notes

  • One theory of the term's etymology follows.

    On old steam engines, there was a governor device that had an arm with two steel balls on each end. This spun around, and as the engine went faster the centrifugal force spun the balls higher and higher. When the engine reached its maximum safe power, the balls would be spinning fast and high. When they reached a specific height, a spring would shut down steam and not allow the engine to blow up (over speed itself). So "balls to the wall" means: as fast as the engine possibly can go.

G

gangster

  • also: gangsta. originally meant gang member, or one who represented a gangster lifestyle, later became a term to describe things that a gangster would be into, like, do or say, and eventually became gentrified and "smurfized" to mean just about anything the speaker thinks is cool, neat, awesome, groovy, gnarly, etc., originally popularized by west coast (U.S.A.) street culture, especially Los Angeles, and brought into the mainstream by Gangsta Rap music & HipHop culture. N.W.A. was one of the first groups to popularize the term outside of L.A. gang culture; gangsta/gangster also describes an assertive attitude towards getting shit done.
