wall street

A place of wealth and a place of death *because* not only is the NY Stock Exchange on Wall Street, but at the end is the Trinity Church cemetary, with a bunch of dead souls. The reason it is named "Wall" Street is because when NYC was just a village, the residents built a WALL out of pallisades (wood) as protection from the wild things in the forests north (around Christopher street).

Damn, one day you're a millionaire on Wall Street, the next you're in the Trinity yard at the other end.

street bangin

Hip-hop music created and played by a radio station trying to attract urban listners, as well as white suburban kids who would like to believe that they are urban listeners, unless you actually put them in the ghetto, in which case they would just run until they got out or got shot trying.

Street Smarts

What John Mulaney was taught by J.J. Bittenbinder all those years ago.

Street-spooner

Someone so desperate for human interaction that they spoon on the street.

“Did you see Henry spooning on the street?”
“Yeah man, he really wants a cuddle”
“What a street-spooner”

streets of rage

Side scrolling beat em up manufactured for the sega megadrive/ sega genesis in the early 90's. Smooth and original gameplay made the game such a hit that a sequel was made, which was even better. There was a third game made, which had more moves availiable, but it wasn't anywhere near as popular as the first two.

Every time I faced the Mona & Lisa bosses in SOR I lost about five lives because I couldn't hit them. It was several years after first playing the game for the first time before i realised that I should stand with my back to them and press B and C buttons together to backkick when they approach. Saves me a few police cars.

street punk

A street punk is the last of a once noble and respectable subculture that's now been almost thoroughly commercialized. Still listens to genuine music made by genuine people without the frivolities of fancy recording equipment and without the shackles of a major record label. A true, untrammelled seeker of freedom. Many are hard drinkers. Most can shoot a boot to your temple faster then you can count to three. They are frequently some of the nicest, most open and accepting people around. But they can still whoop your ass in heartbeat.

Ian is a dyed-in-the-wool street punk, through and through.
