Jan 2, 2017 QUIT PLAYIN WITH THE SCISSORS AND s--- AND CUT THE CRAP I KNOW ITS BASICALLY A MEME NOW BUT PLEASE JUST THINK HE ACTUALLY SAID THIS WTFFFFF
Jan 2, 2017 You're all hearing it wrong. He didn't say "quit playing with scissors and s---" like literally playing with scissors and a piece of fecal matter. The "and s---" part is like when you're explaining something and want to say "things like that" or "you catch my drift"... Like if he said "He punched me in the face, broke my nose and s---" That s--- thing is a common reference when you're describing something intense. Or like saying "Merry Christmas and all that", could be replaced with "Merry Christmas and s---" So basically he said "quit playing with scissors and all that, cut the crap" but played with the literal meaning of the word s--- there, which is not literal.
Jan 2, 2017 No one thinks he literally said playing with s--- Like you said, it's a common phrase, I'm sure 99% of people understand it lmao it's an embarrassing line regardless of if everyone understands the wording or not though
Jan 2, 2017 And yes actually like Pinochio said above, it IS a double entendre so half of the meaning IS actually him talking as if you are playing with the s-----along with the scissors--literally so you can cut the crap. @Spatula
Jan 2, 2017 I just realized this gotta be the first time ever where Em fans try to ignore the different connections of Em's lines and make them simple and easy instead of being like "OMGzzZzz you guys just don't get the line Em is too smart everything connects this has 1 MILLion meaningss evrything is a puzzle 2 him it's too complicated for simple ears"
Jan 2, 2017 No, no, I'm not denying it means what you say it means, but I don't see that line as extremely bad. The "wake up dead" line is truly horrible.
Jan 2, 2017 I think it's bad because it's a super mundane setup used to deliver a flat out moronic punchline. Recovery Era Eminem did that nonstop.... I GAVE BRUCE WAYNE A VALIUM AND BLAH BLAH BLAH IM READY FOR CALM BAT MAN GET IT COMBAT MAN? Like there's a point where jokes and references aren't funny or clever because you literally have to go out of your way to set them up. That's not being smart or humorous
Jan 2, 2017 Most of the song underground, for some reason it doesn't get a ton of hate but it has some of the WOAT Em lines.
Jan 2, 2017 Here's a really stupid line: "What would make me jump in the tub with a cordless phone (bzzz)" If you jump in the tub with a cordless phone, you're just going to ruin the phone. Nothing would happen to you, cordless phone runs on a battery, like jumping in the pool with your cellphone in your pocket. Silly Eminem ignorant of Ohms Law.
Jan 2, 2017 The underground just spun around and did a 360.. Stupid dropout marshall meant to say 180
Jan 2, 2017 That's not even close to a bad line. Even though he is scientifically wrong, the connotation is there--that something would have to be wrong for you to jump in a tub with a cordless phone, because that's associated with being electrocuted. Man tbh you have such a backwards opinion on good/bad lines (just an observation not meaning to offend)
Jan 2, 2017 IM THE BUTT POLICE AND IM LOOKIN AT YOUR REAR REAR REAR the only real lyricist left ladies and gentlemen..,glad real hip hop fans respect him over these new clowns like Youthful Thug and the 21 Savagepilots
