What you hafta do if da finned creature you hook is so big dat you cannot simply reel it in normally, and so you are obliged to "get physical" in subduing it once you land it onto the shore.
Catching a tuna or marlin may involve a major fishing tackle, but if you snag a large flying fish, you may hafta resort to a "flying tackle" to get it into your larder.

A pre- or early "terrible twos" human whose existence and/or presence involved alcoholic beverages somewhere along da way.
If a young child is described as a "toddyler", it can mean one or more of several things, such as dat one or both parents had been judgement-cloudingly buzzed at da time of conception, da couple had not been entirely sober when they'd signed da adoption papers, etc.

Pens/pencils/erasers, notebooks, rulers, compasses, etc --- writing/drawing accessories that heartless grownups make poor little kiddies miserably sit in one place and use instead of letting them go outside to play.
What a farce --- all these self-righteous adults whining about modern-day children's preferring to watch TV and use their computers/cell-phones instead of doing outdoor activities, and yet when those very same youngsters **specifically ask to go outside**, those same snooty grownups heartlessly shake their heads and say, "No, you hafta stay here and finish your lessons!" Plus they balk at buying the youngsters nice outdoor-0activities equipment like skateboards or basketball-hoops, yet they always seem to manage the cash for stationary products to use in their boring schoolwork! It's just a big conspiracy to keep children "quiet and manageable"!

Before you accept a seemingly-too-good-to-be-true offer/deal, you should carefully inquire as to whether there are any purse-strings attached to said proposal.

I was told by da customer-service rep at my computer's manufacturer dat there would be a "nominal rate of $1.99 per minute" for tech-support, but I knew dat said service-call would likely take a good forty-five minutes, and so I decided to just wait till morning and ask my computer-geek buddy to take a look at it instead... no need to pay a phenominal fee of 90-plus bucks!

A peace-and-goodwill-seeking diplomat who hails from da lovely island where Thomas and his railroad-buddies reside.
Since da famous fictional island is primarily railroad-themed, I wonder if an ambassodor from there would be expected to "toot his own horn"?

Da assordid --- I mean, I mean, **assorted** --- stories of "getting lucky" dat two or more studs exchange around da card-table or at da bar-counter.
I detest listening to da miscellaneous "tail tales" of da various puffed-ego human stallions who gather at Duffy's Tavern... I mean, yeah, sure --- so maybe those hot chicks **did indeed** spread their legs for those virile crotch-cravers on those particular occasions, but what about any word of actual long-term friendships or relationships with said ladies??? Didn't those guys have any more respect or appreciation for these "willing" women beyond just their allowing said bush-hungry dudes to get in their pants??? I would rather take da time and effort to cause a gal to like and respect me as being a nice kind-hearted guy whom she'd actually **enjoy** lovingly cuddling up to and having sex wif, not just perform da simple ol' "wham, bam, thank you, Ma'am" routine wif her and then scuttle off again!
