Beavers aren't da only ones who can become gnawseated, people can also eventually feel kinda queasy from watching beavers working for too long.

What one or both members of da unfortunate couple at a shotgun wedding would likely wish could be granted regarding da terms of da marriage agreement.
I never could understand da rationale behind a loose-with-his-zipper dude's being forced to marry da gal whom he'd gotten preggo but was otherwise unwilling to stand by --- presumably da girl's parents would not even want a "deadbeat dad" like him as a reputation-sullying member of their formerly-respectable family, anyway. Maybe "'way back when" during da time when shotgun weddings were more common, there were not da legal "ALTERation" possibilities yet dat would merely require da dude to pay child-support, not actually live in da same household as da new mother.

Refers to a non-startling strategy employed whenever you are unable to unobtrusively get someone's attention or make eye-contact with him for whatever reason (maybe he's deep in a book, concentrating hard on a household/carpentry task, or using noisy equipment, and thus he does not look up/around occasionally or hear/observe your presence) and so you start out to say hello by speaking very quietly, and then cautiously raising your voice little-by-little (like some modern-day alarm-clocks do so as to wake you "gently" instead of startling you out of a sound slumber with a full-blast ringer right away) till the previously-oblivious person eventually becomes aware of your proximity and glances up.
I'd wanted to ask my elderly neighbor about my possibly carpooling with him on his grocery-shopping trip the next day, but he was so busy using his riding lawnmower that he never noticed me despite my circling around in front of him several times, so I eventually used the gradual-ramp-up-volume greeting to finally get his attention.

Legalized harassment by mail.
I called da local post office and opted out of receiving weekly sales flyers (I almost never buy anything from them, anyway, and I wanted to save on pulp-trees), but I keep getting them anyway; turns out that the USPS always just drops off those ads at every box; they aren't even allowed to "pick and choose" where they deliver those bundles of nonsense.

Where one or more loud animal vocalizations, natural phenomenons, or revving-engine sounds came from.
I went for a jungle-hike looking for some gigantic machine dat was making a huge racket, but then I discovered dat da roarigin of said deafening throaty noises was just a pack of gorillas during breeding season.

Describes da virtually-free-of-charge status of a dog's companionship, protection, etc.; i.e., da only thing dat he asks in return is a meaty bovine femur or tibia each day for him to chew on.
In da animation-comedy "Achmed Saves America", da Wilson family's dog Bill gives freely of his affection; Achmed discovers dat said eager-to-please pooch rushes to his side "pro-boneo", as well --- i.e., Achmed merely has to temporarily remove one of his skeletal members and offer it to Bill, and said cluelessly-amiable pooch will always immediately come running.

Nightmarish visions dat Charlie Brown, Schroeder, and Linus experience regarding da tempestuous pint-sized brunette in their neighborhood.
Having da neighborhood bullyess behave anti-socially towards you and always yank da football away when you're running up to kick it is enough to give anybody hallucynations!
