Naidhana-bait

A practice by superstitious indians who believe naidhana is the mostinauspicious day, but experience nothing wrong, and so as not to anger what they believe is fate, provoke bad situations to "fulfill" the inauspicious day.

Everything was going fine, but my brother started picking fights by leaving trash out then claiming I did it. It was obvious he was picking a fight. I saw his astrology notbook and saw why. He totally Naidhana-baited me because God-forbid he's happy for once.
