To unexpectedly keep a promise, such as to show up for a date/appointment, attend a boring business meeting, pay a debt, or otherwise honor a spoken agreement which the speaker did not anticipate being fulfilled. Is a nod to the famous motorcycle daredevil who prided himself on always keeping his word, no matter what the difficulties or risks.
My buddy had asked me last night if I wanted to go fishing today, but it had dawned kinda damp and blustery, so I’d figured I could just sleep in. Little did I know --- that dude decided to pull a Knievel on me and showed up after all!

While it is indeed a good practice to have your offspring try new foods dat are widely believed to be "healthy 'n' tasty", you should also keep in mind dat everyone's physiques, tolerances, and culinary preferences are different, and so if you truly care about your child's health, welfare, and morels, you should never insist dat he eat mushrooms if he doesn't care for them.

It would probably be difficult for any of our feathered friends to play musical instruments, so I am guessing dat an orkestrel version of a song would consist entirely of just their own throat-produced vocalizations. Since birds of prey are not generally known for being particularly melodious, however, I would question whether da results of said choral group's efforts would be all dat pleasurable to listen to, or whether you could even recognize da tune dat they were "singing".

What an officer or detective says to a distraught lady who is bringing him piles of assorted documents, when all he'd come for was a single facsimile-printer page that is significant to his investigation.
Retired P.I.: Years ago before the advent of the Internet and junk e-mails, I investigated countless instances of over-zealous companies' sending unrequested ads/newsletters to other businesses' printer/phone-combo machines, and so I was having to frequently say, "Just the FAX, Ma'am" when a distraught secretary would be almost-hysterically showing me all the voluminous sheafs of junk-mail that her office was receiving every day.

An abrasively-outspoken critic who derisively slams the ideas/actions of another simultaneously-prominent person who's currently in the public eye.
Tronald Dump is such a blatantly-idiotic a**h**e that he has a record number of contemptorary citizens, both domestic and foreign.

What you do if someone confiscates your medium-sized bottle of Bacardi Carta Blanca and says dat you'll only get it back if you tag along wif him for a while.
I don't drink alcohol of any kind, so I would never have any urge to "follow the liter"; instead, what "floats my boat" is if a hot chick promises dat she'll let me hold her soft warm hands and rub her cute shapely feet sometime later if I accompany her to assist wif one or more tasks dat she needs performed.

A cookout where the grill is fueled by discarded "leggy dolls" instead of charcoal. Could also refer to the blazing-inferno house-fire that the spoiled-little-brat Debbie Jellinsky had seethingly set after receiving (horrors!) a MALIBU BARBIE doll for her birthday instead of the pink-tutu-clad Ballerina Barbie that she'd wanted; no doubt said "incorrect girlie-accessory" got "charbroiled" inside said conflagration, as well.
I stopped by the local landfill a few days after Christmas and was shocked to see all the broken/unwanted "little girl toys" scattered in piles along with other end-of-year-holidays flotsam and jetsam --- there was enough volume of pale-complexioned plastic there to host a bleepin' BARBIECUE!
