lol the pettiness of some people

[-] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 27 points 2 weeks ago

We don’t know that was why they denied it, this could be shadenfreud (sp?) because they would be denied regardless.

At least I choose to believe that, because I can’t imagine being petty enough to do that.

„Schadenfreude“

[-] Successful_Try543@feddit.org 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Usually, one feels Schadenfreude when something bad 'just' happens to somebody else, like Karma, but not due to ones own actions.

And then you exclaim: "Haha, du Schaf!"

Right? "Made me cry on a school trip" (for reasons that I'm sure we're totally out of line on the teacher's part and omitted just for brevity's sake)

[-] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago

Well, OP is just an asshole then. (I'm guessing this isn't really OPs post)

[-] bizarroland@fedia.io 33 points 2 weeks ago

They didn't say they rejected it out of revenge.

Maybe the teacher was a shitty mortgage applicant with terrible credit and multiple foreclosures and the fact that they got to reject the application was just the cherry on top.

[-] ch00f@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, I'm pretty sure there are some strict guidelines around mortgage application acceptance or rejection.

Are you telling me personal petty revenge isn't a certified approved bank reason?!

[-] ray@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago

I bet the real reason they were rejected is because their only income is a teacher's salary. That's not enough to afford a house these days

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

This is not my post, no. It is incredibly petty!

Yeah, this is no where near enough revenge. She needs to go bigger.

To estimate the size of the act, one should use a banana.

For scale.

[-] peregrin5@lemm.ee 6 points 2 weeks ago

There are some teachers I had who were absolutely bad people, but honestly, they are teachers and you are not. You already have the best revenge.

Six years ago my former coworker's house burnt down and I gave them a decent amount of money, no strings.

Three weeks ago the same person gave me a job making 30% more money than I was.

It goes around the nice way too sometimes.

To normal people: be nice to kids because they need the support and encouragement to grow into stable adults with a healthy sense of self worth.

To the selfish people: be nice to kids because you never know when you might need their mercy in the future.

[-] Sillyglow@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 weeks ago

Have you seen what kind of people a spoilt child turns into? It’s tyranny. That’s not a selling point.

[-] Nangijala@feddit.dk 1 points 2 weeks ago

It says a lot about you that your takeaway from my comment was that being kind and encouraging to kids is spoiling them.

I think they're hot too.
