What exactly is "prosting"

[DrummerBoySeth]

I know that this question may make me sound like a total noob, but it has been bugging me enough to ask. I have seen the tab at the top of the page that says "prost this thread" and I would like to know what this means/does. I did some internet searching and found that "prost" is a German toast (much like "cheers" to many Americans) and I was wondering if it is similar to agreeing with a post, giving a "thumbs up", or something completely different.

Thanks for putting up with my ignorance on this one!

Typically here on HBT we don't talk about the "P" word. If you feel compelled to partake in such an activity, you are welcome to do so. But don't say I didn't warn you.

It is the act of massaging the area between ones rectum and scrotum with the intent of relieving the prostate...

Or its an old German toast.

I cant really be sure

It's a "thumbs up" for the thread. The top "prosted" threads are listed at the bottom of the HBT home page.

Dammit! Now I have to clean up the Belgian witbier "that shoot out of my mouth" off of my couch. Funniest thing I have heard all day. After a day like I've had, I really needed a good laugh.

It was discovered by the Germans, but it means a whale's vagina.
