I had a hard time navigating by my boat's binnacle --- its needle-card just kept spinning around in circles, and thus showing all kinds of random "east-northwest by south" readings --- till I realized it was being affected by the magnetized eyelets in the cloth cap I was wearing! Duhhhhh..... :P

Refers to where someone noisily pretends to regret an action --- such as turning off a light, splashing water, etc. --- which caused someone else momentary shock and/or outrage, when in reality said prankster was completely intentional in performing said minor atrocity, and has gotten a huge giggle out of the hilarious-to-him distressed reaction of his "victim"!
Dude #1: flips the ceiling-light off in an otherwise-darkened garage where he is fully aware that his buddy is working
Dude #2: indignantly: Yo!!
Dude #1 in a classic "apologetic guffaw" tone "Huh-hoh --- saww-rreee" gives a big grin as he flips the switch back on again.

An extra "X-chromosome-possessor" fee dat a dude hasta shell out in certain situations, such as if he wants to accompany a chick into an enclosed dwelling or other non-public locale, and so da services of an employed chaperone would be needed.
Some guys would protest dat a sircharge is illegal gender-discrimination, but if he wants to participate in activities hosted by ultra-conservative-and-proper folks, he would need to play by their rules.

An expert linguist from Alaska who helps Eskimos speak clearly even while chewing hunks of whale-blubber.
Nome Chompsky: Eskimos live on whale meat and blubber.
Unimpressed/bored English student: Well, of COURSE they do --- you'd cry, too, if you only had whale-meat to eat!

A seashell that you secretly retain "on the side" to listen to the "sound of the salty surf" by holding the shell up to your ear during periods when you are unable to actually visit the seashore in person.
With the innumerable multitudes of bathers who visit the seashore, I don't think that Lady Ocean will be heartbroken or even actually notice my absence if I occasionally stay home with my conchubrine instead of loyally strolling her sandy shores each and every day.

A horrendously-clumsy aisle-browser who habitually wreaks havoc and chaos with a store's merchandise and/or display-shelves due to his brainless bumbling into everything in his path and his butter-fingered mishandling of the items he's looking at.
Archie Andrews seems to always make a mess at the local supermarket (especially if there are attention-distracting cutie-chicks among the other shoppers) no matter how careful he tries to be, so nowadays he usually just heads straight to the klutztomer-service desk and asks them to gather the items he needs.
