Gritchka
logged the deletion of the
snickelfritz write-up of
eskimoses, saying that it was a
'made-up expletive'. Maybe so, but
the
Pennsylvania German Dictionary of
Eugene S. Stine
defines
der Schnickelfritz as 'mischievous child'.
It also defines der Schnickel as 'penis' - let the Freudian analysis begin!
