Dat grim leather-jacketed dude wif da sunglasses who possesses dogged perseverance and dedication in his endeavors to bump off people.
Achmed the Dead Terrorist has quite a self-proclaimed "determinator" status himself, yet he never seems to be able to actually follow through on his "keeling".

A fumingly-sarcastic reference to a shamelessly "sneaky 'n' unethical" (and unfortunately very common!) "buy-pressure" strategy practiced at many hardware/specialty-supplies stores; the ploy consists of a staffperson's hacking off a length from a roll of bulk-product like rope, wire, hose, or cloth, and only **afterwards** informing the customer how much the product is priced per foot, hoping that said customer will then feel obligated to buy the piece "since it's already been cut off the roll".
I once had a totally pathetic "cost-cutting maneuver" tried on me at a bicycle-repair shop --- I needed a rear shift-cable, and so the clerk cut off my required length of cable from the store's bulk roll, without first telling me the super-steep per-foot price or asking me beforehand if I wanted to pay that much. It was only when he actually brought the "ringing up the sale" screen up on the computer that he revealed the astronomical amount that it was gonna cost me --- a whopping SEVEN DOLLARS AND CHANGE! --- for just three or four feet of the cable! Fortunately, I had the "bravery" to just look mildly shocked and hastily remark, "Eeeyewww... that's a lot more than I can afford --- thank you anyway, though. I'll just get one at WalMart instead." Hey, it wasn't MY fault if the salesman had created a harder-to-resell cut piece of cable --- I hadn't asked him to chop me off some of the cable yet, I'd just told him that I needed a replacement shifter-cable, so it wasn't my "responsibility" to now PAY for said cable! He should have told me beforehand how much it would cost per foot, and then asked me if I wanted to buy it before he'd actually hacked the length off the roll!

What da ladies of Louisiana's state capital are doin' to get gussied up whenever there's a gala festival scheduled.
Prior to every big bash, jewelers in La-la State's "Red Stick City" are also "battin' rouge" --- i.e., speedily dabbin da finely-abrasive polish on their prized merchandise --- in preparation to party-goers' flocking into their shops to buy super-shiny baubles to wear when getting all decked out for said wildly-whoopin'-it-up event.

A paper document-slipcover dat contains a large check, passport, or other important item dat permits you to clandestinely run off wif yer sweetheart and get married.
In da 1924 Harold Lloyd movie "Girl Shy", da publisher's $3000 advance-royalty check arrived in an envELOPE for da currently-of-merely-da-working-class Harold; he realized dat da money would allow him to marry his rich-girl heart-throb, even if her parents would have reservations about a union of such unequal social status.

Top-priority government activity regarding our fins-and-scales friends in da oceans, rivers, and lakes.
In da poem dat Humpty Dumpty recites to Alice, he relates how he sent a special "offishial business" message to da tuna and halibut in which he requested their assistance; however, said swimming-species were not overly impressed or inclined to grant da bombastic egg-head's self-centered wishes.

Ah, words --- always confusing us with their oddly-opposite-sounding constructions. Take "chagrin", for example --- it means humiliated disappointment, from which you would hardly feel like "grinning". So what would "chafrown" mean, then?

What every eager tongue-lolling stud in town wants to give a cute chick wif an equally-cute posterior, so dat they'll have an excuse to touch, stroke, pat, squeeze, massage, spank, etc. said "delightful derriere".
Amused cutie: I never need help sitting down, brushing dust/snow off my behind, soothing my butt after sitting on hard/uneven surfaces, etc., but I still always agreeably allow my male friends to administer said "ass-sistance" to me, since I know dat they love pleasuring their thirsting hands on my warm pillowy booty.
