Pickup Lines: Our Top Ten Favorites!

I've used this one on a few occasions over the years and it's worked every time. It's a little cocky, but the trick is to say it with confidence, not arrogance: "If you're gonna make a move, you better do it now. I'm leaving in 5 minutes!"

all of these are horrible, except maybe the last one (as long as it was quickly followed up with something else, not just left dangling). i'm really quick on my feet and witty, so all these lame lines would drive me crazy. just come up to me and say "i couldn't help but notice you. my name's ___," and extend your hand. that's the best pick up line in the world. straight forward, no games, says everything you need to without being gross, stupid, or awkward. why can't we just introduce ourselves to people without some gimmick? if you're a great catch, you don't have to try so hard to sell yourself. pick up lines to me say "i'm desperate to sell myself because i know i'm not good enough for you."
forget the lines.
just say hello.

'Congratulations on winning the Gene Pool'.

I feel like all of these are for men to say to girls...but where are the great pickup lines for women to say to men?

1. No. Compliment something about them, not something they own. (But see #3)
2. Never buy a woman a drink until you're on a date with her...unless you like being strung along.
3. Probably the best ever. Shows interest, gets her talking about something she cares about. Perfect. (Note: this isn't about complimenting; it's about using it as a conversation piece.)
4. The easiest way to sound creepy, and the easiest way to get shot down. Never ask a question that can be answered "No." Get her saying "Yes" as soon and as often as possible.
5. Sounds like you're interested in her friend, not her...and may cause her protective instincts to kick in and tell you to get lost.
6. This will work if she immediately finds you physically attractive. If you're willing to play that bet, go for it.
7. Seems to invite the followup "So what happened?" But maybe I'm too jaded.
8. Lame, but innoccuous.
9. Lame and obscure is not generally a winning combination. But apparently it worked at least once.
10. The emphasis on "who" is awkward, but otherwise this one is classic and foolproof.

I , personally, would add (DUCK) at the end of most of these pick up line instructions.

Most girls have seen you long before you've made a move. They know if they like you before you've taken a breath to speak. So:

1. Be positive. 2. For most of us that aren't drop-dead gorgeous, wealthy, or famous, try HONESTY. 3. If they don't respond postively - move on. They won't be worth the effort.

Case in point; There was a beautiful girl that every guy was hitting on. I waited my turn and asked, "Mind if I try to pick you up cuz every other guy has tried?" And yes, she went home with me.

My favourite line:
I'm not good enough for E-harmony but good enough for you!
