Hello everyone,
I am looking for a phrasal verb that is used in the meaning of "giving somebody an opportunity to make a joke". I thought it was something like "set up" (as in "he set me up for that joke with his stupid remark") but I could not find this meaning in the dictionary anywhere, so I'm guessing I got it mixed up somehow. Could anyone please tell me what the correct phrasal verb with that meaning is?
Thank you
Andrea
