fishing trip

A phrase used to describe when someone posts a status to Facebook (or other social media) for the sole, pathetic, and plainly obvious purpose of baiting others into giving likes or positive comments to boost self-esteem.

Did you see Brianna go on that fishing trip last night? She posted, "Ugh, I feel like I never look good enough." Good thing almost nobody took the bait.
