I always enjoyed the word putz. I typically use the verb format but it amuses me that every definition is so different lol.

I didn't know you could verb this one. But being called a putz is devastating in a way. Like, you think it's a dirty word, but it's really not

Putzing around is another way to say goofing off.

It means the male reproductive organ in yiddish.

Oh really? That's hilarious, from the context I just thought it meant "fool"
