When someone says to you that they busted ass, would you assume that they meant that they kicked ass on something or someone, or would you think they meant that they farted?

Hmm... I always thought that it mean you kicked someones ass...

There is also the alternative "busting my ass" which means I fell on my ass...

So I am going for #1.

The context makes the meaning.

But in the example the poll is giving the most used context would be in reference to a Bilabial fricative.

Could also mean to work hard at something.

"I busted ass at work today."

"I busted ass in the salt mines carrying loads of it to the surface and back."

I'm mainly familiar with it used in the context of someone floating an air biscuit. i.e.- walking into a room to discover a rancid stench, leading one to exclaim, "Jesus Christ! Which one of you motherfuckers busted ass in here? I hope you shit yourself."

Busted Ass means you just got your ass busted. Ask any homie.

Hmm... fart or trip/fall down.

I have only heard it used in the example that Buddha shows.

Busted ass goes for doling out corporal punishment as well.

ie...Why are the kids crying? I just busted ass.

I'm pretty sure that isn't what the creator of it intended....but now I'll never be able to look at it the same.

Hahahaha

Thank you all for your input. I can honestly say that before yesterday, I'd never heard it used to refer to gaseous emissions! I've heard it used both in regards to kicking ass and working hard... but farting?


I was sure he was just making shit up. hehehe

Out of both choices I'd have to go for kicking ass.

I've always used it like if Im ice skating and fell, "OMG, I busted my ass on the ice." Once I was being stupid and kicking really high and fell on my butt, and my husband goes, "haha...you busted your ass!"

And then, when I clean and my husband comes home and messes the house up, I'll say, "I busted my ASS all day cleaning..."

Neither. "Busting ass" to me is just working hard.
