This is a question Schadenfreude

There's nothing like administering first aid to cyclist who has just spanged into the back of a milk float when you have tears of laughter running down your face. The world is just one long episode of You've Been Framed - when have you laughed at the misfortune of others?

Nick
Nick was our Dungeon Master when we used to play Dungeons and Dragons about twenty years ago, and was well into it. The games with him at the helm oozed with imagination and rich story telling. Anyway, after one night's adventuring in the 'Caves of the Shadow Seer' or something people began leaving. I can't remember why, but Nick left first, and about ten minutes later someone calmly lifted up a pair of shoes and said 'Look, Nick forgot his shoes!' It was the middle of Winter and I think he left first because he had furthest to go, in the middle of London. Given about ten minutes had passed I did think it curious he might have noticed he was walking along the street just in his socks, and turned back sooner (well like the moment he stepped out the front door). No one else was surprised as they had all been to the same school as him and knew Nick much better and longer than me, and he apparently had a history of flipping out like this and slightly odd behaviour. I was chuckling about it to myself all the way home picturing Nick walking home completely oblivious he was wearing just a pair of socks.
