bigot-bait

Strategy often used by like-miners and like-farmers to mindlessly dismiss often accurate observations and opinions. Using assorted logical fallacies that appeal to common bigots, they quickly get likes and hearts for their efforts from the deluded masses.
Using straw-man and ad hominem as bigot-bait, the hopelessly deluded like-miner chooses rabble-rousing over rational discourse.

trout bait

Fully expecting to be slapped, Jimmy slugged a shot, walked up to Susan and trout baited her. Surprisingly, she did not seem to mind. "Is that all you got, walleye?" she giggled, "I was expecting a man!"

fanboy baiting

A phrase with two meanings:

1) When the writer(s) of a geek franchise introduce backstory, characters, rules, lists of information, and other continuity details that are intentionally vague, contradictory, and unresolved. The intent is to provoke fan wank and other arguments while always having the carrot of "this issue, we find THIS out!" to dangle in front of fans. Mainstream superhero comics run almost exclusively on this.

2) When a blogger or other editorial writer does an in-depth analysis of a creative work radically counter to the assumptions of its fanbase in order to provoke outrage and fan wank. Usual tactics include "over-analyzing" fantastical elements (e.g. "Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex"), unflattering interpretations of the themes, and otherwise presenting valid arguments why the story does not logically work.
1) Kingdom Hearts creator Tetsuya Nomura's introduction of a dozen vague, unresolved plot points and refusal to clarify anything is classic fanboy baiting.

2) I wrote a fanboy-bait article explaining why Usagi of Sailor Moon is a terrible role-model. I bet I'll have a hundred pissed-off comments by tonight.

frau bait

A combination of "frau", which is German for "Mrs." or "woman" and the word "bait", in the sense of tempting someone, the contemporary meaning of "frau bait" is two-fold:
1) a good-looking, almost pretty, young man who appeals to (often older) women
2) soft, sensitive, romantic or non-macho qualities, gestures or abilities displayed by a male, which are stereotypically thought to be appealing to women
1) With those lovely long blond locks, the band members were all frau bait. Did you hear all the screaming in the audience?

2) If you want to score with her, bring her a single red rose. That's always total frau bait.
