    Similar thread long ago, there was a word Somewhere in northern Europe that meant something like “aimlessly hitting your penis on things”. .

      In British English it’s called “Dicking things” (Sarah Millican has a comedy video about it IIRC?) :P

        Sounds like it yeah! I’m a big fan of the concept.

        Apparently its from Netherlands?

          It at the very least got popular in the Netherlands. This was due to a youtube upload from 2008 of a Dutch student who was proud to be the first person to swaffel the Taj Mahal. This resulted in more people swinging their dicks against various monuments.

          So if you see a popular monument, remember that it is likely a Dutch person filmed themselves while wacking their dick against it and put it on youtube somewhere.
