feeding the octopus 

Complimenting someone or gassing them up to the point where you're feeding their excessive ego, like a greedy, hungry octopus. 'Octopus' is also phonetically similar to solipsism, the idea that only the self exists.

Taunting the Octopus

When your exploit your ex-girlfriend's emotional weaknesses in an effort to extract a desired emotional outburst. Often used as a way to 'stay in touch' over IM in those harsh periods after a breakup in which you need to cause suffering in order to feel better about yourself.
Guy 1: She came online complaining about my inability to commit so I told her she's an over-emotional head case that just needs a good ass-fucking from some guy she won't 'fall in love' with between initial insertion and the final pull-out.

Guy 2: Dude... You're totally taunting the octopus on that one. I bet she cried herself to sleep. Good on ya!
