I am a translator and often use a translators' forum for any words/phrases I am hesitant about. Today a French translator posted for translation ideas for this phrase (a film she is subtitling), the context being a mother speaking to her rather offbeat and wild daughter about a new boyfriend:
Maybe not enough fire burning under his ass for your tastes, but he'll do for the day?
This is American English and we are all guessing at the meaning of "fire burning under his ass" - I imagine it means energy, passion but am not sure. I know you talk about asses a lot, for some reason
