Got it's name because people used to give them in exchange for cash to buy drugs or just in exchange for drugs (blow).

This is where it originates, nothing to do with the action itself.

The Buzz Lightyear thing - It's clearly because even if he doesn't know he's a toy, he still is a toy, so he acts like one - It's instinctive.

As far as I know it needs air to cure (ie, what the lay man calls dry) as some components need to evaporate away. This is obviously absent in the tube.

No. In this country, you own the land down to ten feet or something like that. The land below that belongs to the state.

Why does an alarm "go off", when it actually turns on?

Most alarms work on the basis of maintaining an active loop of some kind. When that loop is disturbed it is set to "off" and the siren activates.
So the alarm has been "set off".
