: Strike me Pink.

: Can anyone explain it's origin and the correct meaning.

: Thanks

I don't know the origin (I'm sure that someone on here will be more help) but the meaning is just an expletive: something like 'stone me', or 'good grief' or any one of hundreds that don't actually mean anything much but are used to express surprise or disbelief.
