Sudden, intense hatred derived from watching a particularly appetizing dish, that you think is yours, being delivered to a nearby table; and realizing you still have to wait.
Hank was eagerly aniticpating his scallops when the waiter brought a dish of scallops to the man at the table next to him. Having thought that was his dish, Hank began to feel the anguish of dish envy.

The undeniable feeling of envy people who drive other SUV's feel for people who drive Jeeps. The most commonly envied Jeep being the Wrangler, but its known that all Jeeps convey at least a little bit of envy from drivers of lesser SUV's.
People suffering from this envy will most likely roll around town in his or her Chevy Blazer or Toyota Rav4, and talk shit about Jeep's to everyone they know and talk about how there piece of shit can do a lot better off-road when it really can't. They most likely bought their current SUV trying to act young, and be "cool" again, but since they didn't buy a Jeep they just have to act like they don't want one.
The cure for this is to of course, buy a Jeep.
Guy 1: "That Jeep Tj is such a piece of shit, my Toyota Rav4 is better then it any day."
Guy 2: "Really? How? Bet you can't take the doors and top off of that Rav4, or go off-roading in it can you?"
Guy 1: "I could go off-roading in my Rav4, anyways your Jeep doesn't get over 20mpg on the highway, and its loud, and it rides rough, which means it sucks."
Guy 2: "It's a Jeep thing, you wouldn't understand."
Guy 1:(Jeep Envy growing stronger) "Yeah, thats what everyone who drives one says so people think they like them."
Guy 2: "Well I can see you got Jeep Envy so I'm just gonna leave, I have better things to be doing, then arguing with you. Go buy a Jeep, you'll feel better and won't seem so pissed off at the world. Peace Out."

The concept that because you had to struggle with something, then all others deserve to struggle as you did.
Folks are getting mad that other's student loans may be forgiven, just because they have struggle-envy, because if they had it hard, everyone else has to too!
Trying to type what you are searching for before a search engine can suggest it.
"I get search envy whenever I use Google. I can't type what I'm looking for without Google suggesting it first."
Related to Desk envy. A patient suffering from office envy will when walking into an office of another company feel overwhelmed with a sense of envy. He or she will be found staring or touching the large well- proportioned desks, big round, beautifully curved meeting tables and soft shaggy carpets.
Having seen these large, massive desks, curved tables and soft carpeting he or she will be thinking about them all the time and comparing them to their own smaller, uglier and bad-proportioned office, leading to office envy.
Herb clearly suffers from office envy, every time he walks into a client's meeting room he forgets about the sales and can't keep his hands off the furniture.

When your main course meal arrives at a restaurant and you instantly regret the order after seeing the plate of someone else that appears far more appetizing.
Tony: Wow, I'm having some serious entre envy after seeing your chicken parm.
Deloris: Yeah, this is going to be way better than the clams casino that you ordered.

The overwhelming need or desire to have stronger/better ability to work with and manipulate technology. Typically found in people with little or no technical ability, this condition can cause feelings of inferiority and inadequacy.
John: Allen just doesn't get it. He can barely turn his computer on and he wants to be a programmer.
Chris: Yeah, he has major geek envy.
