"Huck-furcht."

Except that then we wouldn't know what he meant, LOL.

This column is hard to read because it's hard to tell where the Juan Cole quote ends and Rod Dreher's word begin!

The only way I know what he meant is from the context in English, because Huckenfreude does not mean “fear of Huck,” but would mean “Hucken-joy.”

On German freeways, “Ausfahrt” means exit. Sounds like something else. :)
