Cut of your jib

Meaning

One's general appearance and demeanour.

Origin

cut of your jibThe jib of a sailing ship is a triangular sail set between the foretopmast head and the jib boom. Some ships had more than one jib sail. Each country had its own style of sail and so the nationality of a sailing ship, and a sailor's consequent opinion of it, could be determined from the jib.

The phrase became used in an idiomatic way during the 19th century. Sir Walter Scott used to it in St. Ronan's Well, 1824:

    "If she disliked what the sailor calls the cut of their jib."

There may be an allusion between the triangular shape of noses and jibs in the figurative use of this phrase, but this isn't authenticated.

Hmm, thanks for the insight professor, you've given me a lot to think about...

When I have time, I'll write the script up, going to be looking for voice actors such as Twigs and Gwynzer, hopefully we can get the whole community in on this if you guys like it.

Should get in touch with them about this, maybe give some official support from us for their tournament or whatever, as I'm sure many community members would be up for getting in on some of that action. Or get them together with our media team to bang out some more cracking vids.

Watch for all the close up shots such as at 0.50 and 1.00. I would be up for acting if anyone goes ahead with it.

Also, a Mos Espa remake of this would be EPIC http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncC0lOJP … re=related I would love to see a wide shot of stormies sprinting under fire across the open desert to the cover of buildings.
