bollocks
v : make a mess of, destroy or ruin; "I botched the dinner and we had to eat out"; "the pianist screwed up the difficult passage in the second movement" [syn: botch, bumble, fumble, botch up, muff, blow, flub, screw up, ball up, spoil, muck up, bungle, fluff, bollix, bollix up, bollocks up, bobble, mishandle, louse up, foul up, mess up, **** up]
"ballocks" is also UK slang equivalent to "balls" in the US... referring to testicles. It would roughly translate to "Don't get yoru panties in a bunch"...
Or, to keep it simple, telling someone to calm down, & not get so worked up about something.

It's a British expression, meaning 'don't get all upset' often it's 'don't get your knickers or panties in a twist'
Meaning, they didn't do anything really wrong, so don't go flying off the handle.

It means don't have a hissy fit. Don't get your pants in a bunch. Don't get your dandruff up. Don't get all worked up about it Maybe they meant buttocks
