schmaltz is the type of early to mid fifties pop music that was displaced by rock and roll. lots of harmonies and big band type horn arrangements. if you listen to the background of the movie âback to the futureâ the type of music on the radio when marty first gets back to 1955 is pretty schmaltzy. also, if you watched WKRP in Cincinnati, they switched from schmaltz to rock in the first episode. synonyms are âeasy listeningâ and âmusic of your lifeâ though it would be a grandparentâs life to modern kids.
And originally shmaltz is a cheap butter substitute, made by covering the skin and fat from a chicken, along with apple and onion slices, with water, then simmering until the water has boiled away. Strain and cool.
I have never found âfittingâ a thing to be desired. Those who want to fit, and donât, are left out and usually hurt in the process and those who do fit are self exiled into their own little clique and walled away from the rest of the world. Why would anyone want to âfitâ when there is a whole big world out there and so little time to see and do it all?
edcole: you were just about on the money from yesterday - she DOES have the Styx T-shirt on, but she isnât complaining about her name. Maybe thatâs tomorrow?

Smaltzy? With a penguin and a groundhog to cuddle, Yaz has got it made! And if sheâs happy, weâre all happy!

How can anyone feel left out with friends like them?

Head = acidhead; hence, by extension, the hippie/druggie group in her high school.
Jrbj: That is probably the only statement of yours with which I shall ever agree.

Maybe she just needs to wash her hair more often.

schmaltz also schmalz (shmÀlts) n.
(Informal) a. Excessively sentimental art or music. b. Maudlin sentimentality. Liquid fat, especially chicken fat.4deer: When I was in school it was mainly from âpotheadâ, but basically applies generally to druggies, as you said.

And all this time I thought schmaltz was the head on a beer, airy with no substance.

Bloomfan, I think youâre right, it is pot- rather than acid-.
