Answer: -->
Personal Note -->
This quote is noticeably from The Outsiders, which I personally know as a great book!
But anyways, this is the exact quote:
"Cant you two wait till I set the eggs down before you go shovin' me all over the country?"
Which figurative language device is being use here?
This is a hyperbole, as the meaning of the quote is obvious but it is simultaneously exaggerated at the end of the sentence. A metaphor is different, basically being a simile without the 'like' or 'as' next to it.
