Get the Tangent Trapmug. In the mobile game of Evil Apples (Cards against Humanity) when a player (usually male) adds another player (usually female) as a friend, then invites them to a game and nobody else, just to chat with no intention of actually playing the game but to sext or either exchange snapchat info.
