Recently spoke with a friend of mine, an Ohio graduate (not on this board) who lives and works in West Virginia, who because of this interacts with many Marshall fans. Most of them are pleasant, but many are still quite bitter about the fact that Ohio beat Marshall back in September. It reminded him of the German term "Schadenfreude," which means joy at the misery of others - as in he relishes the fact that Marshall fans are still miserable about the Herd having lost to Ohio.

Anybody else on this board experience that as well over the last few weeks?

Since the Western game, I've only been experiencing weltschmerz.

Did any of this affect your weltanschauung?
