- hodgesrm 8y agoThis is the only meaning of Sitzfleisch I have ever encountered. It's not a compliment at least in our house.
- btschaegg 8y agoInteresting. I think I only ever heard the term in context with politicians that that were elected "too many times" by someone's standard. There, it certainly isn't meant positively -- the funny thing is that this goes rather well with the phrase mentioning Angela Merkel at the beginning of the article. There are more and more voices now that would prefer someone new taking her post.
