There's A Word For That?

Yes, Ladies and Gentlemen, there is a word for that nasty bit of satisfaction or pleasure you feel at someone else's misfortune.  It is called: schadenfreude (pronounced shaw'-den-froy'-duh. What? It's German).


Can you imagine? We actually borrowed a word to aptly describe that awful happiness when others are down from bad luck.


The craziness.
