Oh boy, my t is a pro at this. She has got this technique down to a science.

There are two teenage alters she especially loves to do this to, and quite frankly, i kind of like to watch it happen, because they both totally deserve it

she pokes, they react, eventually theres a bunch of emotional reaction from said teens, (she can be subtle or totally transparent, and they still fall for it every time), eventually they catch on most of the time and start telling her f- you, and argument entails, and the fun really get started.
She gets me too, but on more emotional topics, usually trying to provoke tears, not anger.there are several different subjects she can bring up with me that will get me to spill my guts.
