| RennieLorca | Guys always asking: "Can I pet that?" (my peruvian guinea pig -- when they didn't have a clue what it was) "Can I pet that?" (my stallion or horses) "Can I pet that?" (my wolves, coyote, foxes, etc.) "Can I pet that?" (my dogs and domestic animals) "Can I hug that?" (my trees, my mother) "Can I pet and/or hug that?" (me) I really love great pick-up lines but like smiles better ..... Rennie |
| Misti | I don't remember. I was usually the one approaching the guys. I remember asking Brian if his birthday was in February because I thought he was an Aquarian. Jay gave me a running list of all the cheesy lines he'd used on various women. "Are you tired? 'Cause you've been runnin' through my mind all day long." That's the only one I remember. I read Chris's personal ad at Yahoo. He was looking for a pen pal in the Southwest. I was intrigued because he was from New York. So I sent him an e-mail. He e-mailed me back but I was dating other guys at the time and didn't really pay attention. I had told him about the Blender. So one day I read a poem by this mojave character and I thought,"Damn! He's good." I was so wOwed I sent him an e-mail. I later discovered that he was the New Yorker from Yahoo. We'll be married two years December 29th. |
| spaded | Well, I've only had one pick up line used on me. It was extremely lame and what made it so fun was I had a quick come-back. Very rare for me. He said "Where have you been all my life?" I told him in his dreams if they were any good. I am so proud, but how sad one pick up line ever, and I go out often. |
| scqueen | I had a guy walk by me and whisper in my ear, "You look edible" and keep on walking. Nobody panic, it was about 10 years ago - but it stuck. |
| Liz | "You dance like a dream...and I b et you @#!$! like one, too..." needless to say, that got him nowhere...but my favorite, the silliest and one of the msot famous ever, is the old standby, "Are those space pants? Because your ass is out of this world..." |
| Jon | "You have a girlfriend? Oh I don't mind, let's be friends." Yeah...right. |
| deevaa | Him: Is Osman your boyfriend? Me: No Him: Is Abdul your boyfriend? Me: No Him: Do you have a boyfriend? Me: No Him: How does one apply? Me: Dinner and flowers. Him: Wednesday night ok for you? (yeah it worked, we got married 6mths later) |
| jackryhme | strangest at least... in singapore with friends sitting along a counter along a wall, she and a cuple of others walked in and sat along the same wall just behind me. she leaned back and made herself comfortable against my back and was small and petite enough i doubt if my friends saw, well she smelled good, was soft, warm and beautiful so i found i really didnt mind, after a little while of this she then rubbed a line along her side that was so close to my skin i felt the trail of her fingers along her flesh... not to be out done i did the same close enough to feel the heat of her through my finger tips lol she one upped me by making contact with my side with her hand and rubbing it the same way, i answerd back in kind with my hand on her thigh... now you have to picture this, all this contact was beyond anyones sight under that counter high up on the wall. with us two petting hotter and hotter all the while lol when she grabbed my hand and drug me out of the bar thats all my friends ever knew or saw ... so ... is silence and only touch to be considerd as a pick up line? |
| Kirk | I can't remember any pickup lines in the classic sense of being said by someone I didn't know, though "R" of the R&K Carousel had a penchant for quoting some great lines from other places: "Coffee tea or me?" from an old book I think, and "Take me to bed or lose me forever" from Top Gun. They were part of the reconnections we made from time to time. And in the archive you can see "Have another cherry" from Witches of Eastwick, which I totally missed. |
| Just Some Girl | Did your Daddy go to jail for stealing the stars from the sky and putting them in your eyes? |
| Rhetoric | Never really had anyone try and pick me up before. Hmmm, I thought I was lucky - turns out I am just not a hottie! Oh well...I am not worried. |
| Savannah Haze | Heh heh... I got this one: "Got any Latino in ya? Ya want some?" Then there was the one who used the same line except he said "Irish." Well, I'm Irish so I said, "Um, yeah." He had no idea where to go next. |
| Ali | "Oh my god...I thought I knew, but I don't. So what is your name?" There's a story behind that, but it way too long to type. It happened this morning. *shakes head* Do I have a sign on me that says 'pick me up?' lol |
| equate_me | Here's one: "Do you sleep on your side? - Can I?" I know, stupid |
| Bridget O | "Nice Pants" is always humorous(since i wear very large, baggy pants and..... "So, what do you like for breakfast??" |
| Galadrial | I think I really really need to kiss you. Shut up. (ok...it worked. I kissed him...may he rest in peace...:)) |
| B.K. | On a tour bus once a guy came up to me and said, "I can tell you the exact day you were born. I said ok when and he told me my birthdate which was the same day that he was born. We went out for coffee in between the tour and he showed me his world champion bull riding medal and then asked me to come live on his ranch with him in Florida..ha I had to decline. But what a character. |
| Melissa | Lets see, it would have to be: "Can I check your tag? (meaning the one on my shirt)Just as I thought, made in heaven." There have been alot of those kinds, and everyone had probably heard them all at least twice so I wont go into detail of their cheesiness. But you get my drift. |
| splatipus | "So, which end of the bath do you sit at?" |
| TJ Holland | I was walking to the bank one lunch hour. He was walking behind me, heading the same direction. He was waiting to use the machine (I thought). But when I was done he came up to me, shaking like a leaf and said, "Everything about you is perfect. Perfect. The tone of your skin, your thick curly dark hair, the way you walk, the muscles in your legs, your dark eyes. Everything. I am terrified. I am stunned. I am shaking. Don't say anything, just take my card. You don't ever have to call me, but even as scared as I am, I couldn't let you go without keeping a little hope alive." I have never forgotten the reaction I caused in this man when he saw me. It was the ultimate compliment. And the ultimate lesson on the power of being a woman. And since then I have always thought how truly brave he was to do what he did, considering how he felt. |
