(there's this guy who's got a hot hair dresser and doesn't want to share her services)
- Hey, I'm in the market for a new hair girl. Could you hook me up?
- I would, but she doesn't like to cut loser hair. I don't want you going to her.
- Why not?
- Because she's mine, all right? Get your own.
(other guy) - You can go to my girl. I mean, she weighs about three bills, but she'll braid you up real nice.
J'imagine qu'il veut dire qu'elle est grosse, mais j'aimerais m'en assurer, n'ayant jamais rencontré le terme bills dans ce contexte là. A moins que ce soit une abbréviation ?
