Pick-Up Lines Are Key To Flings, Not Attracting Cherishable Soul-Mate
Published November 23, 2003
4. "Do you have a licence? Because you're driving me crazy."
Caution! Watching too many stupid teen movies impairs your judgement. This probably sounded clever to the person who swiped it from an Annette and Frankie beach party flick.
5. "I gotta thirst and baby, you look like my Gatorade."
Generally, comparing potential dates to food or drinks is not a winning move. " I had a guy use this one on me and I rolled my eyes and walked way," says Susan, a marketing representative who doesn't usually go for lines. "But a couple of weeks later, I saw this hot guy at the gym and I used that same line and it worked! I guess there are gender preferences when it comes to lines. He was really flattered, where I was insulted when it was used on me."
6. "Are you lost? Because heaven's a long way from here."
Maybe angels like this one, real women don't.
7. "Are you religious? Because you're the answer to all my prayers."
Prayer is something that anyone who uses this tacky line desperately needs.
8. "Can I take your picture? I want Santa to know exactly what I want for Christmas."
This line is popular with both men and women who think references to Santa are cute and charming, which are qualities that they never possess personally.
9. "Do you believe in love at first sight or should I walk by again?"
"A stunning woman I had been staring at used this on me," says Mark, a tawny-haired, gregarious copywriter. "I know it's an old one but it took guts to say it. I'm afraid I happily fell for it."
10. "Well, here I am. What are your other two wishes?"
A personal favorite, this one takes a certain amount of arrogance as well as delusion, to pull off.

Ewwww.
Makes me think about when I met Spousal Unit -- in a bar. SU, who is quite shy, had a friend come over to me and say that I was the prettiest girl in the room. I figured, "Hmmm. Delusional. Perfect." Five hours of conversation and one amazing kiss that night led to inseparability. Thirteen years, two kids, and a host of peaks and valleys later, we're still together. And still delusional.



Today's word is "legs," spread the word.
