From the people who brought you "Schadenfreude"...


Shouts of "we did it!" must be filling the streets of Hamburg and Frankfurt, because The International Association for the Study of Obesity came out with their much anticipated report for 2007:
Germany is the most Obese country in all of the Europes!


The report said 75 percent of German males and 59 percent of German females are overweight, the Suddeutsche Zeitung newspaper reported.




Way to go, Germany!

Schadenfreude in the comments section.
Try it! If you fail, others will be relieved...

The most meta of schaedenfreude experiences comes while watching Avenue Q and delighting in the fact that many of the laughing middle-aged midwesterners listening to the song "Schadenfreude" are learining about it for the first time.
