hathos

Etymology

Blend of hate +‎ pathos. According to journalist Alex Heard, this word was coined in 1985 when he was searching for a word to describe the "cringe-y feeling you get when celebs go AWOL" and attended a Super Bowl party where he and another guest, then-Bob Dole press aide Scott Richardson, exchanged ideas until they came up with "hathos."[1][2] The word's first apparent use in print was in an essay by Heard, published in the The Washington Post on May 17, 1987.[3]

Noun

Enjoyment derived from hatred of a person or thing.
- 1996, Rod Dreher, "Hate it, Love it", Sun-Sentinel, 7 January 1996:
  The patron saint of hathos connoisseurs, H.L. Mencken, was a brave soul, but even a fellow as sturdy and unstinting as he might have been struck dumb in the presence of the extravagantly hathotic Kathie Lee Gifford.
