What a Catch: The Stuck! Bath Plug

Comments (7)

Posted by jinnyjinn on Jul 16, 2009

I don’t have a hard time baiting and hooking the less than desirable fish that must be thrown back. I’ve caught my fair share of flying fish with their heads in the clouds, spineless fish that blindly swim with their school, catfish with inexplicably strange facial hair, and guppies whose denim is tighter fitting than mine. It’s an upstream battle trying to reel in one of the keepers.

So what happens when you finally attract that prized 6-feet 6-inches marlin and his toned slimy body begins to slip through your clutches? That is when I wish I had a life size version of this Stuck! Goldfish Bath Plug (about $12) to ensure that the keepers can’t get away. That way when you hear, “There’s plenty of other fish in the sea,” you can smile coyly and reply, “Oh, I don’t think this one’s going anywhere.”

Can you commiserate with my frustrating fishy adventures? Or have you hooked your perfect mate?

When you find one of those keepers please let me know. I've hooked way too many spineless, rotten and foul pikes or barracudas that I don't even go near the water anymore. Report Spam Posted by lamerchick at 11:47 AM on 07/16/09
@lamerchick - I've had similar foul guy experiences...which was part of the reason I joined Match and met Patrick within a month. There are good ones out there, m'dear! It just takes quite a bit of searching. Report Spam Posted by jinnyjinn at 12:09 PM on 07/16/09

@jinnyjinn: Wow! You did the online thing? You're brave. I know so many people do but I never actually knew anyone who did. I'm out of contention. I'm not sure I even want to try again I've had so many bad experiences. Report Spam Posted by lamerchick at 12:29 PM on 07/16/09
@lamerchick - I hear ya. I wasn't ready to do something like that for a long time. I wasn't even ready for a relationship for a long time. Everything happens when they're supposed to. And there's a lot to be said about enjoying single life too ;) Report Spam Posted by jinnyjinn at 12:48 PM on 07/16/09
@jinnyjinn: Yes there is. :) I'm happier now than I've ever been with a guy, maybe the happiest I've ever been period. So, if and when the right guy ever comes along, maybe I'll be ready. :) Report Spam Posted by lamerchick at 12:55 PM on 07/16/09
