Catfish and Schadenfreude

Catfish: The TV Show airs on MTV Canada on Tuesdays at 9. This show is the best show for people who are dating or considering dating online. I just watched my first episode and I gotta tell you, it was pretty hilarious.

This episode featured a 24 year old girl named Trina who is an exotic dancer. She had been dating THIS MAN....


....for the last year. Whom she thought was a 27 year male dancer with 2 kids. The host of show investigates the claims to find out if this person is actually who they say they are. Well!! They used some really good google-fu and were able to find out that this man is NOT who he claims to be. They find out that he is actually, THIS MAN...


...a 32 year old, chunky brotha with four kids!! FOUR! You can even imagine the amount of schadenfreude that I was feeling. Schadenfreude is pleasure derived from the misfortunes of others, I think you know the feeling; it's the feeling you got when you read my post about Mr. Half-On-A-Pizza. I can't blame you, it's a pretty good feeling, cause I was howling at the TV when I saw this guy. He is everything he wasn't supposed to be. The only thing that would have made this a complete lie would have been if he was white. I'll be watching this show religiously. PVR power, activate.

Ladies, be smart when you're online; take a page out of my pessimistic  jaded book... if it looks too goof to be true, I guarantee it is.
