Poll: Crazy pick up lines people have used on you.

When was the last time somebody tried to pick you up?

 

What are some crazy pick up lines people have used on you in the past?

Re: Poll: Crazy pick up lines people have used on you.

  • I think that last time someone tried to pick me up was last year (though I didn't know that's what he was doing at the time).

    Referencing last year's pick-up debacle, the craziest line was someone calling me "arrogant."  Apparently, here in southern NL, that's considered a pick-up line, because then the girl is supposed to go out of her way to prove she's not arrogant, thus starting a conversation. 

    Basically, I didn't get it, and thought he was insulting me (and, honestly, he very well might have...though we'd only talked for about a minute and a half before he called me that, so I have no idea what I could have done to offend him).  So, he proceeded to tell me that he could tell I was American because I was so arrogant, and I proceeded to tell him that I could tell he was Dutch because he was a rude a$$hole (no, I don't think all Dutch are rude a$$holes, but he was).  Hey, if he can generalize, so can I.  Needless to say...he stopped talking to me.

  • I had an African American man approach me at a bar (after I'd had a few) and say, "You look like you've never been with a black man before..."  I was so flabbergasted that I actually started talking to him and retorted, "Nope, I only date Jewish guys".  He told me I didn't look Jewish so I told him he didn't look black and we had a nice and hilarious conversation.  I later found out that he was some former NBA player who thought he was the ish.  Turns out, the DILF has his kid as a student and he's married--charming (as though I needed any other info on him to figure that out after his creepy pickup line).

  • I think I've posted this before but in college I got slipped a "business card" by a kid as he was leaving the final. I was mortified thinking the professor would think we were cheating but thankfully that didn't happen. But the best part was actually the card itself. His profession was "Giant Robot Pilot", I really don't know what this kid thought we had in common. I suppose I led him on by making it known that I had seen Star Trek before (the course was Sci, Tech and Public Policy and the prof. was a big Sci Fi nerd so it got brought up a lot).
  • A Jamacian guy once slipped a playing card with his hotel room number into my back pocket. I was totally clueless though, when he asked if I would come, I said, "Yeah! Maybe we'll all come over later!" As in me and the other people we were hanging out with. Definitely didn't end up going.

  • When I was 13 years old I was seriously developed (D cup) and I was working with my Dads company. This guy that must have been in his 30s comes up to me and asks if he can take me out sometime. I told him, rather uncomfortably, that I was only 13 and he was taken aback for a moment. Then he followed with "Well, I'd risk going to jail for you baby."

    Needless to say I turned around and walked away XD 

     But the last time someone tried to pick me up was probably a year and a half ago. I was at a bar with my mom watching a friend's band play. This woman comes up to us and starts talking, and then tries to get me on the dance floor. I'm pretty shy and didn't like how she was eyeing me. But my mom actually kept pushing me onto the dance floor with the girl (she was totally clueless at that point) and finally the girl shouts to me "YOU'RE SO PRETTY!" and mom finally got why I was uncomfortable!  

  • Crazy as this sounds, the last time a guy tried to pick me up was Monday. At work. When I'm sitting the belly sits right below the counter. If it hadn't been so busy I would have stood up but he would have kept talking and I really needed him to finish his transactions and move along.

    God, there are so many to choose from. Probably the young guy who was really drunk and told me he was at the local language school.... studying English. That's pretty much the one language that school doesn't teach. ::smack head::
