The German language has this great word: "schadenfreude". It means: taking pleasure, however fleeting, in someone else's misfortune. (Gotta love those Germans- what other language would have a word like that!)
If you're like me, you enjoy a good laugh and there's nothing like a good laugh at the stupidity/misfortune of others. If you have a good story or see a good news article post it here for the rest of us who like to experience "schadenfreude".
Here's an example: Colfax man dies following bizarre mishap at home
Enjoy! _________________ "I play music on here I like or can at least tolerate. This is actually jeric.fm (but where's the marketability in that?). "

Hahahaha, what a great word!
We have a simular word with the same meaning in Denmark: skadefryd
But, the link you've posted doesn't work anymore _________________ *GWAH* |

Yeah, that one is pretty old. If I remember correctly, it was about some drunk guy who got his boots wet, so he put his boots (with his feet still in them) in the oven. They caught on fire, he pulled them out of the oven, started running and tripped and fell onto a bunch of broken glass and died. (It was something like that)
(I guess it is better to copy and paste the story)
Sorry about that. _________________ "I play music on here I like or can at least tolerate. This is actually jeric.fm (but where's the marketability in that?). "
