It's fun, you should try it. (Or not) Part 1

  So, there is a thing to do called fishing. It involves a long bendy stick whose price can range from well, that's a bit much for a stick, to YOU PAID WHAT FOR THAT!!?? On the bendy stick there is a cranking device with string in it. The price range of this cranky thing is anywhere from that's a bit much for a cranky thing, to YOU PAID WHAT FOR THAT!!?? On the end of the string there is a hook, contrary to all my testing, it is not designed to be stuck into any part of a human. There can be pain involved, don't tell me I didn't warn you, 'k? In fact, if it's stuck into another human without forewarning them, hearing loss can occur. You should keep this in mind. Thankfully, these conditions have proven to be temporary. If these hazards can be avoided, it is recommended that you string a morsel of sorts on the hook. This morsel could be something gross, like a artificial worm, crawfish, etc, or something detestable, like a live worm, crawfish etc, or something downright putrid, like raw meat or a fish head. Once all this is arranged, there are casting techniques that can range from, whoa, what are you swatting at? to, wait, where did you put your hook? to oh, nice cast. If the third option is found, and the right bait ends up in front of the right fish which is in the right mood; there might be a bit of a fight, which could remind you of the last time you walked a small dog and the neighbor's cat came up close and swore at him in that language dogs and cats use to trade insults. If and when you win the fight, you'd find yourself in possession of a strange creature that feels slimy and tries to prick you, all while gasping for water much like you would gasp for air if you were in water. This then, is the fish, and it is up to you if you put it back in the water, or murder it and rip the meat off and eat it, like a man of the world that used to be before the invention of the man bun and the smartphone. So, if you avoid the pitfalls of getting speared by your own hook, or the fish you had war with, and you keep your hands clean enough to touch your face without feeling like you may have ingested something truly concerning, then your fishing day at least did not go badly. If however you find yourself doing battle with many fishes, and dealing with lot's of fish slime, and possibly cutting a lot of fish, then your fishing has pretty much gone according to the best case scenario. Anyway, fishing is fun, you should try it.
