Do you want justice, or do you want someone else to suffer?
This works particularly well online. You don't know the person, their work, their circumstances, their relationships. Yet you know enough to enjoy bad news about them. If the facts don't cooperate, switch to style. Too pleased with themselves. Too loud about it. Living too beautifully. A normal person wouldn't smile like that. Sometimes behind all this is a simple demand: please stop reminding me of what hasn't worked out for me.
