I like your ranting and snarking, Tim. It's fine. We all have these kind of days!
Just a little note on the German word you chose for the title of this piece. While your description of the word's literal meaning is absolutely correct, it's mostly used as a derogatory term by conservative machos to make very clear they're definitely not one of those 'feminine' guys... In their world, it's probably close to being 'stinky left/green-voting' ('linksgrün versifft'). I have rarely heard anyone use it in a different, positive framing, like you did here – but then again, agree, let's just own this. Yes, I am a Sitzpinkler too.
Ha, yes! I kind of got that it means 'wimp' or 'unmanly' in some way, which made it all the more tempting as a title ;-) I might even add an exclamation mark. Always up for reclaiming language from macho conservatives. x
We all need to rant from time to time! And let me tell you, smoking isn't cool and it's bad for you and your voice! Sorry to sound like a mother, I just hate the smoke!

My word. I love this so much. Spraying a rainbow arc of likes like a wee sprinkler.
You complete me, with your wet play metaphors.
