Dangle hammocks (n.) 


Any baggy, ill fitting and/or unattractive undergarments, typically grey in colour, that one wears in the unshakeable belief that one is almost certainly unlikely to have sex that particular night, or when all other sources of clean underwear have been exhausted. 

Exemplified by the first Bridget Jones film, in which Renée Zellweger is caught wearing dangle hammocks on her first date with the foppishly handsome Hugh Grant, an event that was voted number one top movie moment in a recent Guardian poll of idiots.

Cf. ‘spangle pants’ and ‘stripfulness’.
