Save Yourself From Disgrace and Avoid the Worst Pickup Lines in History
In the history of love and romance, there have been those that have been experts at the art of seduction and getting to know the most adorable examples of the female species. You have for example such marvelous examples in Casanova, Prince Paris of Troy and Don Juan. And then you have those not-so-fortunate types that don't really go down in history and would turn middle aged before they got a real-life date. But there is a reason for this. If you're reasonably good looking, pretty well educated, and not exactly a beggar on the street, and you're still wondering what the hell you're doing wrong to merit you zero hookups in 1000 tries, then this is for you.
It's probably all in the approach. Or in this case, the disgusting way you probably go about it. The opening line (more popularly known as the pickup line) is effective when used correctly. But when used by you like a caveman uses a club, it can be really funny. Or at the worst really embarrassing. Here are a few pickup lines that have earned the hatred of women around the world:
- 'Is that a mirror in your pocket? Because I can see myself in your pants': Not only is this pickup line extremely offensive, it is unfortunately one of the more popular ones thanks to a few movies. But alas, reality rarely mirrors a movie scenario and you can usually expect yourself to be slapped a couple of times when you use it. So definitely avoid this one, except of course, you're an A-list celebrity. But then you wouldn't need any talking now, would you?
- 'Well here I am, what are your two other wishes?': This is not only an extremely cheesy line that shouldn't be used unless you look like Aladdin or something, but it really gives off that hint of a gynormous ego that most women hate. So if you don't want your love life kicking up sand, definitely avoid using this.
- 'If you were a laser, you'd be set on 'stunning': Lasers may be some of the most important things ever invented by man, but don't even try using them for girl hunting. Trying to appear science smart isn't the best way to get a love life. Just try asking the hardcore nerds.
So if you ever find yourself in the situation to make an impact, don't use these horrible lines. Insteadm, be more genuine and respectful. It works all the time. If you want more examples of absolute disasters when it comes to pickup lines, go
