A "Penny Drop" is a term used by the belligerent people of the middle class society. This word is used to define a situation that arises when a supremely STD infested ex-girlfriend proudly proclaims that she has transpired to receive an std directly from you in public for all to hear.

<colloquial expression>

If the "penny has dropped" it means someone has finally realised the situation they are in after possibly being unaware of it for a long time, depending on the situation.

==> The phrase dates back to the Victorian Era and the popular penny-slot arcades. The penny would often stick halfway down the slot and the user would then have to either wait, or give the machine a thump before the 'penny finally dropped' and they could begin playing.
