against the rules

When I was a teenager, “whipping shitties” was what we called spinning donuts in the parking lots with a car.
Although you’re correct, it could be attributed to the same shenanigans on a frozen lake.
I remember one intersection near my high school that always got extremely icy every winter… Some buddies of mine with drivers licenses loved to “whip a shitty” through that intersection. Basically, crank their wheel hard as they’re driving through the intersection and spin in a few circles while sliding through the intersection. I dunno how we never crashed a car doing that.
Awesome, thanks for the additional context.

Okay, that’s a maneuver deserving this moniker. It probably looks as hilarious as the name itself. To say nothing of being a passenger in a car that’s doing it.

Because I had such a heavy course load in college, I would offer to designated drive for my friends in college on Friday nights. During the winter, when they were all plastered, I would offer to take them out for donuts. Then I’d just pull into a Kmart parking lot and spin donuts. Very proud of my dumb joke I’d pull.
That sounds really funny until you suddenly need to clean your car

I kinda want to live amongst a people who call it “whipping shitties”, but then I’m colorblind, so who knows where the fuck that is. But on the other hand, I was able to adjust the contrast on my screen, so that kinda bypasses my fucked up colorblind genetics enough that I can see where the whipping shitties people live, and that honestly changed my mind on the whole ideal of living amongst them.

Sorry, there are folks calling it “doing cookies” and people here are concerned with “whippin’ shitties”?

Whipping shitties -> my lexicon
Now you might only be able to get a couple rotations until the ice has had at least one night at twenty below. That’ll set it up real nice. After that you should be able to properly whip a shitty worth telling your kids about some day.
Is it even worth trying before that point in the season? You betcha!

Maybe if you’re the guy with a zamboni.

You get bonus points if you do it while going around a corner.

Whipping a shitty sounds like something that might spray liquid on onlookers

I’m Canadian and come from “doing donuts” territory, but we will use “whipping shitties” if it’s done in a massive parking lot.

Whipping shitties -> my lexicon
Being from one of the green areas, I’ve definitely heard it before, but rarely as the primary way of saying it. When I hear it, it’s usually added for comedic effect along the lines of “I was doing donuts yesterday. Ya know, just whipping shitties.”

Mostly northern Minnesota. Here’s an example of the sorts of conversations you’ll have (starting at about the 16 minute mark).

So you’re saying that it had another name when you did it without a car?
