20 people who are probably having a far worse day than you are
We all have those days where everything goes wrong for us. But have you ever suffered misfortunes like the 20 poor souls here?
A certain generation owes a huge debt to Lisa Simpson for teaching them the word schadenfreude, meaning shameful joy in German. We all like to laugh at the funny misfortunes of others, as long as they’re not too dark.
The 20 misfortunes below will give you a healthy dose of schadenfreude without too much of the schaden:
