what does "get a wedgie from" mean?
I saw that phrase in the last episode of The Big Bang Theory this season, and the original sentence is "Sheldon doesn't know when he's being mean,because the part of his brain that should know is getting a wedgie from the rest of his brain."
thx.

A wedgie is a slang term for a condition where one's underpants are drawn up and wedged (crammed) between the two halves of the person's rear end (buttocks).
It can happen with normal wear, but it can also happen if someone sneaks up behind, reaches into the victim's pants and pulls up hard on his/her underwear.
The image is one of someone being made very uncomfortable in a very embarrassing way.

Teenage boys in North America like to play pranks and wedgies are common.
