i've heard it as a comment about a guy's performance in the bedroom - either as a kind of boast by a guy, meaning 'i may have a small dick, but there's a lot of power behind it', or as a derogatory comment on the size of a fat guy's dick...
never heard it in any other context.

What it ability is that as government assumes further and further of our very own responsibilites for us the extra of a submissive place we are being located into in existence. Take as an occasion the conflict on drugs. The conflict on drugs statistically has pushed up the homicide fee and the fee of drug use in u . s .. that's a right away violation of constitutional liberty. in spite of the indisputable fact that, via doing so the government can eliminate a huge proportion of the voting block because of the fact now they have a number of those "felons" and it may use this as an excuse to eliminate further and further of your rights. we elect WHAT you could positioned INTO your man or woman physique. we elect what's nice for you. at last, you could cornered right into a smaller and smaller place till the government turns you around opens up your lower back and places a battery %. and a microchip interior. Now how enormous is the citizen. We already know they're concentrated on ron paul supporters. we've allowed inner maximum money into the elections technique. All which ability to the wealthy is that there is a race on for one international government and finished administration and power and manipulation of the plenty. George Orwell suggested "the object of money is money. the object of power is power." So do no longer attempt to discern it out. do no longer rationalize it. purely submit a combat against those cowards and by no ability provide up.

You haven't got the right combination for success. you need a bigger nail or a smaller hammer. You don't use a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Do you need an Aga to boil an egg?

It refers to going all out to find a solution to a minor problem. A similar phrase is "making a mountain out of a molehill."
Think of the biggest drama queen you know, and you'll be able to imagine them trying to deal with something trivial in a crazy kind of way.

I have not heard this particular phrase but when I read your question the word Overkill came to mind, like opening a nut with a sledgehammer.

Watch out for your fingers!!
It really describes the risk of overdoing it and causing a lot of damage.
The equivalent of instead of softly asking someone to stop upsetting you - going straight into a shouting match!

Basically going over the top and putting excessive effort into doing something that could be done more simply!
