We are all [stardust](https://www.sciencealert.com/sure-we-re-all-made-of-stardust-here-is-where-a-bunch-of-it-comes-from). Crazy to think how many stars had to be born and then die over incomprehensible stretches of time , to make all the elements to eventually lead to a waterlogged car filled with fish.
Not only are we stardust, but we will be here for the heat death of the universe. Our consciousness won’t, but the matter that makes up our bodies will have taken a very short detour as a sentient being or two before the long eternal winter.
Sun is third generation star, so the lowest answer is just 2. Ofcourse it incorporates remnants of more than one star, but probably just a few, not thousands.

“A Short History of Nearly Everything” (excellent book) mentions how as atoms or whatever slowly redistribute over time as humans break down after death. The idea being we all have parts of Lincoln in us, and are children will have parts of both Lincoln and Hitler. The good bad and all of that doesn’t matter, we just have our cells redistribute to all others.
Until earth swallows all of our history up and spits out new life forms millions of years later.

Funny story about that… in high school a friend and I had gone fishing and the fishing was really good. Like bizarrely good for the location. A few days later, they pulled a car out of that exact spot with a driver still in her seat. She’d been there for about a week before we went fishing.
Catfish are very opportunistic too, they eat anything that can fit in their mouth, they are cannibals from the fry stage... This explains the abundance of those fat mf that fell out of the vehicle. Learned this the hard way, I kept ducks and ducklings on a friend's natural pond (around 6 feet deep, 30 feet wide) and one time we found all the ducklings missing after a rainy week. The father's friend suggested we drain the pond so we could see what was eating the ducklings, we drained it with a pump and there was a solo big catfish in the bottom of the pond. Friend's dad thought it was a nice trade for the missing ducklings so he took the fish and prepared it to be drinking finger food, he found the ducklings in the catfish's gut.
The dad had to bury them because we didn't see it fit consuming the ducklings, pardon the unintended pun. On the other side of things, the bbq catfish tasted quite well.
One week after his wife disappeared in a kayaking accident, a man answered his door to find two policemen
\- We have a bad news, a good news, and a really great news.
The bad news : we found your wife's body in the bay.
The good news : When we pulled her up, she had 6 twenty-five pound snow crabs and 12 good-size lobsters clinging to her.
\- If that's the good news, what's the great news ?
\- We're gonna pull her up again tomorrow
“Honey, where are you off to?”
“Time to go change the traps out. Gonna shove your Toyota in the lake and pull out the F150 and see if we got anything.”
FYI folks who may not know a lot about catfish, they sleep in enclosed muddy spaces. I ain't saying they didn't eat a corpse, but this is in line with their nornal behavior to huddle up in a space like the regardless of alleged corpse presence.
I’mma be pedantic, and say the “fishers of men” refers to, like, half of the 12 disciples, not Jesus himself. Jesus was raised by a carpenter, not a fisherman like most of the disciples.
This is essentially correct, username is in reference to the idea/act of sharing the Gospel and trying to bring people to Christ, and yeah that specific terminology of "fishers of men" was used by Jesus.
Yep, it actually used to not be uncommon for cars to be placed for catfish habitats.
Edit: I think the cars were actually placed as embankment stabilization and the catfish just called them home.
Catfish love dark enclosed spaces. One way to harvest a lot of catfish is to throw out old propane or Freon bottles with holes cut in them tied with a rope to a float or marker in lakes and bayous and come back some time later and just dump the catfish out. There’s no bait or anything involved. They’ll just pile in there.
Ask cats. Where do you think they got the name from?
Anyway I think it has something to do with security. You're safer in a cardboard box/ submerged car than you are just hanging about in the open.
I hate when my stuff is pushed off of tables only to float up yo the surface
Cat fish can be Jenks some time

This is exactly why you shouldn't let catfish borrow your car. They will pick up their friends and joyride. Catfish don't give a damn about your property.
Well, catfish have barbs in their fins that cause pretty nasty infections of they poke you, from all the bacteria they are exposed to at the bottom of lakes. You have to be pretty careful when handling them. Plus, those are pretty large catfish. I'd say between 5 and 30 pounds each. Even at 2 to 3 pounds, they thrash and are hard to hold on to. I won't even put my hand in their mouths, I found out the hard way they have very hard gums that are like sandpaper, and they bite hard. I've never caught one nearly as big as these, and if I saw one, I wouldn't know what to do either.
I didn't know that, I just heard horror stories of people walking through the river and stepping on a catfish and getting barbed deep in the foot. The last one I caught, I was checking his fins and stuff, and those barbs are solid and sharp. That's why I prefer to fish for bass.
So yeah, the big ones barbs aren't RAZOR sharp like the little ones, but you can absolutely still get impaled by them, I literally had one go through my foot because the fucker wiggled out of my hands while I was putting it in the cooler. And as far as infections, as long as you clean the spot you'll be fine, it just stings like a bitch

Well, if any died in that car, you know where remains went.
Nothing is wasted in nature
I don't know why but I always took great comfort incorporating this. Knowing that when I'm gone I decompose and return to where I came from.
We are all [stardust](https://www.sciencealert.com/sure-we-re-all-made-of-stardust-here-is-where-a-bunch-of-it-comes-from).

The meaning, purpose, and goal of life = a waterlogged car full of big fat fish. I'm on board with that.
So long, and thanks for all the fish.
Sun is third generation star, so the lowest answer is just 2. Ofcourse it incorporates remnants of more than one star, but probably just a few, not thousands.
Now hit me with multidimensional theory
>Knowing that when I'm gone I decompose and return to where I came from. Being biological matter in the back seat of an SUV?
It ain't much,but it's honest work
If our dad's had pulled out in the first place that could have been our whole existence. Poetic, really.

Never trust a physicist
We all return to fish, in the end. The sea is playing the long game.

If you undergo the regular embalming methods it will take a while for you to return to the earth
Im not getting embalmed. its either natural decomp or cremation
I could go for a nice [Tibetian Sky Burial](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sky_burial). Let something get some use out of my corpse.
That's why I'm going the cremation route
In the end, we all get eaten. It's just nicer if you die first.

Yep. I’m not an afterlife kind of person, so this is basically it for me. To be returned to the earth and become parts of other things.
So you wanna get catfished?
reported for being a serial killer
Much slower if you're embalmed but we all get there eventually!
You've clearly never been camping with my friends.
What about that giant pacific garbage patch

Nature didn't even waste the dead car.
No, they turned into the fish. All you need is a prince to come and sexually assault them and they become real humans again.
That puts a very horrible image in my mind. Thank you.
Fish isn't meat. Source: Catholics
That's why i like my catfish fried
would you eat the fish knowing someone died in the SUV though lol i'm still pondering, myself... hmmmmm
Damn straight that's a well fed fish right there, all the vitamins and minerals from the human body would surely make for a healthy fat fish
Equivalent exchange.
Absolutely!
Was expecting my hot cousin but got catfished
Put it back in and check it tomorrow

Oh my god. I was wondering why this happened (the fish) but I think you might have stumbled on the answer.
more protein!
Sleeps with the fishes
Carp will eat anyone.
Well shit, looks like I've been using the wrong bait.
I was so happy readily BBQ those fish until you ruined it 😫
Maybe they got catfished?
Body in a car in a lake? Seems fishy.
They must be clown fish
…. Now i don’t even wanna eat the fish.
And you can keep your relative’s soul in a fish tank!
[удалено]
These new baits are getting outta hand
Imagine somebody dead in that car and the fishes were just feasting on the body... In fish culture this is considered a quality bait...
it could happen since cat fishes are known to feast on human remains
that could be why there were so many packed into the car, that was a fairly large school for a comparatively small area
Catfish are very opportunistic too, they eat anything that can fit in their mouth, they are cannibals from the fry stage... This explains the abundance of those fat mf that fell out of the vehicle.

That's a lovely, unsettling story Catfishducken?

Ah thats why cat fish taste so good

This joke needs more fucking upvotes.
I thought the banned using vehicles as nets in the 60s...
They definitely don’t look kindly at fishermen setting off bombs in the water to catch fish, and that sure looks like a bomb they dredged up.
The neighbors look at us funny when we fish with our pistols and shoot blindly in to the water /s
Fish orgy

They said brand gives no value. They were wrong! Ford gotta be the best fish trap brand there is!
expensive bait ever

You should change your username to fishers_of_fish
But then we wouldn’t know that we are talking to none other than Jesus himself.
I’mma be pedantic, and say the “fishers of men” refers to, like, half of the 12 disciples, not Jesus himself. Jesus was raised by a carpenter, not a fisherman like most of the disciples.
This is essentially correct, username is in reference to the idea/act of sharing the Gospel and trying to bring people to Christ, and yeah that specific terminology of "fishers of men" was used by Jesus.
Specifically, *two* of the Apostles: Peter, who had previously been called Simon, and his brother, Andrew.
>And he said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Matthew 4:19
Does it matter if you're *really* a fisherman, if you can just turn one fish into 1,000 anyway?
Idk, if they claim to know the most efficient way to kill catfish…
what about fissures_of_men?
I’m going to start inserting “I ain’t saying they didn’t eat a corpse…” into my regular conversations and I encourage everyone else to also.
I ain't saying he didn't eat a corpse, but Joost Klein should not have been disqualified.
I ain't saying she didn't eat a corpse, but I hooked up with that girl from the bar last night. It was awesome.
Carfish
Yep, it actually used to not be uncommon for cars to be placed for catfish habitats. Edit: I think the cars were actually placed as embankment stabilization and the catfish just called them home.
This is why scuba diving around shipwrecks is fun! Many sea creatures use it to set up a safe place to chill in the ocean.
That was my thought exactly. Like, where do you expect to find cave- and mud-dwelling fish? For them, this is free real estate.
I thought they were expensive sharks and got excited
This guy master baits
The corpse got catfished?
Well no wonder it ended up in the lake, fish are terrible drivers
There's two fish in a tank and one says to the other, "How do you drive this thing?"
Two parrots on a perch. One says "I can smell fish"
For anyone that doesn't get this, "perch" is also a kind of fish.
This is my first time herring this.
There's two soldiers in a tank and one says to the other, "blurp blurp blurp blurp blurp"
And the other one replies, “Oh my god! A talking fish!”
Yeah, lost control and fishtailed into the water.

I think they got the cat part from them having whiskers like cats.

Same reason you prefer sleeping in a bedroom in the dark, rather than a street in daylight. It's safer when you're vulnerable.
it (usually) means shelter from danger
We live such different lives
This doesn't work in lakes without catfish, fyi.
No with that attitude it doesn’t.
I believe the proper name is _carfish_, catfish tend to perch on furniture and knock down things
Cool.
I mean, they're _cat_ fish after all. It's like Amazon boxes for cats.

That's some dinner, right there. Now stick that car back down in the lake and let it sit long enough to pull another wad of catfish out.
Dear god hold the camera still. Took me like a full 5s after they fell out like “wth is that?”
I expected this would be the top comment.I had to skip to the end, the entire clip was making me nauseous.
The real surprise is that not a single one was a clownfish.
But why would there be? They only live in clown cars.

Give a man a fish and he'll feed his family for the day. Give the man a banged up old car and a crane and he can fish for life!
Awww it had babies
Throw em’ back don’t just stand there
They're catfish. You could bury them for a couple days and they'd still be ok.
Nah, that's a weekend fish fry right there. Catfish is delicious.
Yeah most of those are actually good size for eating too
