Catfish emerged as the counterfoil to the dog club back in the days of the ODC. They swam in schools and dressed similiar to each other and had their own lingo. If dogs can be said to be all about the hoop, the catfish typically loves to focus on the dehoop. And thus it was destined that a fierce rivalry be born.

Dogs like to hoop it up and talk shog about what latest hoop phases are hooping, tell mofo’n stories and generally run buyge jauqs. A Catfish would talk about what “deep shog” they’ve been thinking about, talk about cutting themselves, and talk about how much pain their souls are in. You know the type of shogtalk I’m sure. The opposite of Dog you can conclude is therefor not Cat, but Catfish. After all, cats have much more characteristics with Dogs than either do with the slimy, bottom feeding, wetmass sitch of a catfish.

The short version is that catfish dwell in the shadows (dehoop) and dogs hoop it in the day (hoop).

But catfish aren’t necessarily lodge, after all they have a lot of similar traits to dogs in that they love uniformity, rep’ing their brand, and being brave enough to commit hardcore to a style as opposed to you know dressing like a hoople in like a t-shirt and meijer shorts. And they typically are even hooped on a lot of the same shog (phases, science, the arts).

All the more reason for the heated rivarly between catfish and dogs.
