Which is worst? When you go to the comments to find the exact same joke you were about to make word for word, they made a much better joke on that same theme, or they made the joke but didn't execute it as well.

Word for word seems to be a "whatever, it was an obvious joke". Seeing them do it better is a "Good for you. Well done, bastard" But it really hurts to see them beat you to the punch but fumble in some way.
