Noah was supposedly the one who built the famous huge flood-resistant vessel, but according to the hilariously-naive Gracie Allen, Joan of Arc was the real arkitect: "Oh, c'mon, George --- us women have always been the true pioneers in the world! WE did all of the greatest achievements, not you men! Why, did Joan of Arc hesitate? No! She got busy and built it!"
George Burns: "Built what?"
Gracie Allen: "The Ark!"
George Burns: "Gracie, the Ark was built by a **man**, remember? Noah?"
Gracie Allen: "How could I 'noah'? Shes been deceased for 500 years!"

A "perfect world" as defined just by yourself, regardless of how other world-inhabiting organisms (i.e., people, animals, plants, etc) might happen to feel about it. A classic example would be what Lucy van Pelt was trying to create by handing out lists of faults to all of her friends --- "I want to make the world a better place for me to live in."
Ethan Couch's absurdly-doting-and-overindulgent father wanted to create a virtual "metopia" learning-environment for his "little prince", and so he actually offered to buy the entire school so that he could control how it was run and therefore dictate how "Little Man" was being treated.

Gradually accustomed/adapted to personalities/conditions regarding someone with the last name of "Ackley".
The term "Ackleymated" can also be used "in reverse" --- i.e., to mean someone named Ackley's becoming used to a difficult set of circumstances. A prime example would be when the great Carl A. --- the "father of modern taxidermy" --- had to take a while to be able to withstand the awful stench of rotting flesh when he "stuffed 'n' mounted" the famous Jumbo's carcass after said giant pachyderm was accidentally struck and killed by a train.
