It’s a person with an explosive personality without causing too much damage. ‘Explosive’ can mean anything from displaying a temper to just being suddenly outspoken.

It means she’s hotter than a hot tamale, but maybe not the whole enchilada. (Though she could be; that’s not impossible.)

It definitely means she’s not a wet blanket. When he gets to know her better, then she may even be ‘da bomb’.

It means she refuses to conform to the societal norms of keeping her opinions to herself! She is usually right too! ;)
