Schadenfreude

Schadenfreude - enjoying the discomfort of other. We aren't meant to do it, but some days, it is just irresistible.

Today I got to laugh at my friend M as he learnt some important lessons:
  1. Not everything should be made into a shot. Soy sauce for example is not a good idea.
  2. When hung over and nauseous, a bucket of ice water over the head will help, but your friends and their neighbours will laugh at you if you do it in the backyard.
  3. Hangover cure smoothies may help replenish lost minerals, but taste awful. Expect no sympathy.
I did feel sorry for him, he looked pretty terrible, but when it is self inflicted, you can't help but laugh as well.
