Misery Hedge

Hedging your emotions by putting a bet on something you really don't want to happen, so at least you get paid if it does.

Dan: "I hope Man-U wins the cup, but I put a misery hedge on Arsenal just in case."
Matt: "How much did you put on Arsenal to win then"
Dan: "only £10. The winnings will be enough to wash away my tears if we lose".

Or

"I really hope Trump doesn't win the next election. As the odds are good, I guess I'll put $20 on him to win as a misery hedge so if he does, at least I get paid"

Misery Pig

An individual who complains about their situation but does nothing to improve or escape it and would sooner wallow in it in an endless cycle.

Often claiming they are "fine" or blaming other people or events for the downward spiral a Misery Pig expects everyone to give them sympathy and has no intention of accepting that the issues normally lie with them.

"John is saying he is feeling anxious again"
"Yes but he went through this before and never got any help even when he said he would get it sorted this time"
"What a Misery Pig"
