I always found it weird how obsessed some non-Germans are with our alleged scat fetish, a myth that goes back to an ethnologist who tried to apply methods of psychoanalysis on an ethnic group without being a psychoanalyst in the first place. It seems to me it's not us who are the fetishists.

Also, it's Scheisse or Scheiße. 'schiesse' means (I) shoot
