We've been talking about this as if it was all about Snape being bullied at school. But of course it isn't. It's about Lily, first, last and "always".

Oh the pain!
A Sirius vrs Severus thread comes along just as my computer crashes, and I couldn't join in. I was limited to using a computer that I could read only and not send.

I agree with Pippin and Zanooda and someone else (Joey?). But I'd like to add that Snape entered the Shrieking Shack in attack mode, thinking the Trio were in mortal danger from Black and Lupin. As Pippin pointed out, he thinks Black was the traitor. Black already knew (by moments) that Snape is a teacher at Hogwarts--so what does he do? Black starts right in with the taunts. I will give Black one point---he did the same thing to Harry.

So, if I remember the real reason we got onto this thread, I don't think Snape was reliving a grudge, he had good reason to suspect both Lupin and Black at this point. And as time goes by, neither Snape nor Black relented on their intense animosity toward each other. Which, by the way, Black started in year one on the way to Hogwarts on the train.
