Have you tried the toxic martini? It stuned my beeber.

[Paddlefish]

Let's hear it.

"I see you're drinking one percent. Is that because you think you're fat?"

-Napoleon Dynamite

[SlowBoat407]

"Wait here. I'll bring down the etchings" (Thank you, James Thurber)

[humblegunner]

"There's something I'd like to get perfectly straight between you and me..."

The line that entrapped the love of my life (who is now my wife) was when I first met her. We were having dinner with mutual friends. I sat across from her. As she was about to order, I ripped a menu from her hands and snapped at the waiter "SHE'LL HAVE THE SOUP!".

I'm not usually that unkind, but this man was really bothering me. I'm middle-aged now and watching my daughter go through all this. I don't envy her--at least that part of youth.

The favorite internet chatroom pick-up line: "What are you wearing?"

[Mannaggia l'America]

"I'm glad I brought my library card, because I'm checking you out."

[twigs]

You must have been/are great looking or had a great twinkle in your eye. Do you still order for her? Or order her? :)

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

"All twelve of my personalities agree -- You're a babe!"

[Kenny Bunkport]

"It's only a coldsore."

[cll]

That almost sounds like that story about an old lady, a biker, a bucket, a chicken and an anvil...

Galen: "Every technomage knows the fourteen words that will make someone fall in love with you forever, but she only needed one."

Gideon: "What word?"

Galen: "Hello."

[fortunecookie]

"Your outfit is beautiful. Do you know what would look best on you? Me!"

I've heard this variation: "That blouse doesn't do you justice. You know what would look good on you? Me!" I laughed, but I didn't take the giver of that compliment too seriously, haha. In reference to blouse or dress, I've also heard the 'it would look better crumpled on the floor by my bed' variation. My usual response was an eyeroll and head shake (no).

[SlowBoat407]

You had me at "technomage".

[Irish_Thatcherite]

This one works:

"There is a nice wall on the back of this building.. wanna try it out?"

[new cruelty]

Ah, those were the days.

It puts the lotion on its skin. It does this whenever its told.

[Paddlefish]

"It's only a coldsore."

very nice!!!!!

I was never good at the pickup lines. I'm just glad I met my wife at work, because I was lousy at the party/bar scene.
