Squeaky bum
Heard in Waterford
A term describing a severe state of nervousness/anxiety. A profuse amount of sweating in the posterior region causes less than normal friction between ones glutes causing them to slip past one another thus emitting a high pitched squeaking sound, hence squeaky bum. Often the phrase 'Squeaky Bum Time' is used to describe a general state of anxiety before an event/game.
Jaynee mack it was squeaky bum time for a while before asking yer wan to dance last night... what if she said no, I just don't think I could take that sort of rejection.
By Jove, it was a terribly nerve-wracking ordeal before I summoned the courage to invite that young lady to dance last night. What if she declined, for I simply could not endure such rejection.
