Schadenfreude
N/A

Posted on 03/03/2005 10:23:50 AM PST by Right Wing It

I was unaware up until this point that there was a German word meaning "happiness at the misfortune of others" The Word is "SCHADENFREUDE". What makes it ironic is that it is the only national language in the world to have a word for such a subject. Who else thinks there should be an American word for this?

You forgot to mention - save the yellow congealed fat and use as a butter substitute on dark rye or pumpernickle. Better than Schmaltz!

Well, maybe I saw one. No pancake, though. He didn't smile at us. The kids (in the van) were pointing at his flag plate and talking. Maybe he thought we were being critical, but they were saying, "Hey, cool! Maybe he's in the Sons of Confederate Veterans! Mama, that looks just like Conspiracy Guy, only with more beard!"

Would/did I suggest otherwise?


ATTENTION, K-MART SHOPPERS! THERE IS A LOST THREAD WAITING TO BE PICKED UP BY ITS POSTER AT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE DESK.

IT IS WEARING A FLANNEL SHIRT, AND HAS A PANCAKE ON ITS HEAD.

Didn't you see my new bumper hitch?

However, I'm still grappling with problems involving bridges and curves.
