'How about a coffee?' and other boring pick-up lines

The underlying mathematical theory there is that you get slapped nine times and then on the tenth you score.

smooth move! I should tell him to flip it around on 'em..maybe he'll actually get some.

Try not to describe the girl as a tree or a high-class-prostitute may help .

hey! that's not too bad! People have had worse luck.

I know someone who....ah no... not for this family-friendly forum...

i think i know that someone, and the sister!

I've actually used the ice cube one with success after several beers

The barman had already commandeered the bucket for himself

I believe that you are what you eat, and I want to be you by morning.

And yes, I am still single...

I reckon as with a lot of this it comes down to being cheeky enough to say it with a large smile and should not be used at square 1, maybe after 30 mins or so to reduce the slap rate ratio

Personally whilst I would use some of these for comedic opportunity to get said women to wet herself laughing, I'd never wade in with these in a first words setting.

You might as well sleep with me because I'm going to tell everyone we did it anyway.

Nice! I should try this one wearing cheekpads.

I'd recommend an American Football outfit.

Definitely!

Being a fully serious committment kamikaze myself, pick up lines that reek of cheese and scream, "I just want a sh@g", really make me cringe.

I have heard "So, when am I taking you to dinner?" works really well though . Tried and true on the front line, too.

At what stage in the conversation do you drop the line?

So how do you follow up after getting slapped ? Simply retire, beaten, or ....

1. "Would you like to ? "

Wallop

2. "Would you mind lying down while I do ?"

A friend (who shall remain nameless) told me of a technique that was used to good effect by another friend of his...

Approach the girl, and say something clearly offensive such as "Hey! Nice tits!"

She then (almost always) tells you to "F**k off" or similar....you then say "Oh, is that it....? No, it's just that you looked the sort of person who I thought would have something a bit funnier to say, that's all..."

And then, you're in a conversation, and it's all down to you from that point on. Apparently it's got a fair success rate (however I don't think I'll be risking it, I suspect it's not been tested with Gingers...)

"Excuse me, would you like to dance?"

As a Latin-American and ballroom dancer, this absolutely works. I shouldn't be sharing this secret, but it is the best way to meet women. (Don't like "pick-up line".)

And if she can't dance - show her politely, patiently and with simple steps.

I have seen some very unattractive men, become stars by being a gentlemen who show ladies to dance.

But here's the catch:

You MUST really, honestly, genuinely be interested in dancing.

Not to pick up girls.

Women can sense if you are just a prowling, hunting shark. If you focus on dancing, and make that your passion - girls will que up.

I think "Salsa Lover" will testify to this. (Sorry for giving our secret away SL!)
