Girl: Do you like Farqhar?
Guy: No, I don't.
Girl: Why not?
Guy: I don't know, I just don't like the cut of his jib.
Guy: No, I don't.
Girl: Why not?
Guy: I don't know, I just don't like the cut of his jib.

The jib is a head sail used for sailing down wind and some say that it is sailor slang for the face. Hence, to like the cut of your jib is a complement as to the shape of your face.
