Good point. It would be pretty hard to imagine a popular line of jokes based around images of things succeeding. But that's just an unusually pure case of a general rule, I think. Maybe I'm unwittingly biased but almost all the jokes I hear are some kind of inventive invitation to laugh at someone else's expense. That just seems to be a general rule of comedy, and comedy is an extremely powerful force behind troll-like behaviour. Bad Things Happening To Other People (Especially Celebrities) is just such a potent force for entertainment across all categories that I think we can just assume it's here to stay and try to design either for or around it.
