the strokes

A very, very kick ass band from NYC. They're by far one of the best shows you can see live.

I went to a Strokes concert and it was BAD ASS

striked

How idiots spell struck or stricken.

Jim: My YouTube video just got copyright striked.
Scott: Striked isn't a word, you dumbass.
Jim: How, If I strike you, than that means I striked you since it's past tense.
Scott: The past tense of strike is struck. Striked isn't a word that exists in any English dictionary.
Jim: reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee you grammar Nazi.
Scott (rolls eyes)

Strokesesque

Anything that is similar to or reminiscent of the style/sound generally belonging to that fuckingly awesome NYC band the Strokes (see Julian Casablancas)

"Did you see that guys sexy, shaggy haircut? So Strokesesque."
"Dude check out my new tight-ass ripped-up jeans! I bought them in the girls section. How Strokesque am I??"
"Damn I wish my boyfriend was more Strokesesque!!!"

Strike the Pipe

'Striking the Pipe' is the art of masking one's fart with a louder noise to avoid detection, named after Andy Dufresne in the Shawshank Redemption striking the sewer pipe when the thunder hit. Stealthfart.

I really needed to fart, but it was neither the time nor the place, so I waited for an opportunity to STRIKE THE PIPE
