Have you ever spoken to a hunter or fisherman about their best catch? Well, more or less, depending on when you ask them and how many beers they’ve had, the details will vary. One day it’ll be a footlong bass. That next Saturday night when they’ve had a few too many at the local bar with a half broken jukebox that only plays Willie Nelson songs, that bass will have turned into a tarpon and you’re wondering how the hell a tarpon was found in a pond in Mississippi.
This same sort of concept happens on twitter from time to time too.
