The New Emotions

Apparently Science has determined that there are six basic human emotions: joy, sadness, anger, fear, surprise and disgust. The New Statesman has determined that those are not enough, and has proposed five additional FEELINGS that could also join the pantheon: elevation, interest, gratitude, pride, and confusion. To that list I would add the following: self-loathing, ennui, recklessness, unavailability, and badly in need of a drink. Your list may vary slightly.
