Boston men meet sunfish, spend 5 minutes swearing at it

[josieposy]

LOL!

ETA: If I had any brain energy left this would be the most awesome time for fish puns.

Also, my local Boston public radio talk show talked about this, and the interviewee knew how many times the guy swore.

But did the interviewee know how many times he said, "Bro" and "Jay?"

The bro part was interesting. In my 30 years (i'm an upstate NY transplant) of tuning my ear (eyah) to the Boston (bahstin) accent I have found that the white Boston dude addresses his male friend/acquaintence, random dude watching the Sox at a bar (bah) with him not as Bro but as Brutha.

Bro is very Millennial but that guy sounded much older. Maybe he was pulling a Kanye.

true dat. I was going to say -Boston men of a certain age -35 and up. I also love how even stone cold sober men with a strong Boston accent still sound slightly drunk

DH was imploring me to watch this last night. It's wicked cool!

This just made my morning. "Oh my gawd, Jay. That is still good meat on that fucking fish, kid. Am I lyin'?"

[sparrowsong]

I clicked on the Jaws link and then saw there was another video on youtube that is longer, and they do indeed end up hookin' that fuckin' fish, kid. For those who were wondering.

That makes me sad to hear. I read in another article that they did not hook it but called the Coast Guard in the end. Not sure why they thought the Coast Guard was interested, lol.

ETA: I don't think they got it in the boat. "Foster said the pair tried to hook the fish and bring it on board, but in the end they contacted the Coast Guard to let them know what they had found."

Oh really? I didn't actually watch they whole last two minutes. I just clicked to that part, and they had it on a hook (I thought) and seemed to be struggling to pull it on board. I really wasn't into watching the death part (vegetarian). If someone else wants to watch the last two minutes in detail, let us know. 

I'd love to hear the coast guards response.... you found a big fish? A baby wheel? In the ocean? Really?

I'm dying laughing again at his quotes in the article.

[tiramisu]

This is my favorite part of the article. Everyone has that friend.
“That’s how he talks all the time. All he does is swear. He’s nuts,” Foster said. “He was just spazzing out, and I’m just dying laughing.”
