Technically, either Johann Strauss the Waltz King or Richard Strauss, the more serious composer who wrote tone poems and operas. Among real musicians, though, 'Strauss' almost invariably refers to Richard Strauss. You are a total noob if you think music festivals and professional orchestras program silly waltzes all the time when you see Strauss in their repertoire.
"Hey, wanna come to my concert tonight? The conductor's amazing, and we're playing Strauss."

"Uhh...I don't know if I care to hear Emperor Waltz or the Blue Danube again."

"Aww come on- we're talking 'Death and Transfiguration' here!"

nice, sexy German last name for an attractive woman
Beginning with "s" and ending with a "double s" gives Strauss a very sexy spelling. Having the last name Strauss can enhance an attractive woman's sexyness.

Strauss Crack

When the thigh on tight jeans gives out resulting in a material tear that exposes ones inner thigh. This generally occurs during wear in public places, although domestic occurrences have also been noted. Experiences are often distressing for the individual involved, commonly leading to embarrassment, anger, frustration, and, ultimately brand boycott.
Strauss Crack 1: OMG, that chick is showing a serious "Strauss Crack".

Strauss Crack 2: When I got off the bus I noticed I had a huge "Strauss Crack".

Strauss Crack 3: I can still remember my first "Strauss Crack". I told my boss I was feeling sick and left work immediately and took a cab home.

Strauss Crack 4: I am never buying those jeans again, they blew a "Strauss Crack" after two months!

Strauss Crack 5: The worst part of being Strauss Cracked is not knowing who's behind you.
