I have no problem with a woman who wears glasses. I think it's sexy to watch her take them off.

I'll have to keep that in mind, next time I meet someone or go out somewhere! ;-)

Hi. I'm someone...

[fortunecookie]

Well, congrats to you. It's nice to hear. More and more people are meeting through the net and the ways to screen for the wierdos have gotten better. I remember a friend, in the mid 90s, who met a guy online and he expected her to be his sugar mama when they met in person. He actually told her that. It ended quickly.

I gave up on the bar scene a long time ago. It got to be comical, because I would laugh (or try not to laugh) at some of the most ridiculous lines. And that's not meant to scare off any nice guys, but at some point one just considers that a line is just a line. The bar scene got old fast, and some of my friends had very questionable taste in men, especially one who sang in a band. Oh the stories.

The best pick-up line is apparel. Wear a golf shirt with some nautical logo on it with a ship's name; then "Captain" underneath the ship's name.

Just make sure it ain't the SS Minnow....

Funniest/strangest one I've ever witnessed being used:

Strangest one I've seen (driven by a dare based on an inside joke):

Walks up to two girls randomly selected in department store: "What do you know about cccccooooorrrrrnnnnn?" (Emphatically, with "corn" drawn way out for emphasis). Turns around, walks away.

Girls giggle, look slightly confused. Then one chases after retreating buddy, introduces herself and gives him her phone number. We were dying the whole time watching this, and needless to say, that is the stuff legends are made of.

It cracks me up just remembering it. Very, very strange, and not something we were expecting to work.

I suspect the SS Minnow would work pretty well...

[KC Burke]

Since I know you both, I'll bet she can still take you down.

[Deb]

1. "Are you wearing contacts?"

2. "If something happens to you...Michelle Pffiefer is #1."

And my fave...

3. "As long as I have a face, you have a seat."

[Mr. Jeeves]

Very, very strange, and not something we were expecting to work.

Yet another good example of confidence being far more important than the actual words spoken.

[mrs. a]

"Wanna pork?"

Hey, I'm a results-oriented gal...

[null and void]

He: So, you wanna screw?
She: Sure!
He: Your place or mine?
She: Well, if you're gonna argue about it, forget it...

[Just another Joe]

I'll bet she can still take you down.

Back then we were just getting ti know one another. She'd have to be really REALLY mad to try anymore.

Hope I don't give her cause! ;^)

Well, it took me a while to get internet dating figured out, however, it's amazing what you can learn about a person through email. My fiance and I corresponded for a month before we finally met.

[vetvetdoug]

I heard one once....Babe, as long as I have a face and you have a butt, you'll always have a place to sit...

[Mordacious]

Yikes. That one deserves a slap upside the head and a drink in the face. Lol.

[Darksheare]

Best line I'd heard?

"Oh, I'm afraid I will have to place you... under arressst."
(Note "arrest" was hissed and somewhat purred.)

[null and void]

BQ?

[Lazamataz]

I’d fight 37 men for a 20% chance to lick the left front lug-nut of the truck that carries your panties to the laundry…

That's my line. I've said it here many times.

Stop stealin' my stuff.

And it's KILL, not fight, and KISS, not lick.

And 10%, not 20.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

I'm not usually that unkind,

Not really a terribly unkind retort. Look, when you around slinging pick up lines you have to be ready for replies ranging from rude to wit to witless to brutal. It was a stupid tactless question anyway.

BTW, if I told you you had a nice body, would you hold it against me? (I know, it's got wiskers.)

[Seamoth]

LOL!!! Good one!

Not exactly a pickup line, but I've been doing a lot of casual dating lately. Most recently, a guy & I were yakking on IM before our actual first date, joking around. He says he spent all morning dressing up, down to polishing his pinky. As this was a late afternoon date at a very casual restaurant, I laugh.

As it turned out, he wasn't kidding. He had given himself a manicure and literally polished his nails.
