Cheeky for a reason

A British saying, meaning to not take life too seriously.
It is rarely used, so many people don't really understand it.

It is also the title of The View's (Scottish indie rock band) fourth album.
"I'm cheeky for a reason" - Meaning that you're crazy, wild, and that you don't take life too seriously. You're cheeky for a reason.

"I might be cheeky for a reason, but I won't lie" - Lyrics from The View's song Bullet.

beyond a reasonable doubt

Outside legal framework it's similar to saying 'I'm either certain or as close to certain as possible'

-inside legal framework, it's a frame of mind, the universal standard of proof used to decide if a defendant is guilty or not. To find a defendant guilty a juror or judge must reach a frame of mind that leaves them with no doubt or at least almost no doubt that a defendant is guilty as charged. Therefore, beyond a reasonable doubt. Information that leads factfinders to this mind frame must be directly related to particular case, not from outlying information unrelated to case in question, usually arising from attempts to tar/slime the defendant.

For all the wrong reasons

You can interject this when using a word that sounds positive, for something that's negative, especially when evaluating the purpose of a messed-up object or when replying to something truly stupid someone told you they did.

If you do the last thing written, it's a clear sign of potential pwnage in you.
Example 1: "When you're a teen life is interesting for all the wrong reasons."

(Interesting stuff when you're a teen: Booze, drugs, what's under other people's clothes, kitten huffing etc.)

Example 2:

Moron: "I just bathed the cat and put it in the microwave to dry it. He exploded just like I thought, but his fur dried up nicely."

You: "You're incredible. For all the wrong reasons."

Example 3:

Gun nut: ..."Yeah, The Eviscerator has everything! With a good aim, you can shoot someone in his spine, blow his brains out AND make him drown in his own blood!

You: "Sure, that thing IS versatile. For all the wrong reasons..."
