    I don't know if this counts and maybe I'm a fucking weirdo, but I always say:

    "To Rose Lip Maidens and Light Foot Lads" when I cheers. Most people think I'm crazy, but it was said. No. I'm not gay.

    A. E. Housman (1859-1936). A Shropshire Lad. 1896.

    LIV. With rue my heart is laden
    WITH rue my heart is laden
    For golden friends I had,
    For many a rose-lipt maiden
    And many a lightfoot lad.

    By brooks too broad for leaping
    The lightfoot boys are laid;
    The rose-lipt girls are sleeping
    In fields where roses fade.

    • Yes, you are gay.
