With New Years Eve coming up I was wondering if any Dopers have special toasts that they always use. I don’t really have one but my BF always states “Nice Driveway”
What are your favorite sayings?

I don’t have any special toasts, but I’m curious what the origin of nice driveway could possibly be?
Over the teeth.
Past the gums.
Look out stomach,
Here it comes!
“Here’s hoping the best of 2004 is the worst of 2005.”
I like it because it takes a minute for a roomful of drunks to figure out whether they’ve just been insulted or something.
May your last year be the best you have ever had.
And may the next year make last year pale in comparison.

lol, on more than one occasion mrAru and I have thrown toast at each other…so I would say Rye with butter, but no marmelade=)
<one of our traditions is to spend the evening alone with good movies, a fire in the wood stove, and doing a couple of fondues - chocolate with fruit and cake, classic cheese with toast points[ white, sourdough and rye, typically] and sometimes the potato or veggies from the broth fondue and a chicken broth with shrimp, chicken, artichoke hearts, asparagus tips, baby potatoes [previously cooked so we are just warming them through], broccoli and cauliflower. >
You know he did tell me the story once but as I had to many “toasts” I forgot what it was :smack:
I will defiantly have to ask him tonight.
No special toast for New Year’s here, but I do plan on a long, slow, deep, wet, almost to the point of passing out kiss at the stroke of midnight. In the hot tub. Ringing in the New Year with a hot steaming man in a hot steaming tub. How could it be better?
You just gird your loins and defy him, honey.
“Here’s looking up your old address.” Always gets a laugh.
Here’s to you
and here’s to me
Friends forever, we’ll always be
But if we ever disagree
Then f-you and here’s to me
I love that one. My best friend and I say that together when we’re good and pissed and we always get a great laugh.
Happy New Year everyone!
I usually toast “to law enforcement.” Courtesy of the movie Feds.
None to pleased with November’s election, my toast this year, and for the next few years will be:
To 2008!
None too pleased with November’s election…
Well he said he started it when he owned a bar and several of the regular’s would toast “Nas Drovia” so he replied back one day with “Nice Driveway”
and he has been using it ever since.
I have no idea what Nas Drovia means but I am sure someone will come along and enlighten me
“Champagne for my real friends
Real pain for my sham friends.”
I don’t know where it comes from other than Ed Norton’s character saying it in ‘25th Hour.’
If you are at a small gathering of friends, go round the table and make an individual toast for each of them. Pick a person or two who you can pretend that you don’t know what they want for the new year and cajole someone else in to making “their” toast. It is good fun for all occassions when you work out how to do it. Alcohol and funny friends helps.
An old Irish blessing:
May those who love us, love us;
And those who do not love us, may God turn their hearts;
And if He cannot turn their hearts, may He turn their ankles so we will know them by their limping.
When God made man, he made him out of string.
He had a little left over so he made a little thing.
When God made woman, he made her out of lace.
He didn’t have enough so he left a little space.
Here’s to space.
