Perhaps the hate speech code banned it at Yale, which prevented you from ever hearing it.

str8 went to Yale? I thought he was Canadian.

SIT DOWN AND STOP ALL THE WHINING. DELETE ALL THE FUCKING POSTS AND START OVER.

It's far easier than having to read through all this shit written by all you sitzpinklers.

This lapsed Methodist from Pennsylvania who once woo'd a rabbi's daughter has never heard of it either.

>>Apparently, the Germans have a word for men who can't stand up for themselves, both literally and figuratively. It's 'sitzpinkler', which means both one who sits when urinating and wimp.

Similar terms: Faggot (the correct usage), wuss, pussy, drip, pantywaist, dweeb and beotch.

I spoke with a midwestern Jew who also had never heard it.

I'm not a Jew and I'm not in New York, but I was a camp counselor once at a Jewish day camp (also not in New York, FWIW), and I had never heard of it. I assumed it was something WASPs say to make fun of people wearing mock turtlenecks.

Hm. I am a sitzpinkler. Oddly, since "pinkle" sounds like "tinkle" and "sitz bath" is a bath sitting down (and "sitz" sounds like "sits"), I kinda thought that was what it meant.

Somehow, the insults that boil down to "you are a female!" don't do much for me.

I thought that and then realized I was thinking of dickies like that guy in "Weird Science" (or whichever one had val kilmer and all the popcorn at the end) wore.

Not Zapped! with Scott Baio, but of that idiom.

To this day, "Real Genius" does not get the respect it deserves.

It turns out the bear was a bit of a beer sophisticate. He tried a mass-market Busch beer, but switched to Rainier Beer, a local ale, and stuck with it for his drinking binge.

FWIW, Rainier is not a microbrew. Any college or high schooler can tell you that. It's cheap and is easy to get. And apparently bears prefer it over that Miller crap.
