sympathy whore
people who thrive on bad news; who always want to be “in on the action” when there is a disaster/tragedy; who try to find any personal connection, no matter how remote, to the current tragedy; and who make things sound more serious/emotional/melodramatic than they really are — as a way of drawing attention to themselves more than anything else.
similar to, but more specific than a drama queen. a sympathy wh-r- gravitates towards an event, be it a plane crash, flood, serious illness or the death of someone else.
different from a drama ho.

someone who insists on expounding every detail about every issue in their life every time they see you in hopes you’ll feel bad for them. somehow these people always have a lot of terrible things happen to them. even though you do feel bad for them, you get tired of hearing about it.
