Get the facebook baiting mug.A hot girl you meet or hook up with while touring or visiting a prestigious academic school and end up going to that school because you believe (mistakenly) that most girls there look/act like her.
*On a campus tour of Cornell*
Guy 1: "Dude this tour guide is hot, I am totally going here."
Guy 2: "Don't be fooled, she's just Yale bait, girls here are a 5 on average."
Girl: "I don't even go here, the campus hired me to get people to enroll."

Get the Bailey mug.The web publishing practice, usually on news or blogging sites, where something controversial is written (or a controversial headling is written) that the publisher knows will get a lot of interest from site visitors.
The ultimate goal is that the link will then appear on link aggregating sites (Digg, Fark, StumbleUpon, College Humor, Drudge, etc.), which will bring even more traffic to the site.

Get the link baiting mug.On a highway, car that passes you going way over the posted speed limit. If there is a speed trap ahead, he will get caught instead of you. See also cop cleaner. The bear part comes from "Smokey The Bear" - shortened to "Bear" - old CB'er term for a highway patrol officer because of their rather distictive headgear which resembles a national park ranger's hat.
Trucker 1: "Breaker, breaker - Jimmy, I gotta make up some time - any Bears around? Over."
Trucker 2: "Not seen any, Peter - but that young buck blew by us in the Eclipse musta been doing about 90. Bear bait fer sure. Over."

Get the bear bait mug.A catfish bait that is made up of some real nasty shit. Examples include crawfish blood, chicken guts, and beef liver. When all put together it creates one mighty stink. Heat makes the smell even worse.

Get the stink bait mug.To leave an uncomfortable place or situation, usually because someone is causing drama, bullshit or is just being annoying. Often used when someone is being frustrating enough to warrant a departure, but quite enough to justify an ass-kicking.
Guy #1: My girl is sweet, I love her so much, like... when we're together, it's perfect!
Guy #2: Dude, if you're just gonna mouth on about your feelings, I'm gonna bail. Fuck that. I don't want to hear that shit.
