??????????:S?????????
i really don't get this???
Something, y dont u explain this to us? cuz it makes no sence
i figured the answer would have been sexual, like opened legs or something, because electicusion does give a sudden sensation, like... does, but um..... i agree with everyone else on this, "???rebus???"
violent... ....not really a rebus either
what? that made no sense! can u please explain that something?
It is a common phrase.
The knee is jerking away. I suppose the mistake I made was using electrocution as the "test"... all that was done for was to make it a "reaction" instead of just an occurance.
Basically, the only thing you need to look at to solve the teaser is the last line before the question.. "Knee - thrust quickly away", or whatever it says exactly. That's basically just saying that the reaction that the knee gives is to jerk away... hence "knee-jerk reaction".

Tooo easy! The question at the top gave it away.
Too much info I think. The question was what was the knee's reaction and the answer was 'knee jerk reaction' which kind of makes it a 'knee jerk reaction reaction'. The wording kind of steers you away from the term reaction because it's given.
