schnickelfritzs

The term, "schnickelfritz," used to be a commonly used term, in place of the word "thing." it is derived from two ancient words of the ancient Babylonian and Mesopotamian languages; schnickel and fritz. A schnickel is a popular ghetto term for a monetary unit of exchange used in the United States, the nickel, worth 5 cents. A fritz is a popular, but not so popular term for a broken down German soldier. It was a piece of American military slang during the times of WWII. "Schnickelfritz" is now an unpopular term used by the almost-but-not-so-cool teenagers of s-dub. It won in a popularity contest against the word offie, and then lost in the meaningless banter in the WB network's Gilmore Girls, and is now used as a light insult to random, unsuspecting people who think it sounds schway.

"Did that nice guy with a cute dog just break up with you last night?"

"Yeah, he's a schnickelfritz."
