Tag Baiting

When using a social media platform in which hashtags sort posts, such as Instagram, a person adds hashtags that are unrelated. Often for the sake of reaching a wider audience.
This in consequence renders the hashtag sorting system useless.

“Stop Tag baiting, this post is about how to change a tire, why did I find it in #cooking?”

Alpha Baiting

Verb. Luring an Alpha dominant personality into their most primal, aggressive state by sly and subtle entrapment.

Bill was alpha baiting Jeff by using his own words against him. The rage boiled over as Jeff’s alpha personality had no other outlook to express himself other than a huff and a puff.

Someone that is so obnoxious they convince you that their sole purpose is to test your morality.

Steven: What the fuck is that shitwad babbling about over there?

Sean: He was talking about how much of a shame it was that Bush couldn't run for a third term.

Steven: That asshat is butcher-bait for sure.
