Where, where? "Hear, hear" is an expression used as a short repeated form of "hear ye and hear him". It represents a listener's agreement with the point being made by a speaker. See also: Me too +1 This has been a Public Service Announcement
I always thought it was "hear hear" as a redundent shout out like a newspaper vendor might use. I recently saw a learned poster post "hear here" as in "hear it here". Which is it? Dunno. More importantly, "panty waist". Is that it? I think "panty waste" would be a much better insult. I can visualize "panty waste" (ick!) , but panty waist? Not quite sure on that.
omg,learned something,always thought 'panty waste' was the equivalent to a 'dingle berry' now I know better thanks/cheers, RE
