Hey all,
So the "A request" thread decided to branch into "Pick up" lines and so
I decided to start a new thread dedicated to the question: What is your
Favorite or worst pick up line? The line doesn't have to be your own and you
can choose more than one. I'll start off with a few "Worsts" and my one
favorite pickup line.

Favorite:

This is from the autobiography "Immediate Action" by Andy McNab. Andy is the
psuedonym for one of Britains most highly decorated soldiers and was the
leader of the ill-fated "Bravo-Two-Zero" commando team that was captured and
tortured by the Iraqis during the gulf war. He writes under a false name
because the IRA has a price on his head from his days in "B" Company 22nd
SAS (SAS are the ULTIMATE badasses). The story is that he goes into a pub
and sees a girl that he is interested in (from talking to her at the gym),
problem is that she and her friend are being "Chatted up" by a bloke from
"D" squadron. Andy sees a man selling roses and asks him to deliver one to
the girl he likes with his compliments. She comes over and tells him "Thank
you" to which he replies, "Oh, it's nothing, I was just trying to piss of
that guy you were talking to!" they married about a year later.

Worsts:

(To a stripper) "I shure would like to take you Elk hunting with me!"

(To another stripper) <Old man> Guess what? <stripper> What? <O.M> you win
the prize! <Stripper> Oh Yeah, what's that? <O.M> You're the girl I'd most
like to take home with me tonight!

And the ultimate badass of worsts, from the movie "Suburbia"

<Tom> I think I'd like to fuck your brains out.
<Girl> What?
<Tom> I said, I think I'd like to fuck your brains out!
<Girl> Oh you would huh?
<Tom> Yeah, but it doesn't look like you have any!

Then there's the guy who see a woman looking for a seat. He walks up
to her, says "Let me clean you off a place to sit", and wipes his

These have not worked for me:

o I think about you when I masturbate.
o Let's play Flintstones. That's the game where we make the Bedrock.
o If I rewrote the alphabet, *I* would be next to *U*.
o I'd like to treat you to breakfast... should I call you or nudge you.
o I saw your picture in the dictionary under BA-BLAM!
o Your lips look lonely. Why don't you let them play with mine.
o I lost my phone number. Can I borrow yours?
o Bond. James Bond.
o You must have a keg in your pants - cause I want to tap that ass.
o Nice shoes. Wanna fuck?
o You look... interesting. (This one earned me a slap.)
o Do you believe in love at first sight? No? Should I walk by again?

These have:
o Hi. I'm Bryan. Wanna dance?
o Here's a quarter.... go and call your roommate. Tell her you
won't be home tonight.
o I have only a month to live... (Yeah, yeah. I know.)
o If I said you were sexy, would you hold your body against me? (You
have to say it just like that. That's what makes it funny)
o Wanna see my tattoo? It's not on my ass.
o I feel like Richard Gere. I'm standing next the Pretty Woman. (I
tried this when the movie was popular - it probably wouldn't work
today.)
o So, how does it feel to be the most beautiful girl in the room?


That last one has never failed.

In my defense, most of those I used, not to get action, but to get
a REaction. Sometimes those are more fun.

I am, however, amazed at how often when I say something to get a
rise out of someone will work in the exact opposite way. Not that
I'm complaining. Just baffled, yet intrigued enough to continue
saying things like that.

In fact, I'm headed out to a club in about 15 minutes. I'm planning
on using the BA-BLAM line... Not because I think it will work, but
because I think it's funny.

And if it doesn't, I have the trusty backup ice-breakers.

Somewhere between good and unbelievable. It fluctuates.

Busier than a long tailed cat in a room fulla rockin chairs. I've been
buying a house, among other things.

The trick is sincerity. If it sounds like a line, it won't work.


> You've been missed, Bryan.


I've been here. Just quiet. Peeking out occasionally from the murk
when something catches my eye.

I almost chimed in during a high-profile argument which is better left
unmentioned, but I didn't really have anything useful to contribute.

My parents died three months apart in 1996 of heart attack and lung
clot. Now, take Dana's pecker out of your mouth, wipe your chin, and
go crap your pants laughing about it, Pudslinger. That's about the
level of intellectualism in this Dean Koontz wannabe literary group
that spends about 5% of time OT. No wonder the Dana Virus likes it.

Now that you have invited me to stay so sweetly, I shall stay in this

You get the full credit, of course.

It's surprising how effective this is, even if the guy can only bop around.
My own version (I am being serious now) is: "You look like you are really
enjoying this music, would you like to join the others on the floor?".
Rarely fails, as even girls who don't really dance like to be out there.
Just another of my little anecdotes that kind of proves the point: before
Xmas I'd gone early to one of the local clubs where they had a Rock and Roll
band playing and I am well known. A large group of my workmates came down
later for a pre-Xmas drink, and they were enjoying the music as well so I
started to point out the women I knew would get up with them if they used
that line (because I'd used it on them myself). Even though none of the guys
were dancers (and all the women were), nobody got a knock-back (in having a
dance, anyway:)). It has now given me a reputation at work as a pick-up
artist which I really don't really think I deserve ;).

I think I've been hit on in the grocery store more than any place
else. Or Walmart. One time I was looking at the books in Walmart and
some guy comes up and asks me if I can recommend a book for his son.
He starts telling me all about what his kid likes and I'm just
standing there trying to figure out what the hell he thinks he's doing
when Bobby comes around the corner, puts his arm around me and says,
"Are you ready to go?" LOL I guess it was a pretty cool way to
strike up a conversation but it was just too obvious.

Every single one of them - lots of times. The ones that work I use more
often because... well, because they work.

For the record, my favorite line "How does it feel to be the prettiest
girl in the room?" got me a phone number on Saturday.

Well, more effort went into it than spouting off one line - but it's
a good ice-breaker.

Nope, trolls turn to stone in sunlight for sure, I think Gargoyles are

One of our local supermarkets (where lots of yuppies live) has a system,
that if you have one banana in the child seat of shopping trolley, you are
available to flirt or pick up or whatever. When I work there (occasionally
only) it is so obvious and very funny.

Then again, maybe the guy wanted to know some good book titles to get for his
son?

Not EVERY guy who strikes up a conversation is trying to get into your panties.

HE: Hi. Didn't we go on a date once? Or was it twice?
SHE: Must've been once. I never make the same mistake twice.

HE: How did you get to be so beautiful?
SHE: I must've been given your share.

HE: Will you go out with me this Saturday?
SHE: Sorry. I'm having a headache this weekend.

HE: Your face must turn a few heads.
SHE: And your face must turn a few stomachs.

HE: Go on, don't be shy. Ask me out.
SHE: Okay, get out.

HE: I think I could make you very happy.
SHE: Why? Are you leaving?

HE: What would you say if I asked you to marry me?
SHE: Nothing. I can't talk and laugh at the same time.

Here's a few funnies I found in relation to this topic:

HE: Where have you been all my life?
SHE: Hiding from you.

HE: Haven't I seen you some place before?
SHE: Yes. That's why I don't go there anymore.

HE: Is this seat empty?
SHE: Yes, and this one will be if you sit down.

HE: So, what do you do for a living?
SHE: I'm a female impersonator.

HE: If I could see you naked, I'd die happy.
SHE: If I saw you naked, I'd probably die laughing.

HE: Where have you been all my life?
SHE: Where I'll be the rest of your life - in your wildest dreams.

Jeez. How contrived.


When I'm available for flirting or whatever, I just pull 'it' out
and walk around the store.

Banana.. That's just weird.

Ah! yeah, the shopping carts in the US are built the same way, I thought
that you may have been taling about an actual thing like a "Child safety

It is amazing the number of men who can't, or won't, Bobby will, but
he can't. LOL Drags me around on the dance floor. We have few
opportunities for dancing anyway.

It's so sad that there are so few places to go to dance. I really enjoy
swing dancing, but the only offering is square dancing and only at certain
times of the year. (and not in town, but 45 miles away.)
