What's your favorite drinking toast?
I have two:

May You Be In Heaven Half An Hour Before The Devil Knows You're Dead...

And the other, well it's not acceptable in mixed company and will surely be seen by many as misogynistic so if you REALLY want to see it you'll have to highlight the text below this line

This being DU, you didn't really think I'd go there, did you?

1. "Here's to swimmin' with bow legged women!"
It's a line from 'Jaws' that I love just because of how ridiculous I've always thought it sounded.

2. Quint
Here lies the body of Mary Lee
Died at the age of a hundred and three
For fifteen years she kept her virginity
Not a bad record for this vicinity

3. May your grass be green and your tides be high
Not really. I just made that up. I don't drink anything stronger than coffee now days. :)

4. A rhyme I thought particularly amusing as a 20 year old:
"Here's to you and here's to me.
Hope we never disagree.
But if we do, fuck you.
Here's to me."

Helps to be slightly inebriated

6. 350!
So...a dozen of us yanks were having our first dinner in Tokyo.
We each ordered a beer.
One guy says "What's the Japanese toast?"
(It's 'kanpai'.)
None of us could think of it.
He asked our waitress.
She didn't understand.
He held his glass up, pointed to it and repeated the question, "What's the Japanese toast?"
Her face brightened in understanding.
"350!"
The price of the beer was 350 yen.
:rofl:

350! became 'our' Japanese toast from then on.
;-)

9. May those who love us, love us; and those who don't love us, may God turn their hearts;
...and if He doesn't turn their hearts, may he turn their heels, so we will know them by their limping.
