sarcasm bait

a sarcastic statement used as a test of sarcasm and/or affiliation. Used slyly, the person making the statement uses it to gain knowledge of a person's political, religious, sexual, or hobbyist interests by appearing to be on the side of the person they're talking to.

Alan: "Our Exxon Valdez rig doesn't need no stinking EPA regulations."

(ObLIvious) MIke: Yeah, money-grubbing EPA.
(Keen) Jerry: True, but that was sarcasm bait.

Alan: You're an asshole, Jerry, for saying that there should be no environmental regulation.

Netflix Bait

A theatrical film release that, while expected to be entertaining, is not sufficiently interesting enough to entice you to travel to a movie theater. So instead, you wait for the movie to be released on your preferred streaming service (not necessarily Netflix).

In other words, a good movie that's not quite worth the high price of admission (and travel) to a theater. So just stream it instead.

Movie Watcher 1: The new Fast and Furious sequel looks amazing. But I feel like the franchise isn't offering anything new.

Movie Watcher 2: Agreed. Sounds like Netflix Bait. I can wait a few months to watch it.
