"Alter kaker" is a Yiddish term for an elderly man, often used to mean "old fart," "old fogey," or "crotchety old man". Literally, it translates to "old defecator," but it can be used both affectionately and critically to describe someone who is cranky, fussy, or out of touch. (Google AI overview)
I love it! Except for my kid(s), I would be so out of touch.
Spelling variant. Maybe the "proper" way?
I sent alter kaker to a way back girlfriend who would know. She loves the term and sent me a different spelling. FWIW.
We should see if we can get a volume purchase discount on the hat.
