I like the cut of her jib
What exactly is a jib? And why was it cut?
A jib is a type of sail. And I think the cut is talking about the shape. Beyond that I can’t explain.
IIRC, the shape of the jib sail indicated the origin of a sailing vessel, so it could show a friendly ship from a distance.
Yeah age of sail lookouts had incredible eyesight, they had to since every minute you lost determining friend or foe was a minute you’d delay beating to quarters and running out your guns.
I thought the cut means the angle at which it’s hung. Source: This landlubber
It could be. I didn’t feel like looking it up, and that was as close to the answer as I could remember.

Jib is meth they’re saying they like the substances she bulks out her illegal substances with.
Why is your tuna canned, instead of swimming in the sea?
Because it makes for great sandwiches
