Man, this show is so straight but the chemistry between the girls is amazing!

Quitbaiting

When someone quits, most of the time for 'Mental Health reasons' but comes back in a few days to a week.
They may be bipolar in some cases.

Person 1: I am quitting because of mental health reasons, im done with my youtube channel
Person 2:You've said that 2 other times this month stop quitbaiting, I dont believe you
2 DAYS LATER
Person 2 continues like nothing ever happened until the next quitbait
