[00:03.58] Right now you are down and out and feeling really crappy
[00:10.22] I'll say.
[00:11.45] And when I see how sad you are
[00:14.41] It sort of makes me...
[00:16.93] Happy!
[00:18.72] Happy?!
[00:20.24] Sorry, Nicky, human nature-
[00:23.38] Nothing I can do!
[00:26.14] It's...
[00:26.94] Schadenfreude!
[00:29.71] Making me feel glad that I'm not you.
[00:33.63] Well that's not very nice, Gary!
[00:35.79] I didn't say it was nice! But everybody does it!
[00:39.10] D'ja ever clap when a waitress falls and drops a tray of glasses?
[00:44.99] Yeah...
[00:45.55] And ain't it fun to watch figure skaters falling on their asses?
[00:51.35] Sure!
[00:51.91] And don'tcha feel all warm and cozy,
[00:55.11] Watching people out in the rain!
[00:57.32] You bet!
[00:57.93] That's...
[00:58.73] Schadenfreude!
[01:01.50] People taking pleasure in your pain!
[01:05.31] Oh, Schadenfreude, huh?
[01:07.46] What's that, some kinda Nazi word?
[01:09.36] Yup! It's German for "happiness at the misfortune of others!"
[01:12.74] "Happiness at the misfortune of others." That is German!
[01:16.98] Watching a vegetarian being told she just ate chicken
[01:23.02] Or watching a frat boy realize just what he put his dick in!
[01:29.76] Being on the elevator when somebody shouts "Hold the door!":
[01:35.35] "No!!!"
[01:36.58] Schadenfreude!
[01:39.35] "Fuck you lady, that's what stairs are for!"
[01:44.20] Ooh, how about...
[01:45.67] Straight-A students getting Bs?
[01:47.39] Exes getting STDs!
[01:49.03] Waking doormen from their naps!
[01:50.55] Watching tourists reading maps!
[01:52.10] Football players getting tackled!
[01:53.88] CEOs getting shackled!
[01:55.39] Watching actors never reach
[01:56.74] The ending of their oscar speech!
[01:59.02] Schadenfreude!
[02:02.27] Schadenfreude!
[02:05.46] Schadenfreude!
[02:08.72] Schadenfreude!
[02:11.30] The world needs people like you and me who've been knocked around by fate.
[02:17.64] 'Cause when people see us, they don't want to be us,
[02:20.76] and that makes them feel great.
[02:23.72] Sure!
[02:24.33] We provide a vital service to society!
[02:29.61] You and me!
[02:31.15] Schadenfreude!
[02:33.85] Making the world a better place...
[02:37.17] Making the world a better place...
[02:40.36] Making the world a better place...
[02:44.98] To be!
[02:48.25] S-C-H-A-D-E-N-F-R-E-U-D-E!
