You get this for completing a round (set of levels). When you start a round you will be replaying the levels of the round over and over performing different actions in each by interacting with different objects or people - these actions are referred to as gags.
Each level has a different number of gags, and you don't have to find all gags in each level to clear a round - you just need to find the right action or set of actions to "save the day" in each one, so just trying different things each time will easily get you there without a guide. Once you save the day the level will drop out of rotation until you clear the round - after which you can return to the round and play through all levels again to mop up any remaining gags.
You should get this after completing Round 1-A (not sure if you can quit out early and access any other rounds at that point). 1-A contains 5 levels including the train level, house fire, etc. When you arrive at the hub area after the opening bomb jigsaw puzzle sequence, make your way right until you're inside a building and can spend 5 coins to buy a train ticket. Head right and board the train to begin the round.
Level 1, Train - pull the emergency brake.
Level 2, House Fire - drink from the water cooler 3 times then pee on the fire.
Level 3, Space Station - play the guitar to hop in the space ship then shoot the asteroids. You don't have to shoot them all, you just have to not get hit by them.
Level 4, Campfire - kick the tree to the left, pick up the branch and use it on the campfire, then after the scene interact with the burnt guy sitting by the fire.
Level 5, Military Plane - head left then throw the shovel out the plane, beat up the soldier then drag him to the door and throw him out too. Then jump out yourself. When falling interact with the unconscious soldier to get the other guy's parachute. Once on the island pick up the shovel and dig a hole in the middle of the screen.
You'll be taken to a round overview screen and the achievement should pop.

FWIW this didn't unlock on at the end of Round 1-A. And unlike PPGGNAAREA it wasn't a delayed unlock. So pulling from the walkthrough I went into Round 1-B
MOUSE HOLE: Grab the matchstick and interact with the cheese then the mouse. Exit to the right.
LAWN: Wait for the snail to move some and pick up the fly swatter that's behind him. (it swats the fly) Interact with the fly.
BODY: Go down the ladder.
COMPUTER: Interact with the blue piece, the small white piece, then the long white piece.
ANT HILL: Feed the ant on the right 3 times. Go down, then all the way right and all the way up into the nose.
CHESS: Select your opponent and interact with him and knock him out

If you have any feedback please let me know in the comments. A negative vote without any context doesn't help improve things. I'd rather know so I can update/add anything I've missed. I have tidied up some of the intro in the latest update.
