Back in high school when I got invited into the National Honor Society my best friend looked at the paper like I'd intentionally snubbed her and whined about how she had wanted into the NHS and it wasn't her fault her grades were crappy. So, yeah, I've seen that in action. Somehow it's not their fault when bad things happen or good things don't happen to them, but it's something you did to personally affront them when you get good things you earned.
