In any relationship, wedgies are a sign of commitment! Scientists have published reams of clinical investigations and case reports that support this fact. Please evaluate the health of your own relationship by voting in this poll. Thank you, si man.

Reams of clinical investigations and case reports? :lol:

For the non-wedgie informed:

A wedgie occurs when a person's underwear or other garments are wedged between the buttocks. While a wedgie can be created naturally, the term is usually associated with a prank or as a form of bullying. When a person is on the receiving end of a wedgie, their underwear is forcibly pulled up by a second person.

Wedgies are commonly featured in popular works, either as a form of low comedy or as a behavior representative of bullying. In such works, briefs are usually the type of underpants that a wedgie is performed upon.

I had a friend who did some investigation to try to determine the term for a wedgie in Russian. After asking many Russians and occasionally explaining things and getting a lot of blank stares, the conclusion has been that in Russian, not only is there no term for wedgie, the concept does not exist in the culture. However, in spite of your "research," Russian women have excellent relationship skills.
