More Evidence Rush is a Lurker on Free Republic...

Rush just used the word "schadenfreude." It's more evidence Rush is a lurker on here...

[TheBigB]

Wait til Rush says he has to hop in the shower because his sister just got bit by a moose.

THAT'S evidence.

[talleyman]

"Schadenfreude" ("puting shoes on a shrink") is getting a lot of play lately, right along with "Treason's First Cousin"...

[Viking2002]

If we can help Rush (or any of the others) to express their ideas more eloquently (or more to the point, for that matter), then I consider that a public service, by God. :-) If they're lurking, it shows that they actually give a damn about what's going on out here, as opposed to the Nanny State overlords.

[Alter Kaker]

I knew the word "schadenfreude" LONG before I ever heard of Free Republic. I wouldn't base too much on this.

I knew word "shadenfreude" LONG before I ever "learned" English, which is to say, started to study it.

Can Jim Rob chart if any of our members didn't post for the past five weeks? ;)

[KarlInOhio]

Or if he plays the Immigrant Song while Zotting a caller.

[John Lenin]

There are a lot of media lurkers on FR, where else can you go and see all the top headlines from around the country and world in one place ? It would be shocking if journalists didn't lurk here.

[AdamSelene235]

I learned the word when I was 13 reading the New Yorker.

Rush reads the New Yorker !!!??

"Can Jim Rob chart if any of our members didn't post for the past five weeks?"

I didn't post for nine weeks this summer and I wasn't even in rehab.

[proust]

William F. Buckley used and defined the word "schadenfreude" on the back cover blurb of Rush's first book, "The Way Things Ought to Be" which came out 11 years ago.

[Pyro7480]

That's true...

[JFC]

Rush, if you do lurk. We support you 100%. I do wonder about Marta, I have not heard you mention her since you have returned. You just said thank God you don't have kids. I would think you would consider your step kids your kids... my hubby does.

[Paved Paradise]

Exactly. I always loved that word but there are a lot of language-challenged individuals out there. Use a word with more than six or seven letters and they're baffled.

[HardStarboard]

FR is a must stop for "show prep" for all the smart Conservative talkshow hosts!

Or it could be just the opposite - ya think!!!!

[DefCon]

Schadenfreude!

[Snake65]

I'll believe it when Rush says: "This is series, folks. Hugh! So series I need to hop in the shower."

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Your "evidence" doesn't seem very conclusive...but it beats lurking around CVS.

[Physicist]

I don't get it.

It could also mean that he attended our church service yesterday - - the minister used and defined the expression. I'm not sure that Rush was traveling in Maryland yesterday though and I think I would have seen him. Maybe he joined the early service instead - - but no - - I think one of the people would have noticed him in his "No Boundaries" tie and said something.
