Ah, slightly harder to say than schadenfreude though

Nicky: Schadenfreude - what's that, some kind of n@zi word?

Gary: Yep - it's German for the happiness at the misfortune of others.

Nicky: Happiness at the misfortune of others??? That is German!

If only there was some kind of word that meant happiness at the misfortune of others.....

I thought football threads should be started in LR?

Those times are past now, and in the past they must remain!

Bloody hell - you and Minestrone being civil to each other? Crikey... what next?

My missus was translator/interpretor/steward for the massed hordes of Zenit fans at the game to which I think you allude.

Her role, should she have chosen to accept it, was to tell several thousand pissed-up russkies that they can't stand up, can't smoke and can't drink within sight of the pitch.....

I wasn't alluding to any particular game, just providing a(n untypically for me) measured response to Minestrone's bigoted rant.

(It's a line from "Flower of Scotland")

Manchester has a lot to be thankful to both the Germans and the Irish as both brought a large amount of redevelopment to the city!

At least it was the friendly huns this time, there was not 150,000 of them pissing all over the street, singing the sash and beating up the coppers.

Fergie also had a bit of a moan about the fact that the German "sprinted" over to get the lad sent off.

Come on Fergie - you started all this hounding the ref ages ago

[cailin maith]

Indeed. The Irish can never be accused of singing loudly in the streets

But if they were Irish, I wouldn't have been afraid of shouting out the window for them to shut the f3ck up!!
