Yes. Still popular in Korea and the Penobscot region.
Humm. Both lines seem much more sophisticated than mine.
“Are you as desperate as me?”
Now that is pure genius. If it’s not copyrighted, I’d like to try it out.
OMG stop before I spit more coffee on my monitor.
You might be on to something there…
I still think the old line had a lot of potential; great imagery and sophisication. I’m going to keep it in reserve in case the new one doesn’t work out so well.
Keep trying. Practice in front of the mirror. Delivery is really important in these first impression situations.
castaway human sperm receptacle… I like the sound of that. I’ll bet I could build a good pick up line around that.
Damn! I am going to quit trimming my eyebrows.
You could try changing that up to “want to fuck what you’re looking at?”
I had a guy who was all proud of himself about a job he had just gotten, and how much money he was making, and popped off with, “Just try to point out who could be making more money than me in here.” I pointed at the bartender (who was a co-owner of the crazy successful bar I had patronized for years at that point) and said, “Well, him, for starters. He’s a millionaire.” Douche moved on.
One of my favorites, “Well, hellooo sweet cheeks!”
A mate of mine met his wife that way, but perhaps folks were less uptight in the late 1970s.
I met my wife when I beat the shit out of her boyfriend at a party.
Now, to be fair, that wasn’t the first, or last time that guy and I got in a fight.
Those are both really horrible pickup lines.
I dunno. Made me feel kind of frisky.
“I may not be much to look at, but I don’t see any other guys looking to talk to you.”
Don’t be so quick to abandon your insect angle:
“Baby, you look so sweet, I bet you’re covered in ants…”
You’re probably right, although I’ve never used a pick-up line and can’t imagine ever doing so, if I weren’t already married that is, without erupting in a fit of laughter.
There’s a joke in there about Thai lady boys, but I got nothin’.
So, it is Monday. How well did your new pickup line work this weekend?
Experimentation and documentation are the workhorses of the scientific method.
We need to know.
I’ve heard it said in all seriousness that if you just walk up to women and ask “Wanna fuck?”, you’ll get at least one or two takers out of every hundred, assuming you’ve not been arrested long before. Has anyone ever researched this in the field?
I could see the second one working if you’re trying to pick up the sort of women who insist on spelling it “womyn”.
Michael Green, The Art of Coarse Sex, paraphrased: “…and yes, I know the stories about the men who try this and get slapped a lot but also get laid a lot, but the only man I ever knew who actually tried this was suffering from a personality disorder and the few times a woman actually said yes he ran away in a panic. Eventually he was arrested after exposing himself to a woman at a dance…”.
I once sidled up to a girl in a crowded pub and kibitzed on the cribbage game she was playing with one of the regulars. When I stroked her bum (it was standing room only) she responded in kind, and while no actual proposition was made we went for a curry afterwards, then back to her student bedsit where ugly-bumping occurred a little later. But that was just a one-off and I wouldn’t say I recommended it on general principle.
In Surely You’re Joking, Mr. Feynman!, Richard Feynman mentions he tried a very similar tactic. It wasn’t quite as blunt as, “Hey, wanna fuck?” But, it was pretty close. And he had decent success.
Nah, he just turned around the “Can I buy you a drink?” pick-up line to the “Buy me a drink” pick up line. PUAs have been creaming over it ever since.
“You don’t sweat much, for fat girl.”
Wasn’t it a little more aggressive than that? I guess I don’t remember it clearly. I thought he did something more along the lines of Professor Nash in A Beautiful Mind:
