    - My girlfriend's a dime and smarter than anyone I know.
ghostoffuffle and I were recently sharing a similar sentiment with one another about our own wives. It's nice to feel that way about the person you spend your most time with.

I've never heard the phrase "someone's a 'dime' before. What does it mean? I assume it doesn't mean your girlfriend is ten years old. Ah... It just came to me, you are saying she's hot, a perfect 10. -makes sense.
