Kittenfishing

Thanks to Nev Schulman, we are all familiar with the horrors of catfishing. Kittenfishing is a less extreme version of that. You're not parading around someone else's pictures, per se, but you're using older (hotter) photos of yourself in your profile, or minorly exaggerating your job or interests (saying you're a lawyer, but you're still in law school; saying you love extreme rock-climbing, but have only gone on a hike twice). Don't lie for the sake of lying. Anyone who has done this on a resume can attest that it will bite you hard in the ass later.
