I once read (in a porno magazine, ironically) that the best pick-up line is “Jackson Pollock was the first uniquely American painter”. Needless to say, this line has not resulted in a whole lot of nookie; instead it just requires one to explain who jackson Pollack is and why you brought him up for no reason in a bar.
So I’m looking for new pick-up lines. I think I’m going to start using: “I’d love to stay and chat, but I have to go and check on Schrödinger’s cat.”
You expect us to believe you were reading a porn mag? Ok, I’ll play along with your denial.
And I don’t know what kind of bars you’re going to, but if you use the “Schrödinger’s cat” line, she’ll either think you have a friend by the name and will say goodbye, that this is a new euphimism for taking a piss, or that you’re making some weird reference to the kid who plays the piano in the Peanuts comic strip.
Personally, I’d say, “Is it cold in here, or are your nipples always like that?”
Or maybe I’d say something like, “You know I hear the drink the “Screwdriver” got its name from the first one being mixed with a screwdriver. I’d hate to think how a Highball got it’s name.”
Bearing an uncanny resemblance to one Jesus H. Christ (visit http://misfitmagazine.tripod.com/pics/jesus.jpg for proof), I’ve created some specialized pick-up lines for myself. Here they are, for your perusal:
“Wanna go forth and multiply?”
“Hey, I created the missionary position.”
“We all know Jesus comes more than once.”
“Want to hear the Sermon on the ‘Mount’?”
“Who’s your Holy Daddy?”
“Thou shalt lay down with the lamb of God.”
“Everyone knows I can divide loaves. My next trick is to divide your legs.”
I hate to admit it; I think the Schrodinger’s cat one would work on me, but I’ve actually read the trilogy. I don’t think there are very many people who have that would be in a situation in which pick-up lines were applicable. Although as for that, it’s a great pick-up line for weeding out people with whom you don’t have much in common.
My personal favorite has always been:
Me - “Excuse me, do you know what fucks like a tiger and winks?”
Take the lady by the hand and say: If I profane with my unworthy hand
This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this:
My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
Then, you kiss her hand (obviously).
(This was Romeo’s pickup line from R&J)
this is a pickup line a guy actually used on me once, we were sitting on my couch and he said to me “the word of the day is legs, lets go upstairs and spread the word”
