בבא מציעא כא

Unfortunately, it seems that there is always at least one Jew in every קהילה whose main purpose in life is to make the Rabbi’s existence miserable. Questions, Questions! It’s enough to drive a Rabbi crazy. One such מתפלל, forever plaguing the Rabbi, asked: “Why is it that the four questions are asked on פסח but not on ראש השנה or ‏תשעה באב?” “It’s very simple,” answered the Rabbi. “To see a Jew wail and moan is not unusual and raises no questions. But to see a Jew happy, that demands an explanation!”
