Pick-up Lines for the Poor and Desperate
Who doesn’t need a pick-up line? Frankly speaking, I doubt if anyone uses it successfully though. Just a one-liner to strike up a conversation and score a girl sounds too good to be true in my opinion. For starters, I doubt if it would work except on a drunk blonde maybe but then do you really need a pick-up line for that? Even if it did work, would you honestly like to date someone who is easy enough to fall for a cheesy pick-up line?
Regardless of that, pick-up lines are amusing enough and carry an immense potential for extracting a laugh if nothing else. Be it Howard Walowitz hitting on Summer Glau in Big Bang Theory or just anybody using the line “Is your name Summer, because you are hot?”(bonus marks if her name is called Samar), this line has been around for years.
Let’s just look at what have been some popular arrows in the quiver of pick-up lines.
1. “Do you have a map? Because I think I am lost in your eyes.”
This could potentially result in a brutal cold stare that would clearly be an indication of how the girl just wants you to get “lost” or maybe she’ll just give you a pitiful smile at your feeble attempt.
2. “Life without you is like a broken pencil….pointless”
Isn’t necessarily a typical pick-up line but usable nonetheless. However, it can draw a fair comeback that could go something like you really do need a sharpener, to sharpen your wits.
3. “Is your last name Gilette because you are the best a man can get?”
Doesn’t a girl love to be compared to a foaming gel? I really don’t think we have a winner in this one, Unless of course she really hasn’t heard the next one.
4. “Was it just an earthquake or did you just rock my world”
Could go really badly for you if she just blamed it on an earthquake or actually did rock your world via a slap, which is really very unrealistic but it sounds delectable to write about!
5. “I am lost; will you take me home with you?”
If you can manage to pull off a puppy dog face or an innocent cat face, this could be a money-winner according to the standards of pick-up lines.
6. “You must be tired because you have been running in my dreams all night”
I doubt if anyone hasn’t heard this one before. I can’t imagine myself using this neither do I think anyone would fall for it. The only running she might end up doing will be any direction away from you!
7. “Are you a parking ticket? Because you got fine all over you”
Frankly, I like this one. But honestly, this doesn’t increase its feasibility. Let’s just she isn’t likely to park her car in your driveway after this line…





It was quite a fun Read
cliche pick-up lines never work with girls but if boys try anything out of the ordinary, it works well
Its amusing to talk about them but I have yet to meet a guy who has used or uses pick-up lines to pick-up girls neither have any of my friends been treated to one.
guys never use pick-up lines these days
The most pervy and disgusting yet most amusing pick-up line I’ve ever heard:-
“How would you like your eggs? Poached? Scrambled? Or fertilized?”
LMFAO
really? was that a pick-up line? one can get slapped for using that
I\’m a guy and even I feel violated :O
This KINDA reminds me of the book Ron read about how to please girls or something? and he went “you have a nice way with colors”
that’s not a pick-up line. But what I DO know is that sweet-talk and smart compliments do make girls happy =P
If girls keep giving us such good insight, I am sure boys will upgrade to more effective ice-breakers
thanks guys for reading it!
Hahahahahahaha, tips
You dint include: “Do you believe in love at first sight or should I come in again.”
I actually found it amusing, especially cuz I was imagining you say all of that and bearing the consequences :p
What a fun read!
Oh, really? YOU THINK SO!? Okay then.
Pick up lines still work today even in Pakistan. But to make a pick up line work, you have to build rapport through eye contact and body language. People do wonders.
If you’re picking up a girl at a club or something neither of you is looking to date eachother. You just want to have fun.
I personally save the major compliments for later and just make conversation. I hardly ever use a pick up line, because I rapport whilst in the conversation (So that if I want to back out I can at anytime, makes it easier).
P.S. I’d never use the second line. I’d tell the guy who does, to get a life!
