This Outcome Pleases Me Immensely

What it does

Calm satisfaction in consequences or collapse observed from a comfortably uninvolved distance.

Use it when

  • A smug prediction comes true.
  • Someone's bad plan defeats itself.
  • Drama resolves in an entertaining direction.

For example

  1. The parking thief receives the only space beneath the leaking pipe.
  2. The rival bakery copies the towering cake and cannot fit it through the door.
  3. The committee's unnecessary rule disqualifies its author.
