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?

...last time i post anything irrelevant...

That's just it, posting anything irrelevant in the first place is just asking for abuse. In the time you have been here, you should have been able to guess what your vanity post would have happen to it...

"Who else thinks there should be an American word for this?"

The words you are looking for are "LIBERAL DEMOCRAT".
