Sadfishing - you might know someone who's done it. You might know someone who does it often. Sadfishing is posting emotional or dramatic personal content to gain sympathy or attention from the online community. We're not saying it's either good or bad. In fact, when we recorded this, we had know idea there was a term for it. But Anna and Laurie could see from someone they know -- someone who seemingly sadfished -- definitely got attention. Oh, and he got Claire's sympathy....or not.
