Bait and Switch

One of the more common forms of shitposting. A video with something on the cover that will make you click on it. (eg. an anime girl in a bikini) Then the actual video is a shitpost, usually making fun of you for being a horny bastard or sudden ear rape.
Guy 1: Did you see the new video someone posted in #nsfw? I heard it's really saucy.
Guy 2: It's just a bait and switch. I was expecting boobs but instead got my ears blown off by Scout from TF2.

Bait and Switch

A form of humor where the audience expects something obvious to happen, but then something else happens/appears out of nowhere.
Bait and Switch Example:

(ASDF)

Bully: "Hey, you four-eyed freak!"

Guy with glasses: "Ah..."

(The screen zooms out, revealing a third person; a midget who LITERALLY has four eyes)

"...Don't listen to him!"

(The guy with four eyes screeches at him)

Bait and Switch Bottom

A gay man who misrepresents himself as a top to attract men, when in fact, he's a big old bottom.
That guy I took home last night was a total Bait and Switch Bottom. I came out of the bathroom and found him face-down-ass-up on my bed. What a dump.

Your friend's children who are so well behaved and perfect, it lulls you into thinking parenthood is easy and into having one of your own-- which will inevitably be very, very misbehaved.

workplace bait and switch

When you are hired by an organization and are told that your position is one big adventure to get you to accept less pay but it turns out to be a boring assignment that is much less interesting and glamorous.
I was charmed and brown-nosed all through the interview and then hired to do the work of a near-god, but I quickly discovered that I was the newest victim of their workplace bait and switch scam.

Moderate Bait and Switch

When a candidate for political office, runs a political campaign portraying themselves to the public as being political moderate then where the candidate actually stands on various political issues in an effort to broaden their appeal to a larger group of voters.

Upon winning the political office the candidate ran for, the new elected Politician then reveals themselves to the public to be a partisan hardliner who instead of working with both parties, toes the political party line that they are affiliated with. Often pushing for policies that the party they affiliated with wants regardless of what they pledged on the campaign trail.
Despite portraying himself as not being a partisan hardliner during the General Election campaign, Senator Smith pulled a Moderate Bait and Switch on the voters of the state that elected him and proceeded to vote in favor of policies he said he would not support on the campaign trail
