yes, that's all you have to do, til the next time it come up. Just
before movies start the thing is up and down like a prostitute's
knickers.

I do wish people wouldn't keep updating bastions of the English language
in the hope they'll be regarded as trendy and cool.

It's "whore's drawers" man! "Prostitute's knickers" doesn't even rhyme.

Um, not use it as I have never in my whole life heard it :O)

I actually was a bit silly with the prossies knickers thing because I
have a habit of trying to put things in a way that americans will get
and in this case forgot I was in a UK group, so no need. Mind you,
some americans prefer the real thing, gives them a laugh... sayings
that is, not whore's drawers... although, hey, I'm not their mother, I
don't know what they get up to on a Monday night.
