Schadenfreude - Like it? Want it?

[Maerua]

I'm quite the sadist p***k, so yes. I DO enjoy it.

Especially in Lifestyle Discussion.

It is spelt Schadenfreude, you missed the C.

Anyway, I love watching other peoples misfortune in RL, but not on Gaia.

This entire thread reminds me of the musical Avenue Q, Schadenfreude is the theme for one of the shows songs.
I love Avenue Q, lots.

Yeah, it's funny sometimes... The other day I saw a good one in the Cosplay Avaatar Arena:

Some girl had put up her avatar and added a description that went like this: "This is me and I'll never change, the image speaks for itself so I need no explanations"

Remember, that's the COSPLAY arena, not the original one.

So I went to see the comments she recieved and was pretty pleased with what I saw. People were destroing her and one I saw was particularly good. It was something like this: "look up for the following in the internet:
1 - Cosplay
2- Image Reference
3 - NOOB

Dude these days most of my enjoyment comes from other people's suffering. Because, let's face it... other people's misfortune is hilarious.

I think what made me the most giddily amused lately was the BAWWWfest that came after Adult Timmy was unveiled. I laughed so goddamned hard.

I'll be honest - I visit the Life Issues forum just to explore how miserable people are. ._. Yeah, sure, I'll feel sorry for 'em, but I get a kick out of people that obviously have karma kicking their a**. Just the other day, I read a post about someone who decided to repeatedly cheat on their dedicated boyfriend, only to have everyone they know find out and turn against that person. I found myself smiling from ear to ear when most of the replies were something along the lines of, "Glad to see you got what's coming to you."

I don't laugh at Schadenfreude related to Gaia, but at the fact that people are getting so worked up over a pixel doll website. rofl ...but I get in those situations myself sometimes, so I also laugh at my own hypocrisy. > 3>

Off topic but related to Schadenfreude, I often laugh at deaths too, like Quom. But only if it's like... an ironic death or if it was like something out of an action movie. But my parents know very well I laugh at this stuff.

I like posting failpics in the "I need a GF/BF threads". I just can't help it.

Well, in that case, that s**t's hilarious because she might have realized this would eventually happen. lol

Self-professed grammar Nazis who make syntax errors, spelling Nazis who make spelling errors. It warms the cockles of my stony heart. whee
Hackers getting hacked too, but you don't hear about it that often. I'm sure it does show up. Like those people who try to download software to hack accounts, but then it mines their info.

I lol whenever someone buys a super overpriced item by mistake.

I've done it once, but gained it back through the market the same day.

But whenever I see someone else do it, I lol.

I'm a sadist, so take from that what you will >___>;

I'm usually not very open about my pleasure in others suffering, though.. because I'm not CRUEL..I just can't help it that I chuckle when I think about someone elses misery gonk

Don't worry, Lilly. I'll be cruel enough for both of us. whee

Okay, here, you can laugh at my obtuseness: it only just dawned on me what your signature refers to. I've seen them before and gone, "uh-huh, toilet." Just now I glanced at it and said, "Oh. Duh."

So I thought I'd tell you so you-all could have a laugh.

I've been blamed for not being empathetic. but I am more empathetic than many. I am. *kind* :>

It's just if someone does something what they can only blame themselves for... they got what they deserved. People need to learn from their mistakes.

I enjoy funny accidents of others as long as they don't really get hurt. I met a nice guy who laughed at other people dying and I don't mean those Darwin award worthy deaths. We didn't get along anymore after our little chat about humor. ._.
