February 9th, 2022
When I was a kid, my parents and other adults used the phrase “on the fritz” to describe something mechanical that wasn’t working.
“the refrigerator isn’t keeping things cold – it must be on the fritz”
and
“I can’t get the vacuum to run, it’s on the fritz”.
Are you familiar with the expression?
If you were name Fritz, would you be insulted?
