When somebody puts their owns looks, intelligence, talent, situation, etc down while someone else close to them has it worse than them. Can also be called diagonal deprecation. For example, if a person says âIâm so stupidâ with a 4.0 GPA, itâs kinda rude when your friend has a 3.7.
Tom: âGod Iâm such an idiot. A 97 in math.â
Fred: âI got an 87.â :(
Fredâs head: âDoes he know about lateral deprecation?â
