What power companies hafta endure every time there's a widespread/extended blackout for no apparent reason.
Now dat da electricity infrastructure has been improved over how it had been in da '60's and '70's, there are fewer outages during inclement weather, and so da power companies don't receive so much gridicule as they used to.

Making a predicktion about future sexual pleasures is all well and good, but it can also warn if da "generous with his sausage" dude in question is gonna be a real you-know-what in his attitude and overall treatment of you.

A PG-rated "supplementary" essay to the classic fairly tale, this missive advises pre-teen and early-teen girls about why some of the boys in her neighborhood or school are suddenly expressing interest in her, even though previously they may have either mostly ignored her or treated her like she was ugly, fat, geeky/awkward, bothersome, etc.
If the "Beauty and the Breast" pamphlet had been around in Laura Ingalls' time, the prematurely-buxom Sylvia might have not been so upset and scared when neighborhood boys started pestering and harassing her.

As much bodily shocks dat squirrels subject themselves to when scurrying and jumping about in trees 24/7, it's a wonder they don't all come down with major cases of achecorns.

In other words, it may not exactly be a "stroll on Easy Street" for you no matter what da result of da paternity-test shows --- a prime example would be dat even if said test does indeed prove dat you're not da love-baby's daddy, da test's in-da-thousands-of-dollars cost may be somewhat comparable to what you'd have hadda spend for child-support, anyway.
Good luck on getting a refund for da momentous cost of a paternity-test if said test proves dat indeed you are not da child's biological father (see "pap smear", definition #14); you might be better off to simply start making support-payments; it can definitely be a "DNAmned if you do and DNAmned if you don't" situation!

Humorous term for someone's suddenly acquiring such a vast quantity of one or more desirable items that he feels like he's standing in the one single empty space in that child's "fifteen puzzle" sliding-tiles game, where you can only move one numbered block at a time... in other words, he's totally surrounded by enormous heaps of goodies, but he has absolutely zero “wiggle room” --- i.e., empty space in any direction --- to actually work with or process said newfound bounty. It'd be like if he’d meekly “asked around” to see if anyone had any scrap lumber, and then multitudes of people hastily converged on his property and generously heaped his entire yard so full of boards, beams, and plywood that he couldn't even walk out of his front door, or if a local home/business-owner who was “downsizing” had offered him an entire shed full of either huge bulging bags of returnables or pallets shrink-wrap-stacked to the ceiling with some of his favorite canned good or household items, but the building was so tightly crammed that there was only barely room to open the door a couple feet, thus preventing him from actually entering the shed and sorting through said windfall; in both cases he would be obliged to timidly "pick at the edges" of the mountain, tediously removing the items literally one-by-one.
Two classic examples of someone’s feeling “too rich to move” would be:
(1) if someone presented him with a huge 3-ring binder that was opened out flat, and the “presenter” had unthinkingly loaded BOTH “halves” of said binder with sheets “right up to the tops of the rings”, so that now the book’s unfortunate recipient could not actually turn any of the pages or even close the cover; he would therefore be obliged to procure another similar-sized binder and then carefully transfer half of the “overflowing” tome’s pages over into this second empty binder, so he could then peruse the work’s text a page at a time, or
(2) someone unfamiliar with how magnetic-tape players or film-projectors function had naively spliced two completely-filled reels of tape/film together, spindled the humongous spools onto a portable tape-deck or projector, and then proudly presented said “loaded-up ‘n’ ready” unit to another person, never realizing that said speechlessly-unnerved recipient would not be able to play said material "as-is", since there would literally be “nowhere for the strip of media to go” once it started rolling.
