Schadenfruede 

A song from the fucking hilarious musical "Avenue Q". It's also a German word meaning happiness at the misfortune of others.

Nicky: Hmm...Schadenfruede, huh? What is that? Some kind of Nazi word?
Gary: Yep! It's German for "happiness at the misfortune of others"!
Nicky: Happiness at the misfortune of others...that is German!

Kyle: What is this feeling when you watch a Vegetarian eat chicken or a Frat boy realize just what he put his dick in?
Lize: Schadenfruede!

schadenfreude 

German word, original translation loosely comes out as 'malicious joy'. In English, it's thought of 'malicious enjoyment from the suffering of another'. As there is no succinct English version of the word, English-speaking peoples have approximated this word and use it whenever they see people like corrupt CEOs get dragged off to jail.

Did you see that look on Fastow's face as he was told he couldn't take soap-on-a-rope to the lockup? Man, I felt a warm, comforting sense of schadenfreude in my gut when I saw it...

When LeBron James and the Miami Heat lost the 2011 NBA finals, all of Cleveland reached a schadenfreudegasm.

schadenfreude 

pleasure derived from others' troubles.

although "schadenfreude" seems widely known I've never heard it being used in casual conversation.

Probably it's more the problem of not knowing how to pronounce it. I've heard "skäidenfruhd," for instance :)
