First line works, second is silly. Best to get her talking shit about the Slick Richard.:thumb:

A friend of mine swears by lines like those... the cheesier, the better. He claims the trick is to use it as an ice-breaker instead of an actual pick-up. I can't say I've seen it work for him too often though.

I actually never used pick up lines when I was single (course I also didnt date alot.....hmmmm....). I'd have one in mind and approach the female in question, then feel real damn stupid, turn around and go away. The few times I did date, I usually just went with honesty. A simple " I think youre really funny/smart/attractive/etc..., I'd really like to take you to dinner/a movie/etc. usually worked out better for me. I just couldn't bring myself to do the whole "Didn't that hurt when you fell out of the sky?" thing.

Now my college roomate would start at one end of the bar and say to each girl "Nice shoes, wanna fuck?". He got slapped alot, but (to my disbelief) he'd hook up 75% of the time. And not with the skankiest one there either. This guy was dirt poor (college student), looked like he chased parked cars, and was goofy to boot, but it worked for him. I guess the cockiness is what did it.

Oh! Is it from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy? And yes, it's an awesome line.... one of my favourites.

Cockiness always does it.:thumb:

And franziska wins!!!!!!

killerkat -- there was a womanizer of some renown in the Washington, DC scene many moons ago who liked boots. He went up to a girl and said "nice boots, wanna fuck?" and it worked. We made reference to the line in BLT. Various folks picked it up from BLT and it spread from there. I think the initial concept was a combo of "we share a fetish so maybe we would enjoy a roll in the hay" and "I don't even have to try to get laid"

the film is coming out quite soon.

I hope they don't screw up the story... somehow, I'm not sure if it would translate, you know? It would be like trying to write a book of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Some things just wouldn't work...

All the same, I'll probably end up seeing it.

perhaps quoting the poetry of Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings would be even more effective. ......

"The dead swans lay in the stagnant pool.
They lay. They rotted. They turned
Around occassionally.
Bits of flesh dropped off them from
Time to time.
And sank into the pool's mire.
They also smelt a great deal."

I'd guess she doesn't get laid too often either ...

It is from Hitchhiker's Guide, Zaphod Beeblebrox to Tricia McMillan, or Trillian as she's more widely known. Works on me, proves that the guy not only reads, but has good taste in reading material.

Nothing will work if they are wearing a bad toupee...

I knew that too :D

But I wouldn't use that line, I think the person using it might be thought just out of the funny farm or something :1orglaugh :confused:

Here's something I found recently, fun :)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/hitchhikers/game.shtml

I never like the kind of boys that try to pick me up. I like to pick up boys that I can't get... And then seduce them....

It's an act silly. Unattainability is part of every death rocker's repertoire:p:

I think the worst chatup line I ever actually used was

"I want to see you with your shoes off baby!"

The music in the club seemed to fade at that exact moment and I was talking quite loudly. Pretty embarrassing!

Oh you do silly things when you're pissed!

not sure on the final source but the radio quoted some big long research study stating the number one most succesful pickup line is "I can see you and me still laughing together a year from now" (or something along those lines) citing laughing implied pleasantness, and a year from now implying seriousness and looking for more then a one night stand
