Great Pick Up Lines

November 28th 2007 20:58
I was never one for using 'Pick Up Lines' with girls when I was younger - they were all too corny in my estimation - yet (corny or not) they seemed to work for so many of my friends at the time.

It would appear little has changed.

I was hosting a few Gen Y's to lunch yesterday - as part of thankyou for their time and assistance in a project - when the subject of pick up lines entered the fray.


"Ya know - my favourite, is to walk up to a girl and say - Fat Penguin!"

Perplexed and oblivious to this new form of introduction I asked the obvious.

"Fat Penguin?"

"Yeah - Pat Penguin.

"Best way I know to break the ice".

From that point the flood gates opened.

"I Lost My Phone Number - Can I Have Yours?"

"There's a pot of gold in my car - and you have to be in it - to win it"

"You Must Be Tired! You've been running through my mind all night"

. . . and so it went - on and on and on.

So - have you ever used a Pick Up Line? Did it work? Or perhpaps you simply have a cache of corny one liners you'd like to share.

With the weekend coming up - you just never know your luck!

OOOooh Bad!

I was in a fruit shop once and a man asked if he could taste my melons. I burst out laughing.

I think it depends on the delivery. It's only truly terrible if someone takes themselves seriously when they try on a line.

You're kidding me!

Some fella really asked if he could taste your melons?

That's outrageous.

Never worked for me.
I go with the old walk right up and say hi.
Although my friend invented this smooth move. He walks over to a table with 2 girls and a spare chair. He grabs the spare, as if totake it back to his mates and asks "is this seat taken?" When they reply 'no', he promptly sitss down in it and turns on the charmm You gotta have a sense of humour for the cold approach to work.

Hey Andy 2

My luck - I'd have to carry my own chair with me to the table.

More power to your friend.

Lol, yes seriously. I get all the weirdos too. Am I giving out a vibe that tells people I'm ok with this?? I mean, I'm pretty easy going, but it happens all the time!

Lines do not work.
It is like saying:
"Do you want fries with that?"

"I spose a f*#@k is out of the question?"

"Do you prescribe to the public sympathy f*#@k programme?"

"I just found out I am going to die!" ( mumble "in 40 years")

Sit down next to the chamring object of desire and burst into tears...and wait...quietly sobbing into your handkerchief...no snot...

Smile...offer to buy them a drink...be cheery and make amusing small talk...then ask..."Have you ever thought about someone licking you from your little toe to your lips?"

eeewwwww!!!

Of course, these were not my 'pick up' lines...never had one...it was usually unstated in my world; a look was as good as an invitation mostly...and a smile...and then some small talk...then..."lets get outta here"....and you take them back to your house, or they take you to theirs! They then ravish you...in the morning you feel awkward and sometimes abashed, and usually you never see them again...sigh...

welcome to the gay world...as I distantly remember it...

cheers

I tend to agree.

Perhaps we should simply UpSize.

Don't think there's too much different between the gay world and the hetro world my friend.

We're all clumsy creatures of need.

Just some are less clumsy than others.

Stay well old boy.

Thank goodness no corny pick-up lines have been thrown my way, otherwise they would've been met with strong laughter!

DAMO - Lines do work if you have the confidence and charm to continue the oconversation after the line bombs, as they inevitably do. You have to be the most interesting person in the room - which is easy if you have walked straight up and have something more profound than a pick up line to say, and at least seem honest. Try reading 'The Game' by Neil Strauss' Interesting.

This guy once told me he planned on spending the rest of the night stalking me, but that if he could buy me a drink, he'd just share his sick fantasy with me and call it a night. I thought that was really cute. Didn't work, but I got a good laugh out of it, and some great conversation. (not to mention a cold Heineken)

Here are some that have been used on me:

Did you clean your pants with Windex? I can practically see myself in them. ( Unsuccessful but funny)

I seem to have lost my phone number, could I borrow yours? (LAME-O)

You're so hot, you're making my beer warm (No way flagrant...ass kissing is a real turn off)

Hey my name it___________ What's yours? (Always a winner)

Mis :0)
