Tenths of the principal of a loan. Especially the kind you get from a loan shark — your legit bank is going to speak in terms of APR instead. F'rill.
Note that “points” are *not* percents. One point is ten percent. This is why definitions of “point” as “percent” get such divided votes… it sounds kind of right, but it isn’t.
Note that “.1” is 10% — this is “one point.”
(If you doubt this, do the math with the example below, from The Sopranos Season 4, Episode 6.)

Ralph: “I won't be able to lend you money for less than two points.”

Tony: “I'll charge you a point and a half. And that's a lot fucking better than Ralph Cifaretto would do.”
—later—
Artie: “Then how am I gonna pay you back? $50,000, it'd take the rest of my life.”
Tony: “It's $51,500, vig-wise, Artie and technically, you already missed a payment.”

A friendly term shared between friends and used to define someone who is somewhat lacking in aesthetics (and probably social acceptance).
May be used to describe someone who has no fashion-sense, someone who has a bad haircut or someone who is just downright ugly, too fat, too skinny etc.

Pointe is when a ballerina is dancing on the tips of her toes. Pointe is usually started when young ballet students are about 12 or 13. You need to have strong ankles, and good technique to be able to go on pointe.
"Your ankles look strong enough to go on pointe," the teacher told Rebeeca.

"My pointe shoes are Bloch Balance European."

The best kind of dance there is. Dancers have special shoes with flat toes to stand on. It requires an incredible amount of time, dedication, strength grace, and pure love of the art. It IS a sport, it IS just as hard as any other sport, and it WILL make you sweat, cry, and bleed. But if you really love it, like I do, you don't care about any of that. You care about the awesome people you meet, the amazing audiences, and the thrilling performances.
