Fished in!!! : A term used when you catch someone out with a made up fact or such like. Also ‘hook, like line and sinker’ ( see comments).
“I just convinced Dave that I had a glass eye! Man, he totally fell for it! Boy was he fished in!”
Also used in Wayne’s World.
Is it any wonder that one of Christianity’s symbols is a fish?
The Church knew all along that you were suckers, and even went as far as to make the fish symbol in-joke which none of you got!

* pedant alert * it’s Hook, LINE & sinker. I put it down to auto correct 😉
Good work, by the way, keep puncturing their balloon!
A mix of autocorrect & me being very tired. I even read it back before posting and saw it as ‘line’.
Thanks for pointing it out though – I appreciate it. One of the things that irks me more than seeing people misuse ‘your’ and ‘you’re’ is when I realise that I’ve cocked up in a wordy way myself.
I feel a not-so-religious word based God & Son cartoon coming on….
