local ordnance

A bu**s**t crazy-a** rule dat a municipality thoughtlessly imposes on its citizens and anyone else who visits said locale, and fanatically enforces said directives with heavy weaponry.

Two comically-absurd examples of a local ordnance are the obviously-copycats-of-each-other animated shorts "Pink Panzer" and "Suppressed Duck" --- in both films, absurdly-large/heavy firepower is employed merely to maintain/enforce a boundary-line.

paintstaking work

Extremely careful precise work wif da tempera and water-colors.

I did some really paintstaking work on da community-mural, and felt totally drained afterwards. But then everyone was super-pleased and praisingly impressed wif da final result, so I felt it was all worth da extra effort.

vacational rehabilitation

A recovery program for assisting people in returning to work after a relaxing vacation, which has caused them to become so accustomed to an easy/pleasant lifestyle that they have literally forgotten how to perform labor.

Tronald Dump has never done a lick of real work in his life, so I seriously doubt that vacational rehabilitation would work very well for him in learning to be a proper president, since he has never known how to do anything honest/useful to begin with.

angler-management issues

Describes what a short-fused game-warden possesses when dealing with fishermen.

As an employee of da Department of Natural Resources, da perpetually-hotheaded Bob Stuyvesant would likely have major "angler-management issues", both in his manner while fumingly waiting for said stream-bases sportsmen to hunt through their backpacks to locate their paperwork, and bawlingly lamenting about "da one dat got away" --- i.e., da occasional rod-and-reel wielder who managed to slither off before da overzealous-and-obsessively-by-da-book Bob could have a chance to check his catch or ask to see his license.
