There's something linked with this which interested me. 

1°)Harry saw horrible memories/Snape believe than Harry find that 
funny and will tell/Snape goes angry.

2°)Snape saw horrible memories/Harry believe than Snape find that 
funny and will tell/ Harry goes angry.

But we know that Harry never thought to speak, and what he saw (from 
the child crying to the pensieve) joined the secrets kept from Ron 
and Hermione. So apparently, he's better than Snape.

BUT, even if in a way, he's better, Snape never talk either.

Cedric, Cho, the Dursley, he never said one thing to Harry, in 
Occlumency or elsewhere. It's not for fear that Harry talk, because 
it didn't stop him to provoke him in class after.

I found it interesting that Snape has a limit, in his strange morals 
system. Safe if I missed something, he never used what he saw in 
Harry's head (with the bad memories, not the Voldy's dream). 

It's one of this situation where Harry and Snape has the same 
reaction, from the decision to kept the silent to the anger with the 
other (or vice-versa).
