Word of the week: Schadenfreude. Love it.
The Italians say "delectatio morosa" ("morose delectation") which sounds prettier, but I like the German. The Italian phrase also has the connotation of it being a sin, what with the whole Catholicism aspect. The German just seems to describe the simple experience of enjoying someone else's misfortune. Enjoying one's evil thoughts, if you will.
I have some evil thoughts I am enjoying today.
