这里的“absolutely great for you”在第1处把具体动作、态度或关系说得更自然。
I met a guy this afternoon that I think would be absolutely great for you.Mighty Aphrodite · 1995 — 第 13 / 15 章 · 4'13" · B2
下雨天,琳达赴约迟到,伦尼却兴冲冲宣布:给她物色到一个「绝对完美」的对象——刚退役的拳击手,如今想当洋葱农民。琳达一听就炸;伦尼却坚持 Just listen to me for once.(就听我一回),还说这姑娘 could have her pick of(随便挑)任何男人。想学「劝人不听」,这几句够用。
雨中,琳达迟到,伦尼却急着报喜:他在健身房遇到一个「绝对完美」的对象——年轻、强壮、健康,刚结束拳击生涯,想找个合适的姑娘一起当农民(他哥在州北有大洋葱农场)。琳达听完差点翻脸:我可不想搬去小镇给人做头发。伦尼劝她 Just listen to me for once.(就听我一回),还保证这姑娘 he's honest and decent(诚实又正派)。转到健身房那头,他又向拳击手凯文推销琳达:说她是个美发师、很 substantial(有分量)、practically, incidentally, a virgin(差不多还是个处女),连前男友都「为国阵亡」。想学怎么「当众牵线、夸到离谱」,这段全是活教材。

I wanna go back up there 'cause I wanna get the hell outta this city.我想回那边去,因为我想彻底离开这座城。 把返乡说成逃离,get the hell out 一带,厌倦和急迫全在口语里。
字面是「把我逼到墙上」,实际是「把我烦死了、逼得我抓狂」。戏里拳击手抱怨上一个姑娘就用了这句。
说 have one's pick of,比如 could have her pick of any guy 就是「想挑哪个男人都行」。
指「疯了、脑子不正常」,加 fucking 就是很冲的说法。戏里琳达听说要嫁去小镇,气得用这句反问。
口语里常指「钱」。戏里说 the last girl cheated me out of all my dough,就是「上一个姑娘把我钱全骗走了」。
本义是「扎实、有分量」,形容人可以指「有内容、不轻浮」。戏里伦尼夸琳达是个 substantial woman。
