"Check it out, yo!"

From the modeling DVD commentary:

MATT: I sing that "Can you handle my style no you can't handle my style" song a lot. I think maybe I sang it before it was a Strong Bad Email song even.
MIKE: Probably. You tend to sing songs with lyrics that have "style" in them.
MATT: Styles upon styles, Mike.

The word "style" is frequently used in contexts where it doesn't quite belong and has thus become something of a running gag.
