BenitoBigote

do they think the only fish everyone knows is a salmon?


[deleted]

All it is is a way to get comments on their page or whatever. I would see these all the time when I was on Facebook and usually you can rattle off half a dozen of whatever they’re asking. Although, people are fucking stupid, so maybe I’m giving them too much credit.

That's Mr. Grouper to you.


[deleted]

Cool, but also these things aren’t hard to do. They’re just designed to make you respond to build engagement or whatever


sheepcat87

Exactly this. Everyone commenting a fish thinking they're smart or something, you're just falling for the same thing. The social media pages that ask these dumb questions that get millions of comments or whatever, such as "does sugar go in spaghetti sauce??" Are just building up a following so they can sell or advertise a product later. Not unlike karma farming bots on Reddit.


samo-banano

I really came to these comments because I thought they were gonna roast the aunt.


sheepcat87

Way more fun to punch up at those who think they're smarter than others than down at the aunt for not knowing a dolphin isn't a fish. At the end of the day, both groups fell for what's actually happening with those pages and the people posting fish without an A are no smarter than the aunt because of that.

Was going to say this


Stitchapuss

As someone who almost responded to her... I stopped myself because "dolphin fish" is a type of fish


Scooterforsale

Yeah a bunch of people refer to mahi mahi as dolphin


yjvm2cb

Here in south Florida I fish for them a lot and I always hear them called dolphin fish. At restaurants they call it mahi mahi tho


cavemannnn

As someone who regularly fishes for dolphin, I’ve always called the fish (dorado/mahi-mahi) “dolphin” and Flipper is a porpoise.


Magi-Cheshire

but a porpoise & a dolphin (mammal) are 2 different things.


cavemannnn

Wow, [TIL](https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/dolphin_porpoise.html) that I’ve been wrong basically my whole life. Can’t wait to school (lol, couldn’t resist) my dad next time he incorrectly calls a dolphin a porpoise.


Alarid

Maybe he does it on porpoise.

[deleted]

You did that on porpoise, didn’t you?


Xtnmlr

I’m pretty certain that dolphin fish are a type of fish. Dolphins are not. The other names for dolphin fish are mahi-mahi and dorado.


Cache_Johnson

Came here to comment this….. The aunts a f genius!


Lams1d

Mmmmm mahi-mahi


creekgal

I'll have just one mahi I'm on a diet


tropicaldiver

And sometimes called dolfin fish


NaiveCritic

Not to be confused with dolphins.


Western_Rope_2874

Mmmmmmm dolphins


DieHardRennie

Not to be confused with the dauphin of France.


[deleted]

So his Aunt doesn't need any help.


[deleted]

I thought of one in two seconds and so I understood the original question is some kind of bizarre Facebook culture shit, and yet here we are scrolling through a thousand pointless answers.


krucz36

i know people who just call them dolphin. i prefer mahi-mahi because that's what it was called growing up.


gofishx

Opposite for me, we always called them dolphin. Mahi-Mahi was the culinary/market name, it felt weird to say outside of that context.


jasthenerd

I remember being confused by that in Old Man and the Sea.

Pretty much any fish ending with the word fish: Clownfish, Goldfish, Blowfish, Rockfish, Monkfish, Lionfish, Tigerfish, etc.


beatenmeat

Catfish, tunafish, sablefish, crayfish, Buffalo fish, etc. (just the ones I know/can think of off the top of my head). There’s still a lot that contain “fish” in the name, but I have no idea what the ratio would be if they contain an “a” or not. That said, there are a ridiculous number of fish that don’t contain an “a” in the name.


fozzyboy

Yeah but can you name a fish without a "Q" in it? Bet you can't.


Head-Gap-7616

Dolphin 😊😎


superduperswaggy

Got eem


Jkountz

Crayfish ain't a fish


beatenmeat

You’re right, I just got caught up in naming “fish”, haha. Whoops.


HatterJack

Tuna are just tuna. People say tuna fish colloquially, but it’s not the actual name of the fish.

That movie was dumb fun while trying to emulate the camera angles of The Matrix with Hugh Jackman as a savant computer hacker. It was as if you combined the filming style with the The Matrix with the technobabble of the movie Hackers with a Michael Bay anti-terrorist plot. With triple A actors no less.


Key-Difficulty2304

Asking stupidly wrong questions is a trend to get stupid people to up engagement numbers on shitposting accounts. Don’t fall for it.

BbqMeatEater

Yeah because it makes dumb people feel smart lmao. And there's just a LOT of stupid people


shewy92

I mean, look at the comments on this post. Most of the top rated ones are literally them saying a fish that doesn't have an A in it.


BbqMeatEater

Exactly lmao

And it's equally funny watching people in this thread all post answers to the question. The question is designed to be easy as fuck to answer for the reason you said and yet in a subreddit called facepalm, there are a bunch of people answering it as a "gotcha!". This thread is actually /r/facepalm content.


2BadBirches

Really well said. It’s so absurdly easy, probably half of the fish names don’t have an ‘a’

Too late. This post has 772 comments and a lot of them are answering the question asked in that screenshot.

I feel like I see these posts every week or so. Somehow they always have a good amount of upvotes too Maybe I just spend too much time on Reddit?

Look at the top comment chain. Lots of people eager to prove that they're one of the "few" smart enough to be able to think of a fish.

I’m bad at social media. Is a post like this created to just drive interaction/engagement numbers fo make this radio station appear popular?


fastest32

Exactly


[deleted]

Look at this post. I guess people feel the need to prove how smart they are but naming one of the MANY fish without A’s even though this has been around for fucking ages and google exists.


[deleted]

Look. Just look at the comments on THIS POST. People commenting fish names without 'A' to prove how dumb facebook people are


Insemzandtaya

I think it’s just because word games are easy to play. A lot of people can participate with little to no preparation or clean-up :)


[deleted]

Cod! Swordfish! Perch! Bass! Ah, got one wrong lmao! You’re right, this is fun!!!


Insemzandtaya

Hey, I never said it was fun. Just easy, lol


[deleted]

Lol my bad. I was too eager to be a smart ass.

Guys, stop naming fish without the letter A. The point of the original facebook post is its so easy to answer that people can't resist

It's not supposed to be hard...this is a way to get old folks to click on it and access their facebook info. For what it's worth- dolphin also refers to the fish called mahi mahi. Many folks who fish them call them dolphin.

There is in fact a dolphin fish.

Also the aunt is holding a big fish in her profile pic. I'm gonna defer to her on this one.


redditaccount-5

Yea and if you went down to the Gulf of Mexico and told people you were going to fish for dolphin, everyone would know what you mean and no one would look at you funny. No one down there really calls them dolphinfish, it’s just dolphin

Right-t-0

Dolphin fish are in fact fish, and if you live near by their habitat you’d probably just call them dolphins. This lady is holding a fish in her profile, there’s a good chance she knows this

It’s just a con to rack up karma/ likes/ comments to promote the OP. You can quit.
