Inflammatory is an adjective to describe a person who decides to act like a jerk in order to make someone else mad. They may even say manipulative things or anything to get a reaction and incite negative emotions such as anger, sadness, anxiety, etc.

For example, a person could say, "you don't want to see me." to a girlfriend who actually misses the boy, but he says an inflammatory line to get attention from her and maybe even just to mess with her.

There is also a medical definition for the word inflammatory.
