when you meet great joy after passing general laziness or social anxiety
"through my very own effort of crossing the river, i got in touch with a stranger and in the end even recorded a quick song. the rest of my day was very light hearted. which means what i did was right."

This is a pick up line.

You : Excuse me miss can I see you hand, (don't worry I wont do anything to upset you) ( only if she is shy about it)

SHE GIVES YOU HER HAND, PLACE HER HAND INSIDE OF YOUR HAND PALM UP

DRAW A LINE DOWN THE MIDDLE OF HER HAND, AND SAY THIS IS A RIVER.

THERE IS A CHICKEN ON THIS SIDE OF THE RIVER, HE NEEDS TO GET TO THIS SIDE OF THE RIVER

(USE YOUR FINGER TO KINDA DRAW OUT ON HER HAND WHAT YOU ARE SAYING AS YOUR ARE SAYING IT, IT MAKES HER MORE INTERESTED IN IT)

NOW THAT CHICKEN CANT GO AROUND THE RIVER (USING YOUR FINGER TO DRAW WHAT YOU ARE SAYING)

THAT CHICKEN CANT SWIM IT (DRAW IT)

THAT CHICKEN CANT JUMP IT (DRAW IT).

SO HOW DOES THAT CHICKEN GET FROM THIS SIDE OF THE RIVER TO THAT SIDE OF THE RIVER? (DRAW IT)

NO MATTER WHAT SHE SAYS THE CHICKEN CANT GET FROM ONE SIDE TO THE OTHER PERIOD!

WHEN SHE SAYS WELL I DONT KNOW THEN, YOU SAY NEITHER DO I. I JUST WANTED TO HOLD YOUR HAND.

SO TO RECAP HOW IT SHOULD GO. EXCUSE ME MISS, CAN I SEE YOU HAND. OKAY THERE IS A RIVER RIGHT HERE AND THERE IS A CHICKEN ON THIS SIDE OF THE RIVER AND THAT CHICKEN NEEDS TO GET TO THAT SIDE OF THE RIVER, HE CANT GO AROUND, HE CANT SWIM IT, AND HE CANT JUMP IT. SO HOW DOES THAT CHICKEN GET FROM ONE SIDE OF THE RIVER TO THE OTHER? (NO MATTER WHAT SHE SAYS, YOU SAY HE CANT DO IT) (WHEN SHE SAYS I DONT KNOW HOW THE CHICKEN DOES IT) YOU SAY NEITHER DO I. I JUST WANTED TO HOLD YOU HAND.
SO TO RECAP "THE CHICKEN CROSSING THE RIVER" HOW IT SHOULD GO. EXCUSE ME MISS, CAN I SEE YOU HAND. OKAY THERE IS A RIVER RIGHT HERE AND THERE IS A CHICKEN ON THIS SIDE OF THE RIVER AND THAT CHICKEN NEEDS TO CROSS THE RIVER, HE CANT GO AROUND, HE CANT SWIM IT, AND HE CANT JUMP IT. SO HOW DOES THAT CHICKEN GET FROM ONE SIDE OF THE RIVER TO THE OTHER? (NO MATTER WHAT SHE SAYS, YOU SAY HE CANT DO IT) (WHEN SHE SAYS I DONT KNOW HOW THE CHICKEN DOES IT) YOU SAY NEITHER DO I.

When your friend passes out at a party, and you proceed to droop your hanging testicles over his eye sockets and allow them to rest on his closed lids.

Derived from Greek mythology:
The dead would be buried with gold coins in their eye sockets, to pay Charon the ferryman to carry their body across the River Styx and into the Underworld.
1) Man, Sean totally Crossed the River Styx last night at that party.

2) Eric and Patti drank way too much and blacked out. I helped them Cross the River Styx while Ryan took photos.

When someone has fallen asleep in death. The Styx river is a location in Greek mythology. Located in the Underworld, it is a river that serves as a barrier separating the world of the living from the world of the dead.
Larry: "Hey Joe where is our co-worker Kyle? I haven't seen him in a few days, hope he is okay."
Joe: "I hate to break it to ya Larry, but Kyle had crossed the Styx river recently."
Larry: "So Joe went on vacation? Sounds like a chill time if you ask me."
Joe: Sigh..."Kyle has died Larry.... I was at his funeral two days ago. Since his life went a total downward spiral, he must've reasoned it would have been better to do the one way trip down the proverbial Styx river than to be among the land of the living."
Larry: "Damn, I didn't know he was in such a dark place. He seemed to be such a bright & jolly dude. Well, I should pay my respects after work."
