A common misconception is that the phrase comes from pub drinkers having a whistle baked into the rim or handle of their mugs, and that people blew on this whistle to get service from the barman. Unfortunately, as convenient as it sounds, this isn't the case.
The word "whistle" has been used to describe the throat or mouth for hundreds of years, with the complete phrase appearing in literature at least as far back as the late 14th century.
So, to "wet your whistle" means nothing more than to wet your mouth or throat with a drink.
Just remember: whistling at the barman for a refill is an easy way to get thrown out of a pub.
Because if you wet your finger and put it in someones ear you get a Wet Willie
The term "wet willie" originates from a prank where a person moistens their finger with saliva and then places it in someone else's ear. The term likely gained popularity in the 20th century, with its playful and somewhat juvenile connotation reflecting a sense of harmless mischief. The act itself is often viewed as a lighthearted joke among friends rather than a serious offense. The exact origin of the phrase is unclear, but it has been a part of colloquial slang for several decades.
