schadenfreudist

n. A person that attempts to enact schadenfreude on another person (i.e., "feeling pleasure from the misfortune of others"), often by engaging in ad hominem attacks and general douchebaggery. This is seen quite frequently in the activity of trolls, the sad creatures that they are. It is believed by some that trolls may actually feed on their schadenfreude, but not enough data has been compiled to accurately confirm this.

Schadenfreude

The joy, existential validation, and downright delicious pleasure received by watching, reading of, hearing of, or even, occasionally, causing an enemy's downfall. And by enemies, I mean also friends.
Ever since November 8, I have been watching election night coverage on CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox, and The Young Turks just for the orgasmic Schadenfreude of it. Yum!
