I called da local post office and opted out of receiving weekly sales flyers (I almost never buy anything from them, anyway, and I wanted to save on pulp-trees), but I keep getting them anyway; turns out that the USPS always just drops off those ads at every box; they aren't even allowed to "pick and choose" where they deliver those bundles of nonsense.

Refers to da "3-to-1" ratio of where ya either sue da audio-equipment manufacturer for just da expenses dat you incurred due to their shoddy/faulty workmanship on their woofers dat were installed in your loudspeakers, as opposed to asking them to pay you three times your expenses if da tweeters either didn't work properly or had crappy sound.
Pro-grade speaker-builders like JBL and EV are always very careful how they build their rugged high-powered speakers designed for rock bands and outdoor concerts --- they use only da best materials and really "build 'em like a tank" to ensure reliability and quality sound, and therefore lessen da chance of their having to worry about "bass damages vs. treble damages" lawsuits from disgruntled musicians.

Get the bass damages vs. treble damagesmug. Where someone compulsively saves money by buying super-cheap-priced foods like crackers and white bread, not caring/realizing that these salty/sugary/"empty-carbs" foods will make him gain unhealthy weight in a hurry. Ben Franklin was always sagely expounding about stuff like this, and just look at da deplorable "tubby" shape HE was in!
That balloon-bodied dude with clogged arteries in the ER never eats health-food stuff "'cuz it costs too much" --- talk about "penny-wise and pound-foolish" --- what good is being a penny-pincher and "fattening" your bank account if you're also gradually fattening YOURSELF in the process???

Get the penny-wise and pound-foolishmug. Refers to a non-startling strategy employed whenever you are unable to unobtrusively get someone's attention or make eye-contact with him for whatever reason (maybe he's deep in a book, concentrating hard on a household/carpentry task, or using noisy equipment, and thus he does not look up/around occasionally or hear/observe your presence) and so you start out to say hello by speaking very quietly, and then cautiously raising your voice little-by-little (like some modern-day alarm-clocks do so as to wake you "gently" instead of startling you out of a sound slumber with a full-blast ringer right away) till the previously-oblivious person eventually becomes aware of your proximity and glances up.
I'd wanted to ask my elderly neighbor about my possibly carpooling with him on his grocery-shopping trip the next day, but he was so busy using his riding lawnmower that he never noticed me despite my circling around in front of him several times, so I eventually used the gradual-ramp-up-volume greeting to finally get his attention.

Get the gradual-ramp-up-volume greetingmug. What one or both members of da unfortunate couple at a shotgun wedding would likely wish could be granted regarding da terms of da marriage agreement.
I never could understand da rationale behind a loose-with-his-zipper dude's being forced to marry da gal whom he'd gotten preggo but was otherwise unwilling to stand by --- presumably da girl's parents would not even want a "deadbeat dad" like him as a reputation-sullying member of their formerly-respectable family, anyway. Maybe "'way back when" during da time when shotgun weddings were more common, there were not da legal "ALTERation" possibilities yet dat would merely require da dude to pay child-support, not actually live in da same household as da new mother.

Advice for all of you tongue-lolling studs out there who continually crave to partake of misty-eyed chest-pillow-kneading --- if you are always super-gentle when playing wif "da GIRLS" anytime a well-endowed GIRL permits you access to said precious soft warm "twins", she'll be more likely to allow you more of said delightful interacktion wif her in da future.
