bait and bitch

A strategy extant in gender feminist culture designed to bait men into responding to a woman's charm, and then ridiculing them for reacting, thus "teaching" them to not react.

His friendly "I'd like to get to know you" overture met with a bait and bitch lecture.

Tip baiting

Promising a big tip, usually with an online order, then changing the tip or eliminating it altogether when the service was great, just to be a cheap asshat.

"I'm risking corona just to deliver these bougie jerks' groceries and half of them are tip baiting me! I have bills, too!"

tornado bait

poor white trash, usually living in trailors

The 10 people living in the one trailor could only muster 10 or 12 teeth between them, they certainly must be tornado bait.

moriarty baiting

When you write a show, and you can't excite your audience with nothing but empty promises of a long-dead villain appearing over and over again in every situation you can put him into without saying he's alive or dead. You're trying to keep your audience, but you'll never gonna bring him back, while basically basing your whole show on the fact that he MIGHT be back. It's bad writing and it makes people sad.

"Did you see the new season of Sherlock? Is Jim really alive?"
"Nah, it was a total moriarty baiting the whole time... there's Sherlock's evil sister instead."

hate-bait

When someone posts something online(usually a video or comment), for the sole purpose of getting hate comments/interactions. The same way clickbait is purposely outlandish and misleading so people click on it, hate-bait is usually ridiculous or hateful so people react to it.

Jasper: “Did she really just say that?”
Henry: “Nah, bro that’s just hate-bait, ignore it.”

Dick Bait

Dick bait is like click bait but persuades people to click on it with promises of seeing pictures of Dick Van Dyke, only to be met with the sad, lonely face of Sarah Jessica Parker.

"I just got tricked by some serious dick bait, man."
"Oh, really? Were they long and black or thick and Polynesian?"
"Dude, Dick Van Dyke is white. Show some goddamn respect."

Lesbian Baiting

When a straight girl acts like she’s interested in another girl just so she can come out to her.

Lesbian girl: I came out to Amelia because I thought she was interested in me, then she ditched me
Friend: What gave you the indication that she was a lesbian?
Lesbian girl: She kept flirting with me.
Friend: She was lesbian baiting you
