Taking pleasure in the suffering and misfortune of others and also taking pleasure in feeling bad about that joy.
Masochistic schadenfreude is the key to happiness in a modern world, where we only interact through social media. I think your suffering is funny. That makes me feel bad. I like that too.

1. a kind of joyous or victorious feeling that one experiences when some type of misfortune befalls a competitive friend or frenemey, which is immediately followed by guilt
Dude 1: Kurt's ex-grilfriends have started a band, and they make fun of him really bad in all of their songs. Guess what? They just got offered a major label record deal for a lot of money.
Dude 2: Wow. Well, I'm experiencing a kind of semi schadenfreude right now. Kurt is my pal, but he definitely had it coming.

A new name for the "funny" bone, as it's really not so funny when it happens to you. But when it happens to someone else, it sparks feelings of schadenfreude.
*buddy smacks his humerus while working*
buddy: Aw, frig, I can't even feel my arm!
guy: Haha, hit your schadenfreude bone, did we? Sooo glad I'm not you.

The feeling of complete joy and power you feel when you kill an oryx with a sheild operator and cause them to rage quit.
"Ohhhh fuck, that oryx is dashing, I'm screwed."

Oryx has left the match.
Ahhh I love my schadenfreude casserole with a side of salty tears.
