Okay, I'm almost afraid to ask...what is a melvin?
I haven't really had many embarrassing public moments...I try to avoid those at all costs I think the worst was peeing my pants in class in 3rd grade...It must have been pretty bad though because I still vividly remember it...
What was your best high school memory? (Besides graduation!)
Answer: Melvin aka Wedgie
Wedgie
Wedgie, is the slang term for when underwear bunches up and becomes wedged betwixt the buttocks, or for a
prank involving pulling up a victim's undershorts to artificially induce this condition, causing anal pain.
Supposedly, an
Atomic Wedgie is the prank form in which the waist band of the underwear is pulled above the head, but this is impossible, and the term is used merely as a joke, or to describe a "really bad" wedgie. Used, among others, in the
Dilbert comic.
Basic Slang Terms for Forms of Wedgie
Regular Wedgie
As described above, a regular wedgie is the condition of having one's underwear wedged thoroughly between one’s buttocks.
Frontal Wedgie
Sometimes refered to as a Melvin
The frontal wedgie is the condition of having the 'giver' of the wedgie approach the victim from the front. They would then reach forward and grab the material at the front of the victim's underwear and pull up, either squashing the testicles or wedging the material into the vagina.
Lesser Known Forms of Wedgie
Atomic Wedgie
An atomic wedgie – as explained above – is perhaps almost mythical. The victim will experience their underwear being pulled up over their head, and secured on their forehead.
Hanging Wedgie
A hanging wedgie is performed by executing some form of basic type of wedgie, and then lifting the victim off the ground, and hanging either the tip of the underwear onto some form of elevated hook device, or jamming a elevated stationary pole of some sort through the underwear leg holes. For this particular wedgie to be authentic, the victim’s legs must not be able to reach the ground.
Thwedgie
A 'thwedgie' is supposedly a regular form of wedgie, apart from the victim must be wearing thong underwear.
Propeller Wedgie A propeller wedgie is induced by giving the victim a regular wedgie, then jamming some form of pole between the legholes, then somehow twisting the form around, tightening the material and wedging the material in the victim's buttocks.
