“GEEZ you’re pale. You can come to my apartment and lay out nude on the balcony.”
Yes, I’m very, very pale-skinned. No, it didn’t work. :rolleyes:
Girlfriends and I almost spit our drinks through our noses laughing at that one. Gotta give him credit for creativity, though. :rolleyes:
No, he clearly meant a drink of any kind. And there was much creepy leering.
He said this in front of about 10 guys (and within earshot of his mother). The guys knew he was a creep, but this made them all stop and stare. Even though they can be fairly crude themselves, they all recognized what a pig the Creep was being and were stunned. I was clueless and just sat there repeating “huh?” Finally, my fiance lobbed a sort of snotty comeback in my defense.
Sorry. Guess the straight dialouge didn’t carry well. In retrospect, his behavior made the connotation clear and I can’t believe I missed it. Caught me off guard maybe.
AAAAAH! Yes. I spelled a word wrong. Yes I feel bad now. Yes you put me in my pklace because I spelled a word wrong. Thank you. I shall cut off my fingers and pluck out my eyes so it will never happen again.
Nope. I don’t go for bleach blonde, make-up wearing, painted nailed co-ed types. I was also married at the time.
Anyway thanks for pointing out my spelling shortcoming and hinting I was trying to pick up these girls. You make the SDMB worth returning too.
You either forgot a comma or mispelled “too”.
Hey, you’re the one who says you returned to the table “shot down and rejected”. That is what people say when they are hitting on someone, not simply asking for them to participate in their drunken conversation about marine life. I obviously mis-interpreted; my apologies.
And for the record, my post was intended to be light-hearted - this is MPSIMS, after all.
“You got a purdy mouth on you boy”
:eek:
In my early 20s, I would use the following as more of an icebreaker with any woman I’d meet, as opposed to a line:
“Hi, I’m tripthicket, how do you like me so far?”
I was never one for pickup lines, but I was also terrible at small talk, once upon a time. I’m better now, but still not great. My worst attempt occurred one night at a bar with a group of my friends. We were at a large table sitting next to a large table of women. All of us guys (except for me) talked almost all of the other table into dancing. Then it was just me and one other woman. I, emboldened by strong drink, slid over and tried to talk to this unfortunate person. She didn’t want to dance, and then my eye fell on the crutches leaning against the wall behind her chair. Blearily, I asked if they were hers. She said yes, and that she had (some disease/condition that prevented her from walking unaided which has escaped my memory). Cheerily, I said, “Oh, that’s interesting!”
She immediately found the wherewithall to grab her crutches and leave.
I have a couple I’ve done with women.
There was a girl in my chemistry class that I thought was cute when I had classes last summer. So after class one day I am sitting at the bus station and I see her walking past. I stop her and ask her something about class saying something like “Did you understand X, because I don’t really get it” so we spend about 2-3 minutes talking about that subject (I can’t remember the subject right now) when I see the bus coming towards the stop. Since this was during summer session the bus only comes once every 20 minutes or so so after I see the bus I say to her “Look, I’ll be honest. I already know how to do X, and I was just looking for an excuse to talk to you but my bus is here and I have to go”. She crouches down laughing at that and walks away saying “I would’ve helped you with chemistry but if the bus is more important”. That was fun in retrospect.
Another was at the plasma center. You aren’t allowed to socialize with others on the floor after you are disconnected from the machines and I saw a girl at another machine I thought was cute. So after I was disconnected from the machine I went over to her and said “Hi, I don’t know you but I’d like to. Would you like to go out for dinner sometime”. She looked kinda shocked, smiled and said she had a boyfriend. I told her it was worth the effort and left. I bet she told tons of people about that one.
Thats about it. I probably have more instances where something odd happened but I can’t remember them right now.
My one and only attempt at a bad pickup line actually worked.
The scene:
2AM, fraternity house basement, many beers had been consumed.
Two girls dancing together. Butler stands alone.
Butler walks over and says to them, “Hey, girls can’t dance alone in this house.”
One replied, “Ok, I’ll dance with you.”
Much dancing (multiple planes) ensued…
I still can’t believe it worked! 
-Butler
LMAO. I should try that one.
I guess I didn’t make it clear on how they reacted. They mistook my drunken silliness as a pick up, and treated it so. They shot me down and rejected me as if I were attempting to pick them up.
I couldn’t care one way or another because, as they say, “I wouldn’t have f**ked them with your dick”.
And with that I think we’ve spent enough time on a post that I shouldn’t have bother making in the first place.
Jay: Hey baby, have you ever had your asshole licked by a fat man in an overcoat?
I’ve always liked saying -
“I’m a necrophile - How good are you at playing dead?” Just to see the reaction. then I usually just laugh and walk away.
Also - “Is this love at first sight, or do I have to walk past you again?” Has always been a favourite of mine. But I would never use it. I hate pickup lines seriously, they always sound so creepy and prolouge-of-an-episode-of-CSI like.
