[Humour] Don’t Be Such A Big Girl’s Blouse!

[el punal]

This and other expressions relating to items of clothing to describe any given situation are in abundance in our everyday conversations. So, dear friends, an opportunity for your contribution, remember though - don’t get your knickers in a twist over it, just pull your socks up, roll up your sleeves and put the boot in.

Taxi’s here, I’ll get my coat and my cap, if it fits.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

When you need courage, put your big boys pants on, and face it.

4th reply before boring **** says look at me, look at me.

 

[*Gullsworth*]

Get ahead get a hat.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Put your knickers on and go and make me a cup of tea.

It is an expression I use worryingly often, when I get exasperated with someone, and have probably used variants in posts on NSC. I stole it from here.
