In the N.W.A. song Straight Outta Compton

Is the following lyric by Ice Cube meant literally or metphorically?
...The Police are gonna have to come an get me off yo ass, thats how im goin out...

Sorry, but this has been bugging me for about a week now. I'de really like some answers...

For all your ball needs:. Now someone answer to me; how to iron pants correctly with those pointy sharpy things (which name i don't know in English)?

An iron? Or are you talking about the creases? Pants are easy. You just place the iron on the pants and that's it. I don't bother. It's not as if anyone cares whether my underwear is ironed or not.
 
How badly polluted is India?

How frequently do pollutants in India affect the growth of unborn children, and young born children?

I've noticed a slightly higher than average number of oddities in the bodies of Indian people, such as extreme shortness and tiny physical frames. One unfortunate guy who sits nearby me has an extremely high unnatural sounding voice. I just realized today what it sounds like when he speaks in his native language, and it sounds like an angry muppet. He seems to me someone who may have been a victim of some manmade occurrence.

Thanks, creases is the word i was missing - those are pain in the ass to get correctly. "How to iron pants?" search would have been enough actually, but it seems i wanted to do it hard way. Now i'm gonna be professional iron man! :p

According to a friend of the family that went there on business, ridiculously so. But, I have no idea where she went.

I seconded that... I have had several Indian guys in my classes whose voices are about an octave higher than my voice--or that of any of the friends--has ever been... Is there a reason for that?

Semi-literal, semi-metaphorical, but more literal. As a whole, NWA is not known for their metaphors in the sense Wu-Tang is, but rather, their "sense of the street."
 
Is there anywhere (off the internet) where I could get a big box of bouncy balls? I don't want to feed quarters into machines.

Try the $ store.

Why did a 14 year old girl try to pick me up earlier today and not seem phased when I ask how she was and said I'm old enough to be your father?
 
Something to do with the way the ball compresses I guess, and the grip the distorted rubber has on the ground.

Bouncy ball's surface has a high friction and the ball keeps a lot of its kinetic energy (i.e. bounces well). Those are the key factors in the spin. My physics teacher explained that better to my class some time ago.

In the discount store near my summer cottage they sold 'em in packages of 50 or so. That was in Finland, but try searching the toys in discount and department stores or just go to a regular toy store. I think they'll have at least packages of about 10 balls.

That could be just the general genetic make up of people in India. I heard somewhere that all the skeletons of peasants found in India are generally short but very sturdy. Or something like that. There is a good chance I'm talking out of my ass though.

Because you're a stud muffin.

Chances are she's the slutty kind. I've seen quite a few 14 year olds dating twentysomething d00ds. Scary stuff really when you see them in action. It's like the medieval days.

Because you're sexaay.

Well yeah that goes with out saying. You can add charming to that too.

Yeah but I'm not in my 20s anymore. My first thought was its a sting but its a girl I've seen around and I think she lives in the the little 'hood next to mine. From my years of examining the world I'm more inclined to think she has no daddy and is looking for a father figure to love her and she'll take any kind of love she can get. It was just creepy that she didn't even ship a beat when I said I was old enough to be her father.




What ever happened to foil squeeze tubes like tooth paste? Now they are all plastic and I have to keep pushing stuff to the tip instead of just rolling it up from the end.
