my ex-girlfriend and I "catfished" once and it was hilarious. Just can't believe it can happen TODAY to someone like Manti T'eo.
There has to be more to the story. |
Just in case you're curious where the term comes from in the movie:

Vince, talking with Nev, tells a story. He says that when live cod were shipped to Asia from North America, the fish's inactivity in their tanks resulted in mushy flesh, but fishermen found that putting catfish in the tanks with the cod kept them active. Vince feels that people like Angela are "catfish", who keep other people active in life.
