The least successful line ever used on me . . .
Back in the '80s, when I was all legs and hair and attitude, I was at Emo's, a popular scuzzy club in Houston. I was sitting on the (unused) outside bar, looking at the goldfish in the pond, and a little scrawny guy came up to me and asked, "Are you a guy?"
Mind you, I'm in full-bozo slut makeup and FMPs, and a little red dress so small my dad used to call it my belt. I said, "Why do you ask?"
Little scrawny guy says, "Well, you're sorta hot, and I was gonna talk to you, but if you're a guy I don't think I will."
So I dropped my (already low) voice into baritone and said, "Looks like this ain't your lucky day."
HAH. I remember Emo's (or club Some, depending on the time of day). I don't recall seeing anyone in full-bozo slut makeup, but then again, I don't recall much about that time or place.
Oh, was that you? lol
I've been kicked out of Emo's.
Also the little scuzzier place around the corner with the murals on the fence.
Not recently, though.
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.
