uh...no. However, YOU are now appointed as our best hope for a legitimate fiver, I don't even know what it would be called. (suggestions welcome)

If I were given this mission, I'd think of a double, then check the synonym finder for help, paying particular attention to words with both ordinary and vulgar definitions. Once I had something that sounded like it had potential , I'd submit it to a friend for input, then when ready, post it up. We don't even have a point schedule for a fiver. We do have large bonus points for a headline that has two different doubles; and one of those, if carefully assembled, could potentially qualify as a fiver. Remember, no actual vulgar slang or curse words. We have class here. BTW for all those who may have an interest, the word "moist" has its origins in Latin vulgar slang. no lie. pete

How making it a quintuple? Tailgate as in "Wag the Tail" Does that count. How many points for a 5er

Sorry, I got ahead of myself. I meant wag the tail as in "the tail wagging the dog" as in the movie "Wag the Dog". (I haven't seen the movie, but I assume from what I've heard about it that that is the meaning of the title.)
