If you're like us...

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/the-turnstile/monster-ping-pong-rally-will-blow-your-mind--or-at-least-make-you-smile-182642818.html

If you're like us, ping-pong was something you played in a buddy's house after school, and it took about five points for the game to devolve into firing-squad target practice, where the goal was to hit your opponent, not the table.

Could I ask what us means? I'm wondering if "If you're like use" is a common phrase?

"us" refers to a group of two or more people that includes the author. "If you're like us" is a natural and unremarkable phrase. I think "use" was just a typo?

Yes, "use" was just a typo. Sorry!
