       Pick up lines

       Valentine's day is just around the corner and you're already ...
       - Sad
       - Desperate
       - Having vodka for breakfast
       If you said yes to any of the above, don't worry. Your problems
       are solved!
       I've just had a brilliant idea. Let's share some of the "best"
       (of course I mean the worst) pickup lines we've ever heard so
       that the lonely people can still use them to find a date (you're
       welcome!)

       It seems like you are implying that Vodka for breakfast is a bad
       thing???

       It was not so much a pick-up line, but rather an inventive male
       version of dropping the handkerchief:
       I sometimes take my own shopping basket into the small local
       supermarket. Leave it standing in front of the yoghurt to go
       find some eggs. Come back to see a nondescript guy bent over it.
       He tells me he's been admiring it. Okay. When unpacking my
       shopping at the cashier's desk, I find a bunch of keys in my
       basket. Hand it to the cashier, telling her it's not mine.
       Cashier (who knows everybody in the village by name) holds it up
       into the air and shouts "Peter! How come YOUR keys are in HER
       basket? Is there something going on here I should know about?"

       @Neal and @Nikola
       Sorry for that, it’s just a cultural difference. Living in
       Ireland I am more used to whisky
       Cheers!

       If we are sharing stories…
       Once there was this rock/metal guy interested in me.
       One day, out of the blue, the creature meets me while I was
       reading before class (we studied together) and starts playing
       the frigging violin!
       WTF!
       Everybody started looking and I just wish I were invisible.
       To make matters worse, the song was incredibly long and my
       supplice didn’t seem to have an end!
       By the end of the performance (hallelujah!), still recovering
       from the shock and without knowing what to say, I asked
       “Er… what’s the song? I could not recognise it”
       It was “Fear of the Dark” by Iron Maiden. It’s probably one of
       the most recognisable songs there is and I couldn’t do it, so
       you know how good his rendition was.

       Now this is how the guy tells the story:
       So I bumped into that chick, you know, the one that'd been
       eyeing me up for some time. She's pretending she's reading a
       book so I go "hey, what's up?" And she's like "I didn't know you
       played the violin." And I didn't want to play it in front of so
       many people but she insisted so I played Fear of the Dark,
       people were loving it and she was nodding her head. And then she
       goes "what song was it?" Just like that. A girl who doesn't know
       Iron Maiden? Nooo. That was it, I knew I couldn't go out with
       her.

       The best pickup line I've heard in my life (it totally worked,
       by the way) was "hey, I've got one at home too, wanna see it?"
       said by a boy from my school during our trip to the zoo (it was
       Year 2 or 3 so we were 8 or 9 I think). It turned out that he
       didn't really have a Bornean giant turtle (he had a small
       red-eared slider instead), but you know what they say: you never
       get a second chance to make a first impression.
