I can never understand the kind of slime that finds it in them to not just begrudge someone for how they express their own joy and laughter, but to feel confident in voicing that begrudgement like it's indicative of anything but their own complete defectiveness as a morally sound human being.

It’s simple psychology really. When someone is so angry or sad or hates themselves so much, seeing other people being happy and/or succeeding reminds them of their own pitiful existence.

I’m no psychologist, but I believe they call it envy.

Envy also being one of the cardinal sins of Christianity
