negging

To put someone down or express negativity or criticism toward someone, usually in a joking or sarcastic manner.

Related to, and generally interchangeable with giving you a hard time, or to put on blast, though 'negging' is often used retroactively to express that the criticism went too far and was received as a put down.

person 1: hey sorry for negging you earlier, I was just giving you shit because your shirt was inside out. I didn't really mean it when I said you were a dork.
person 2: it's ok, I just wasn't feeling very good that day and I didn't think it was very funny, sorry for snapping at you.
