When your at a restaurant and your waiter is enthusiastic & super nice and you feel extra special, only to see that he does the same thing to the people at the table next to you.
Waiter: You guys look like a fun crowd!!
You: Thank you!
(Waiter goes to the next table)
Waiter: You guys look like a fun crowd!!

Get the Waiter-Envymug. The phenomenon that outdoor runners may experience wherein one runner, while tackling a particularly daunting incline, crosses paths with a runner enjoying the downhill while traveling in the opposite direction. The uphill runner might inwardly direct strong feelings of jealousy toward the downhill runner's good fortune that can only come during the exhaustion and red-faced all-out effort of a literal uphill battle. This is downhill envy. In special circumstances, such as those in which the downhill runner offers audible or visual expressions of encouragement or solidarity, downhill envy may even manifest in the uphill runner's outward utterance of disdain at the downhill runner's perceived condescension.

Friend: Hey, how was your run?
Runner: I've had better. I was trying to haul ass up this one particularly vicious incline, but it was a serious struggle. What made it worse was this guy happily bounding down the hill in the opposite direction.
Friend: Damn. Downhill envy.
Runner: Mmm hmm.

Get the Downhill Envymug. Stinging ping of failure that the bands from the 90's Wave of "Lookout! Records" Pop Punk bands express, at their loss of fame, compared to the success of acts like Green Day and Rancid, while continuing to propagate the facade that they are legitimate and valid "rock stars".
While watching the Trump rally today on FOX, Green Day came on during a Pepsi commercial, and Ben spent the rest of the day pining with "Lookout Envy.""

Get the access envymug. Shortly after planting tomatoes in the urban garden in your backyard, patio, balconey, hydroponic or inverted planter, you notice that everyone else's tomato plants are taller, leafier, greener and possessing more and bigger tomatoes than your plants.
"How are your tomato plants coming along?" Zeke asked Dana.
"They suck! I have serious tomato-envy because Rhoda planted her's TWO WEEKS after I did and she already has tomatoes! I have one measly little green one!" Dana replied.

Get the tomato-envymug. Cellular envy? Naaah, I'm quite fine with my old trusty Nokia. After all, I use my cell phone for communicating, for calling people. I like to keep things separated.
