Huge white bloomers

Mike: That gal you picked up last night just left when you were in the shower.
Harvey: Thanks.

Mike: You sure can pick em. She was a big gal.

Harvey: I know, when I woke up out of my stupor I saw her underwear on the floor. I thought I left my window open and a parachute landed through the window. Never again, man.

parachute

simply the equipment of a parachutist or a paratrooper that allows one to make a safe landing after jumping off an aircraft, not a fucking way of taking in some psychoactive or psychedelic shit

Joe was high in the air, enjoying the descent on a parachute, while Roger was high on drugs, weakly supine on the floor.

parachute kids

(PAIR.uh.shoot kidz) n. Children sent to a new country to live alone or with a caregiver while their parents remain in their home country.

Craig, a high school senior, lives a fantasy most teen-agers only dream. He and his sister Zoe, 14, live in a sprawling San Marino ranch house, their one chaperon an elderly servant who speaks no English...Craig and Zoe are examples of a phenomenon so familiar in the Chinese community that there is a nickname for it: "parachute kids" — dropped off to live in the United States while their wealthy parents remain in Asia.

The parents, mostly from Taiwan, want their children in more open, less cutthroat U.S. school systems, in which the chances of getting into college are much greater.

Parents may place their children with distant relatives or paid caretakers, or simply buy a house for them and have them stay alone. Under these scenarios, the youngsters often live much as adults would, deciding when to go to sleep or attend school and whether dinner will consist of leafy greens or potato chips.

Parachute Regiment

The most elite and highly trained regiment in the British military. Recruits undergo exclusive training at Catterick, Yorkshire, before undergoing the gruelling P-Company, a week of physical endurance tests, the military equivalent of evolution; only the strong will survive. Generally full of young men too violent for civilian life, the Parachute Regiment is the generals' 'weapon of choice' when attacking heavily defended enemy positions.

"I was going to join the Parachute Regiment but...." (generally followed by a weak excuse, for example, "I suffered a heart attack on P-Company.")
