The asshole game

A social dynamic based on reciprocity where one party breaks social protocols of politeness via passive-aggressive or intentionally hurtful statements. The addressed party, in lou of taking offense, reciprocates with similarly impolite statements resulting in a back and forth banter of sarcasm, judgemental statements, and generally asshole-ish comments about the other person
Judy: My kid was getting into the chocolate right in front of you. Maybe if you were more responsible some woman would actually have children with you.
Tom: (internal-Oh! We're playing the asshole game. OK.) Maybe if you could keep your legs closed you would have a manageable number of kids.
Judy: maybe if you weren't a slut-shaming misogynist you then people wouldn't have to be embarrassed of expressing their sexuality
