Pity Ploy

A pity ploy (n.) is a term used when someone fishes for affection, compliments, or a free pass to excuse how they act by self degrading themselves to make you feel bad for them. Pity= is what the person wants from you and ploy= is the fact that they came up with a motive and plan to get pity from others. Ergo, the term pity ploy is formed. Don't be this person it's narcissistic.

Friend 1: *sends receipts of an altercation*
Friend 1: "Do you see how this bitch literally pulls an 'oh woe is me' card every time I have a valid point"
Friend 2: "omfg they do that to me too- yeah it's clear that they just wanted to come up with a pity ploy to win the argument"
Friend 1: "I know dude it's annoying as shit"

Pity-poacher

Someone who actively acts to steal the sympathy that is meant for someone else, generally by witnessing someone behave sympathetically to another and intersecting their own ( often exaggerated ) story of hardship so the sympathizer and the original beneficiary have to give the poacher all the attention and condolence. A behavior closely related to the chronic"one-upper" personality

I was telling the boss about my kid having a cold and that pity-poacher bill started lying about being born with dypheria and gout, so much for getting to clock out early, bill already got to.
