"Chick was a dime"

Myrmidon

What does this even mean, though? Dimes aren't that valuable.

IanExMachina

Early pricing for buying live chicks in america.

Beorc

I always assumed it meant on a scale of one to ten, she's a ten.

...Yeah.

IanExMachina

Is a dime like 10p/c in america then?

MousaThe14

It means a ten.

Ah, ninjas.

Bob

I always thought it meant she was tiny and shiny and lots of fun to flip in midair.

All Nines

It's supposed to mean a ten, but it's really like a one out of ten, if you're measuring from a dollar.

IanExMachina

Why not just call it a 10p/c

Bob

So, she's a ten, but only a scale of one hundred?

lol.

Still, "she's a dollar" doesn't quite roll off of the tongue like "she's a dime".

That, and "chick was a dollar" makes her sound like a really cheap whore. Then again, I guess "chick was a dime" does too, if you think about it...

DonZabu

^^ Because "10p/c" is inconvenient to say?

^ That makes her sound like a cheap prostitute. 

All Nines

Using a numerical scale to rate attractiveness is stupid in the first place, I think.

Bob

^^Aren't whore and prostitute pretty much the same?

DonZabu

I believe you edit-ninja'd me there.

Bob

Oh.

Oops. :x

IanExMachina

I dunno similar syllables? 

ten-pee (10p)

A-dime

Bob

"Chick was ten-pee"?

IanExMachina

Obviously back in t'day when all this were field you'd go down t' mine fer a hard days graft, get paid schilling and 6p you'd be able to get pint down t' pub and bus home for thruppence.

So yeah back in t' day it might be better.

It means she's Theodore Roosevelt.

Which, to be honest, is the highest honor you could bestow on anybody.

Dimes aren't that valuable NOW. It's because of the Federal reserve printing baseless money out of thin air that since 1913 the dollar has gone down in value by %96
