Misery Olympics

Comparing your struggles to others who are complaining about their own issues. Popularly used to undermine the importance of someone’s struggle, or to make something miserable look like it is over exaggerated or weak for complaining.
"everyone wants to compete in the misery olympics"

Misery Master

A individual who has severe western world misery. Usually failed in college and just tries to survive. For instance, working at the local post terminal or as a janitor at the hospital earning minimum wage.

The misery master dreams of a better life for himself that does include misery of any kind.
