[Ads-l] "Don't hate. Appreciate!"

[Jonathan Lighter]

Chris Cuomo, humorously, on CNN.

Before you start feeling good about Hitler and Stalin, understand that
"hate" means "be envious, critical, or resentful of another's success" in
young-folk lingo - as it has for a fair number of years (often construed
with "on").
