tough/hot chick/girl Explanation: I was going to add (or choose your slang) for the target term, but put it here instead. I think of 'pick your poison' to describe how slang is used so differently around the world, so there are many other possibilities. 'Ball' is a positive or highly positive reference, and my understanding is it is very much Stockholm 'cool' slang (at least originally) from say around the 60s. But this is someone (most likely a guy) describing a women/young woman in positive terms. |

cool chick Explanation: In the one reference that comes up if you google the whole of Tina's expression it is actually a female speaking in praise of another female, a DJ on an all women cruise; from an article on QX.se "Sveriges största gaynyhetssajt". |
