"Don’t get your panties in a wad" nghĩa là gì?

"Don’t get your panties in a wad" có panty là quần lót, wad là cuộn -> cụm từ này nghĩa là đừng quá đau buồn, lo lắng hay kích động (nhất là vì những chuyện vặt vãnh, không đâu).

Ví dụ

Sarah Palin has some advice for Mitt Romney surrogate Chris Christie: Don't get your “panties in a wad” and say things you'll regret later.

Her caption saying it was her quote "N-69 mask" and telling those upset, "Don't get your panties in a wad." "I think it was an absolute slap in the face to everyone who has to wear a mask on a daily basis," Taylor said.

Now the flip side of that coin is you can’t be a fully absentee (người vắng mặt) parent at the park. It’s not ok to bring your hyped-up kid to the park and then fully checkout on your cell phone. If your kid is being a jerk, you need to step up or don’t get your panties in a wad when another parent does. It goes both ways.
