Facebook is great for this. Seeing people you're not especially fond of having breakups made public, chicks that shot you down in high school not going especially far in life, y'know. I'm not especially proud of the warm, fuzzy feeling I get from it, but I'm not going to apologize for it either. I figure it's fine as long as I'm not adding to someone's misery by taunting them for it or by having caused it in the first place.
To mention a specific instance, the couple that got seriously pissed of at me for teasing one of them about a watermarked picture broke up recently. Maybe the relationship issues were why they were being emotional in the first place. Regardless, I don't feel sympathetic.
When do you indulge in schadenfreude?

The answer to that question?
Frequently.

I want to hate somebody for breaking my heart, and in my rage I take my anger out on them, but there's always this Abridged Nappa-like voice going "hey Viani, we all know you're wroooooooong and you can't control how people feeeeeel"
and then I feel guilty for being irrational within minutes of the whole predicament.
Like word vomit, except it's I FUCKING HATE YOU, GO DIE YOU BACKSTABBING PIECE OF SHIThey look im really really sorry for saying that I'm being an irrational bitch please forgive me.

I said some time ago that I don't get schadenfreude, and I still don't.
Especially when it's things like (and pardon me for continually bringing this up) finding the fact that an African warlord who enslaves children is named Kony to be hee-larious. Or cracking jokes about Nuclear fallout in Japan.
Yeah. I'm a marshmallow. Sue me.
You do seem incredibly blase' about everything, if you don't mind my saying so.
well that's funny, but I'm not sure that'd be schadenfreude.
which I cannot spell. Apparently.
Whenever I play any kind of pvp, I become progressively more hammy, cruel, and degenerate.
Which is precisely why I don't do it anymore. 0_0
Mr_W: ....one of my other Christian friends passed that image on to me in Facebook. I very gently informed them that was NOT the intention of the photo and pointed them to the Snopes article.
But I do.
Hmm. I find others' suffering funny when they deserve it or if it's of a somewhat humorous nature, but most of the time I try not to.
Empathy, empathy, put yourself in place of me…
Partly it depends how people react though. If they're seriously upset, that's not funny to me.
