A term that some american douchebags say to make themselves sound more interesting. This term is abused too much and needs to stop. It is NOT to be used to close a statement, paragraph, as a cocky remark, or in place of "thank you" every time a simple "thank you/thanks" is in order. It is to be used when doing a toast with an alcoholic beverage or ONLY if you are from the uk or australia.

Cheers,

Used often by Brits in different contexts, look at the other definitions posted by others.

Also used by Canadians and Americans, sort of as a way of saying "Thank you and have a nice day" or can just be used as "see ya" or "Thanks."
