(This kinda goes along with the Peeves? thread.)

For those of you clicking the thread to find out what schadenfreude means, it is "pleasure derived from the misfortunes of others". Not a particularly healthy emotion, but what the heck, we all get it at times.

For me, I get a perverse kick when my football team wins a game. I love to go to the website of the opposing team's newspaper and read their local sports columnists complaining or whining about how bad the loss was.

So, what does it for you?
