Nelson Muntz is the resident bully in The Simpsons, the long-running American animated sitcom, and his mocking ha-ha became one of his defining catchphrases early in the show's run. The laugh is almost always aimed at Bart Simpson or another character right after something goes wrong for them, which made it easy to lift out of context. As short clips and soundboards spread online, the two-beat laugh became a universal reaction sound for schadenfreude, still used today because it instantly signals teasing without needing any dialogue or explanation.

Nelson Muntz's mocking ha-ha laugh from The Simpsons, used to tease someone after a fail, mistake or embarrassing moment in memes and videos.
This short clip captures Nelson Muntz, the school bully from The Simpsons, delivering his trademark mocking laugh in two sharp, pointed bursts. The voice is nasal, gleeful and deliberately cruel, rising slightly on the second ha as if he is savouring someone else's misfortune. It is instantly recognisable even without the picture, because the laugh itself is the joke, a shorthand for pointing and jeering at a failure. Hearing it makes a moment feel smaller and funnier at the same time, turning embarrassment into a punchline and inviting the audience to laugh along rather than sympathise.
