying to know what catfish has to do with football. That makes no sense. But considering the definition is coming from urban dictionary, it doesn't have to make sense. Slang terms are often silly.

      Google Manti Te'o; he was "catfished".

      I know what Catfish has to do with football... That football player was Catfished by someone on the internet. I just meant the post as a whole.

      You create those feelings? Is it because you're moist? Because that just isn't polite. :happy:

      Ha! That worked. Thanks.

      OP, don't worry, slang as silly as the above will be gone soon enough. It doesn't have staying power, I assure you.

      - YOLO
      - BOGO
      - 24/7
      - hater, haters, h8ers, h8erz, etc.
      - Oakland Raiders

      all of the people using these terms should be sent to the cornfield.

      Haters and 24/7 have already been around way too long. They aren't going anywhere. I do hope the Oakland Raiders diappear as a franchise. I've never heard the team used as slang though.

      i didn't single out slang. all words are on the table.

      Oakland + Raiders. bad enough by themselves. even worse together.

      Go Broncos! ;)
