the shins 

A completely kick ass band who isn't afraid to do so. The best band you've never heard of.
"What a fucking good band The Shins are."

greasing the skids 

To consume some type of food or medication in order to unclog a constipated keester such as coffee, prune juice or a greasey steak sandwich.
That correctol I slipped into grandpa's prune juice was just what the docta ordered for greasing the skids! Now he has skid marks that could make all the residents of Shartlesville envioius.

the shins 

A really good, not well-known indie band. Also, the only band I have ever known to feature communist penguins in their music videos.
'Tis true you know. Watch the video for "So Says I".


Really though, The Shins are good.
