Gabe Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Do others misery create happiness for you? Do you get mad when someone ELSE makes a big score? Do you get happy when you hear someone is going through a rougher time than you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bfo Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Honestly can answer no to all 3. The German term for this is schadenfreude, taking joy from others misery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangover Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Does rooting for the Yankees to lose at all times count? Makes local sports radio so much more entertaining.... I also enjoy the taste of Yankee fan tears.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Square Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Don't root against other gamblers to lose (well may be an exception or two) but definitely not overall. Beating the books is what we are here to try and accomplish and I rather see cash in the player's hands than the books. Plus I don't like the bad karma it creates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
