Instagame

verb/noun
The game instagrammers play in order to gain more followers/likes. Common tactics include following your prey until they follow you back and then promptly unfollowing them or using hashtags such as #follow4follow and #like4like. Another example would be asking someone to follow you and then not following them back after they have followed you.

instigate

To start a conflict between other people just so you can watch. Can be between friends, between enemies, or between friends and enemies. Usually involves saying "he said she said you suck!" or some other much more colorful variant. Occasionally falls under the subtle art of interpreting a comment as incorrectly as is plausible.

Drew: "Why do you look so angry, Jordan?"

Akira: "I heard someone say the other day that Jordan doesn't like you, Drew."

Drew: "WHAT!"

Jordan: "Wait, I never said..."

Akira: "...Didn't you wonder where your milkshake went the other day, Jordan? Drew stole it."

Jordan: "WHAT!"

Akira: "That's cuz Drew thinks your haircut is ugly."

Jordan: "Oh really?!!"

Akira: "...And wants to challenge you to a duel."

Drew: "Whoa Akira, why are you trying to instigate?!"

Instigator

Someone that encourages escalation of actions, then pretends to be concerned about resolution, compromise, justice, intervention, and other shit like that once something bad does actually happen, they want everybody to love them all of sudden, no matter what they did or who they did or were involved in doing it to (a 7 year old kid, for example).

The girl's family knew she was always an instigator who thought it was funny to escalate bad things to happen, then pretend to be concerned about finding resolution, compromise, intervention, or peace (Hitler also claimed to be concerned about seeking peace). Unlike some people seemed to, they didn't think she was scary to be around, they thought she was more mouthy than anything else.
