Take the Ragebait

A specific form of taking bait designed to provoke anger—content created specifically to make people furious and, in their fury, engage. Ragebait exploits emotional vulnerability: say something outrageous, offensive, or inflammatory, and watch the angry responses flood in. Taking the ragebait means you've let someone else's provocation control your emotions and your behavior. You're angry, and they're counting on it.

Take the Ragebait "The headline was designed to infuriate—and it worked. She clicked, she commented, she raged. Take the Ragebait: when your anger becomes someone else's content. They don't care if you're right; they care that you're engaged. Your rage is their revenue."

Took the Ragebait

Past tense of taking ragebait—acknowledging that one fell for content designed to provoke anger. The phrase often comes with recognition of manipulation: you see now that your anger was the product, your engagement the goal. Took the ragebait means you were played by design.

Took the Ragebait "He realized, hours later, that he'd spent his evening arguing with strangers because of a post designed to make him angry. 'I took the ragebait,' he admitted. The anger was real; the post was calculated. His emotion had been harvested, and he'd volunteered for the harvest."

Eating the Raspberry

The act of intentionally harming or appearing to harm oneself in order to test if others would save them.

The phrase comes from the film The Roses, in which one character eats a raspberry she is allergic to to test if her husband would save her.

I decided to try eating the raspberry by dropping in front of my dog to see what he'd do.

Beating the rainbow road

When two gay men furiously masturbate each other while driving on the interstate.

My friend Jonathan certainly didn't expect he'd start beating the rainbow road with me after we got in the car to go to Burger King.
