on strike

v. 1) engaged in a stoppage of work, services, or other activities, as by union workers to get better wages.

v. 2) to engage in what has become an infamous French pastime

1) The Teachers Union is going on strike due to their piss-poor wages and lack of respect by society in general.

2) Don't go to France in August since the entire workforce is likely to go on strike due to a cigarette shortage, the heat, a bad batch of fromage.

I Got Stripes

Best song Johnny Cash created.

I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders,
Chains, chains around my feet,
I got stripes, and them chains them chains are about to drag me down!

Can't break my stride!

An expression used to express feelings of indifference towards a negative response to ones actions.

Bob: Dude, why are you wearing sunglasses indoors?! You look like a complete douche.
John: Can't break my stride!

strike up a conversation

to make, begin, start, commence

guess I’m just not all that sensible. Then one day I strike up a conversation with a lovely young woman named Angelica at a party who didn’t know what my movie was called, but she knew where I could find it for sure For sure?
