That's not true, I caught one the other day who promised to grant me wishes if I let it go. He wasn't lying but the wishes eventually led to my downfall so now I have a hard time trusting anyone even partially aquatic.

Did his salmon friends rob your house while he distracted you with the wishes? Happened to me one time. Just wanna make sure it wasn't the same salmon.

I thought it was bad enough when I got catfished by a salmon but you guys got me beat

[–] corodius@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well, at least its better than getting salmoned by a catfish. that was an experience.

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Oof thoughts and prayers

A tale as old as time

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

partially aquatic.

So, like, a mermaid?

[–] alekwithak@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I would definitely never trust a mermaid. Well maybe if they sang the right song.

I just don't like the fishtail. I'd like the fish part on top with legs.

[–] Geobloke@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

You just don't know where they stand

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 day ago

Last time a fish tried to grant me a wish, I cut its head off, gut, filet, pan sear on med high till throughly cooked and seasoned with a side of fiddleheads. Wish granted.

I think, upon closer inspection, you’ll find that you were actually talking to a large mouth bass named Billy. Excellent singer too.

Wait is this like a classic story? It sounds oddly familiar

[–] Hoimo@ani.social 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I know it as The Fisherman and his Wife

Edit: Updated link to a more prototypical example, a fairy tale as recorded by Grimm.

[–] flyingSock@feddit.org 1 points 1 day ago

One of the Grimm's fairy tales.
